The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2025 #1

  Happy 2025!! As I write this, we are four days into the new year. I have not finished collecting whatever ten posters I’ll end up sharing with you yet, but I have a good start. I wanted to begin ASAP just in case I can acquire more posters and get this up before my surgery on January 22nd. It’s a BIG surgery (removing a third of my esophagus, all of my stomach, and re-routing my small intestine to the remaining portion of my esophagus). I might not survive it.  But, welcome to the Shock-O-Rama Poster Show anyway! I hope you enjoy it.  MOANA 2: This was a free one. It has some dings...but was still free. Never saw the movie or the original. The poster shown below is NOT my copy.  RED ONE (Adv?) : I never saw this recent release either. I stumbled on this (inexpensive) poster and was fooled at first. I didn't realize it picture of a poster...and the trompe l'oeil aspect of it appealed to me. So, I got it.  (And did I mention it was inexpensive?) DEATHROW GAMESHO...

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2023 #5

  Welcome back! You are just in time for the next edition of THE SHOCK-O-RAMA POSTER SHOW! As you start to scroll through, you may be thinking "Blah! This is crap." True. True. I do buy crap sometimes (i.e. often), but I also buy a few jewels now and again. Just be patient and keep scrolling, scrolling, scrolling. As usual, I keep the best stuff for last.  But, what am I blabbering on? Let's get started! Roll 'em: BORA BORA: This is a nothing poster, really. I picked it up inexpensively to potentially use in my  future home tiki bar (which is actually happening. The electrician arrived on May 3. The handyman who'll hopefully do the build out will be here on the 12th. Whoo hoo! And yes, it is all being done on the super cheap. Fingers crossed the crap I've saved for years will finally come together as I've planned!). Now that I have the poster, I think I already have MORE than enough beach/jungle/Polynesean/island/ etc. posters for the space, the stairs l...

The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show 2022 #5--NOT Dead Yet

Greetings! The Shock-O-Rama Poster Show is b-a-c-k!!! This time, the posters aren't so great. It's a series of posters for B- (and/or Z-) movies! Yes, it's total trash-o-rama time, a bargain-basement bonanza. (In other words--CHEAP thrills, emphasis on the word "cheap".) O' the horror! Let's take a look... TIME TRACKERS (Video) : I have no idea what this movie is--but judging from the art, it's some time travel comedy. Actually, I don't even remember where or why I got this. I can guess that it was CHEAP though. (I'm all about the cheap these days...) WITCHCRAFT (Video) : A few months back, I scored (if you can call it that) a poster for, I think, WITCHCRAFT III . I have NEVER seen the WITCHCRAFT movies, all ( I believe) were direct-to-video erotic-horror cheapies. (I just looked it up. As of this writing, there are 16 in the series! WHY?) While it might be fun to track the actual flicks down and give them a watch some day (or NOT), when thi...
