The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2025: Special Edition #2: The Best of 2025

Another year has come to a close… And what do I have to show for it? Posters, posters, posters! Despite my continued battle with cancer and second round of chemo, lasting six months… It has been an amazingly bumper crop for posters this year. Zowie! In fact, instead of 10, I’m gonna share 20 of my favorite purchases of 2025. So sit back and let the poster goodness wash over you. Here we go: DEMONOID : As bad as this awful movie is, you can’t deny that the poster is awesome It is certainly better than the movie itself. It actually has little to do with the movie. Ha ha ha. I was glad to pick this up even though I could’ve bought it years ago at a much cheaper price. I didn’t appreciate the actual artwork because I hated hated hated the movie so much. I’m super glad to have this now and it will be going up on a wall eventually ORGY OF THE DEAD: Zowie! I never ever ever thought I would have one of these. Ed Wood titles are so hard to come by. Yes, this has condition problems Yes, it has ...

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2025 #6

  Welcome back… Oh lordy, did I get myself in a pickle. Oops! Oh crap. And you’d think I would have LEARNED MY LESSON after all of this time. Eeek! There was a recent auction that had lots and lots of things I would love to have, including about a half dozen bucket list titles. Well, I went through and bid on a lot of them during the pre-auction bidding, never expecting to get any of them. Oops. I got several (and as I write this opening bit, the auction is still going—with my bids still on many items!) Yikes! We will see what happens when the dust clears, but UGH! I screwed myself silly. Let’s take a look at the damage… oh my!  (But these first four titles are NOT part of the auction fiasco.) ED WOOD ( Retrospective ): Golly, I do NOT even remember buying this. I noticed it in my eBay purchases. What??? Hmm. Yes, it is a thing I would buy, …but I really was surprised to see I had purchased it. And yikes! It’s a HUGE French g-r-a-n-d-e (Sorry T) poster. Geez! Imago having a gi...

Monster-A-GoGo's Shock-O-Rama Poster Show RECREATION # 150

April 03, 2017, 12:33:22 AM ZOWIE! It's BONUS post time once again. It's after April Fool's Day and it's too early for Easter. What's the occasion? It's the 2nd anniversary of my thread here on APF. Golly, that was a super FAST 2 years. Thank YOU APF members for including me here still. You are an AWESOME group of folks. Really! Okay. Let's see what crap, er...goodies I have this time... RETURN OF THE APE MAN: My 2nd of the 5 posters I won on the recent big Heritage Auction. I've never seen the flick and the poster (and film) look cheap. However, it prominently features BELA LUGOSI and JOHN CARRADINE---so, I went for it. I believe it is my first US one sheet of anything BELA. (Or is it? I really need to work on my inventory/spreadsheet). THE ZODIAC KILLER: Zowie! Here's some sleaze right out of the grindhouse era (and something I have on Something Weird Video, I believe). An early 70s low budget exploitationer. EEK! Because ...
