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 #17

  Welcome back…  This post is one of the weakest entries of late. That is saying a lot, as the previous entry was pretty bad. However, the next entry will be even more pathetic than this one. I’m winding down from my recent purchases… Finally. I can’t afford anything. But let’s take a look at when I have this time, shall we? This will be quick. SURGIKILL (special) : I’m not sure what this is. It’s only 9 1/2 x 8 1/2“ long. It is some promotional piece for Andy Milligan’s “ SURGIKILL”.  “SURGI-What!?! You’ve never heard of it, probably.  I do not know why, but I am an anti-Milligan aficionado. SURGIKILL Was one of his last movies. It went straight to  video. I caught it on DVD. It’s OK… Certainly nothing to write home about. But I couldn’t not get this piece. It is allegedly from Andy Milligan‘s estate…And was cheap. POLTERGEIST I I: Normally, I wouldn’t bother with sequel posters. But this was part of a lot. So why not? The movie itself… Not so good. THE SATAN B...

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2025 #16

Welcome back. As I write this, the very tail end of my recent poster-buying mania is coming to a close. Well, I still have to worry about auctions on Thursday of this week, it looks like I only have to worry about one poster. Whether or not I get it remains to be seen. However, at the moment, there are two posters in this post. I have one from recent auctions. One of them, the one that I am most displeased with winning, is fairly obvious. The other one, not so much. The one I may or may not win on Thursday? I think that will be obvious as well by what I intend to write about it should I win it, but we shall see. Can you figure out which posters I want in these last auctions before coming to my senses? Of the 10 title shown here two (or three) of them are from those final crazed auctions. TEENAGE COWGIRLS: What the hell was I thinking? On the tail end of my weird cancer buying spree (inspired by my seemingly surviving it—-although I’m not out of the woods yet—while two longtime friends ...

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2025 #14

  And welcome back… With this post, I am hopefully wrapping up all the posters I purchased in my recent mania. ( Actually, as I write this, there are still a few auctions out there. I have bids on that haven’t closed. While I doubt I’ll get anything, there’s always the worry that I will and that those purchases will spill over into another post. Eek!) As per my (sometimes) usual, I’ve got a lot of trash and a few treasures. I also have a very bad headache. So let’s get on with it already… VAN HELSING : This must’ve been a lot purchase. Although it’s based on a character. DRACULA , I had absolutely zero interest in seeing this movie. Zero. TOMB OF THE BLIND DEAD (French) : I have long been a fan of the BLIND DEAD films . To my knowledge, only three of the four were released in the US and have one sheets. The first one, TOMB OF THE BLIND DEAD , was released as just THE BLIND DEAD with a misleading poster image making it seem like a knockoff of NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD .   RETUR...
