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 Special Edition #1

Welcome back to the Shock-O-Rama Poster Show . This is a special edition of the poster show. There are no new additions listed. This is about me trying to go through all of the rolled posters I did not have tucked away yet… And the disastrous mess it caused. Last spring, when I was recovering from my cancer surgery, I decided to go through all of the rolled posters I had in tubes that had not been tucked away into my flat files. Oh my God… What a foolish and disastrous undertaking this proved to be. (And I have the really awfully photographed documentation to prove it!) I soon had posters all over the place. In my living room in my TV room and in my dining room. There were posters everywhere. In addition to deciding, which posters to frame for future inclusion on my walls… As soon as I have some free wall, space… I purchased two of the poster-sized portfolios from Baroque Portfolios .  I threw in several posters. I knew these posters would never adorn my walls, because there’s only...

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2020 #25

  Welcome back and a big ho-ho-ho! It's my final poster post for the year. It's not a full listing of 10 posters as I usually do. There are only 8 listings (actually only 7 posters and 1 lot of vintage 3D glasses). Ha! I could have held off...but with the year winding down, I just thought I'd post what I've got and start working on 2021 (should I acquire anything between now and Dec. 31st, that is... Which is doubtful, looking ahead at my schedule). As per usual---for this year at least---there isn't really anything monumental in this batch (although one of the posters has been much sought after for a long while now). My move to Washington state has been delayed until next fall (and that is a long story), so I expect any 2021 posters to be less than spectacular as well (because I'll be wanting to save my pennies for the move---and I don't want to keep re-packing the mess that is my movie posters). Anyway, here's the latest and last batch for the year. Ta...
