The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2020 #16

Oh my... You came back. Uh....  Well... NEXT time, I promise to have some new posters worthy of a visit. This time, by special request, I'm...continuing with the crap "lot" posters I got recently. I know...I know... I promised we were done with them. I had NO INTENTION of posting more. However... In addition to my blog, I place my new poster postings in a variety of places. One of those places is the Classic Horror Film Board . The forum has a movie poster page (of course). It was there that I had this request: "MAGG, don't worry about posting what you think are garbage posters.  One man's trash is another's treasure.  Post away and let us be the judges." Sooooooo.... Here are 10 more "lot" posters--some of the worst (in my opinion) of the batch (and I still had PLENTY to choose from). Take a look or run screaming now. The choice is yours. You are still here. Why? Did someone dare you? There's NO REASON to stick around. H...

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2020 #15

Welcome back. This, I promise, is the final post of "lot" purchases. And let me tell you, I really had to scrape the bottom of the barrel to come up with 10. In fact, some of the ones I ended up going with were going to be relegated to the so-bad-I'll-never-share-them pile. However, I did not have 10 I was willing to share...so several of these shown are coming from that poster dung heap I was trying to spare you from. Sorry. So...what do you say? You were brave enough to visit. Let's get this over and done with. Here we go-go: THE CONTEST: Apparently this is an alternate title for MISS NUDE AMERICA or MISS NUDE AMERICA CONTEST. This is a documentary,  according to IMDB. I would have guessed this was fiction. Is there really a Naked City in Indiana? Ha! This was a lot purchase. THREE ON A SPREE: I had not heard of this flick from 1961 when I got the poster in a lot bundle. I like the old school look of it...but the actors? Never heard of any...

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2020 #14

Welcome back. Today's Shock-O-Rama Poster Show still finds us mired in auction lot purchase poster land...and we have some dismal (and not so dismal) posters to lay your eyes upon...if you bother to proceed. The show is about to start. Please make your way to the theater. No running. Watch your step... WALK OF THE DEAD: It took me a while to figure out what this movie really was. It was an auction lot purchase, of course. I have other copies of this from other lot purchases in the past. But WALK OF THE DEAD? Never heard of it other than the poster. Hmm. I saw the star was Richard Nashy...couldn't find him, but went with a hunch. Could it be Spanish horror star Paul Naschy with a lost-in-translation name? I looked on IMDB and sure enough there it was, listed as an alternate title for 1973's VENGEANCE OF THE ZOMBIES. Mystery solved. SCORE: This was in one of my recent lot purchases. For some reason I've seen this boring (and orange!) poster go...
