The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2025 #21

 

Hi there. Welcome back. I’ve got some new stuff to share…such as it is. Bunch of it is stuff I’ve forgotten to post in the past.There really isn’t that much to see. I kind of rushed through it because of that. Take a look or don’t. I’m not feeling all that fab today anyway so… It really doesn’t matter to me. Oh, the lights are dimming. It’s your last chance to leave. Otherwise, let the show begin…

HENRY & JUNE:

Normally, I would’ve passed on this poster. However, I realized it was the very first NC-17 movie ever released. So, for historical purposes, I thought why not? It was cheap. I never saw the movie though.



THE COMPUTER WORE TENNIS SHOES:
I may already have this. I don’t know. This is one of the Kurt Russell / Dexter Riley Disney flicks from the early 70s. I think they were a continuation of the Tommy Kirk Merlin Jones films… At least that at the same college or whatever, but with the younger actor/character. I’ve never seen them. Merlin Jones films though. I do remember these films with Kurt Russell. The one I wanted the most was. NOW YOU SEE HIM, NOW YOU DON’T. I may have that as well. This is what came my way, so I said why not?


10 CLOVERFIELD LANE  (11x17):
Normally I wouldn’t bother with these little promo posters. However, low and behold, I came across this person selling a bunch of these things and… I got caught up. So expect a lot of 11 x 17’s in the next posting. For now, this is the only one. Well, I did like the Cloverfield sequel… I didn’t need these three. Whatever. Here they are.

ASSAULT WITH A DEADLY WEAPON:
I had this already. This is a poster I got a while back and forgot to share. It’s actually a retitling, but I don’t recall the original title. The skeleton cop is the selling point here. It’s why I wanted it for so long. I really didn’t need a second copy, but…

PIMPLE AT IT AGAIN (English Double Crown):
I got this two months ago and forgot to share it. It, and the one below it, are from 1913. It’s a boring poster and one I will never display… Why buy it? Well, as it is from 1913, it is officially the oldest poster in my collection. I had never heard of the PIMPLE movies before. Apparently, they are shorts.

PIMPLE HAS A TRY (English Double Crown):
Another PIMPLE movie short from 1913. I have no idea if these PIMPLE movies even exist anymore. If you look them up, there were a lot of them made.

LATITUDE ZERO:
I don’t think I have this yet, but I’ve come across it a few times and I know I have a Thai version. But I don’t think I have a US one sheet. I’ve never seen this movie. I’m guessing it’s not as popular as it could be or maybe you should be. It’s probably crap. But the poster art is fascinating to me.

ROMANCING THE STONE (special poster):
I got this a couple of months back as well… I think from September maybe? Or August? It’s a smaller sized poster, but Kathleen Turner and Michael Douglas have signed it. It’s made out to someone named “Cameron” but… eh, why not?


TEEN WOLF:
This is an alternative poster for TEEN WOLF. I still haven’t seen the movies in the TEEN WOLF series, But I haven’t seen the TV show… Which I’m guessing is way different than the movies, which I remember were advertised as comedies. Eventually, I’ll give them a watch.

IT’S A REVOLUTION, MOTHER:
I bought this as a curiosity. There can’t be many copies of this poster floating around. I’d look the movie up. It’s a documentary from 1969 (although the NSS number says 70…or is that 72?). It’s not my type of movie at all, but as I said… This was purely a curiosity and also an investment, I suppose. Dig it. Groovy. Peace out!

That’s my 10 for this time. I warned you it wasn’t that exciting. I have plenty for a couple of more postings… Stay tuned or don’t. Thanks for visiting. I’m sorry I’m in a grumpy mood. Well, it’s not really my mood… I just don’t feel well.
Have a groovy day. Hopefully, I’ll see you next time. Cheers!

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2025 #12

  Hi there. Yes, I’m back again. Really, I was in a weird, crazed buying frenzy recently. I have enough posters for at least one and a half more posts… But I’ll try to pace myself and hold back a bit. These aren’t that exciting. Actually, neither is the next batch. The batch after that has one or two things I’m especially excited about, but we’ll have to see what trickles in to fill the rest of that post up. But I’m getting ahead of myself. We are on this post. Let’s take a gander at it,  shall we? I hope it won’t be too disappointing. Perhaps there’ll be a poster on here or two that you haven’t seen before. THE QUIET EARTH: While I think I’ve heard of this movie before, and I think I may have seen this poster before, I’m not quite sure. If I have seen this poster before, I don’t think I actually owned it. Like my last post, this has a few posters that were part of several lots. No, I am not posting all of the posters in the lots. Not all of them appealed to me. This one, thou...

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2025 #13

Hello. Here we are again. There’s nothing new to see here. Every poster is either VHS-era garbage or something you’ve seen before. There is one outlier that doesn’t seem to belong, but it’s one that I’ve been looking for forever. Even though I wasn’t actively looking for it when I finally got it. Huh? Never mind. Let’s just take a look and see what we have today… CURSE III: BLOOD SACRIFICE (video) :  I don’t know what I was thinking when I decided to track down the posters for THE CURSE series . For those who have never seen it or heard of it, THE CURSE series is a mostly direct-to-video series of horror flick that are NOT related to each other at all, except by title. I have the theatrical (I think) one sheet for the original movie. I’m not sure if I have a copy of the part two poster or not, and I may have copies of parts three and four already… Or not. I am not sure. But here is the poster for CURSE III: BLOOD SACRIFICE. Yes, as you can, guess, it was cheap. Did I see the movie...

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2025 #11

Welcome back. Now that the James Bond stuff is out of the way (see my last post), I can trudge to some B-movie stuff. A lot of this stuff came from lot purchases. I have a lot of these posters already, and have shared them in previous posts. Not all of the posters from the various lot purchases will be shared. Don’t panic. I’ve just decided to share these as a way to look back at these B-flicks and reflect on them a bit. THE MEPHISTO WALTZ: This was an early movie in the 70s satanic panic cycle, that was started with ROSEMARY’S BABY in the mid 60s. If you haven’t seen it, you’re not really missing much. What I do remember most from the commercials was a dog with a human head. Imagine my annoyance when it just turned out to be a dog with a mask on its head that someone placed on it as a joke. There was no “human headed” dog in the plot. Alan Alda I identify so much with being Hawkeye on M*A*S*H, that it’s hard to see him in this movie. At least for me, this is an instance where it’s har...
