Post them here if you please!

Sanctions might be in order. Certainly wouldn't want to step beyond the model of
political correctness. Wouldn't be prudent. Not at this juncture. :P
But of course Gorgo could be a peacemaker as well:

So I was reading a little bit about Elaine Riley when I came across this:
"Pages 18-20 of Life Magazine September 13, 1943 issue one finds an article about Hollywood trying to find the shapeliest "Shadow Girl". In RKO's psychological horror movie The Ghost Ship the leading lady is never seen. Only her shadow in silhouette is seen. To find the shapeliest "shadow girls" the studio dressed several of its stars in skin tight swim suits and had them parade behind a screen"

They got sold for sold for 3,750.00 USD in 2009. (I don't know to who)
I can see where they had House Of Dracula titled "Destiny" during the production stages..this was the go-to title for everything from The Wolf Man through House Of Dracula during Universal's 1940's horror era

I bought my copy of the book back in the '70s, probably off one of the bargain tables at a bookstore. It's still in great condition, even the dj. There were a lot of great hardback books in the '70s covering monster movies chock full of excellent photos and this is one of the best. These books are amazingly affordable to collectors now considering how expensive monster mags and comics are from that period. I have several dozen different hardback (& paperback) monster movie books and they are some of my favorite monster items.

You see, I am actually going to the shelter today to get a cat! ;D It would be nice if some of you could remind me of cat themed movies, or even a comic so I can steal a name from one of them. (I have zero name imagination)
I can only think of Shadow of the cat, cat people, and of course "Black cat".

It was definitely the most visually impressive card set of it's time (and it still holds up today). I heard that they even made a movie or something.

The artwork on the
Mars Attacks cards was by the legendary Norm Saunders. He previously rendered the
Civil War News for Topps:

Quote from: Nosferatu79 on August 04, 2015, 01:37:21 PMI'd also like to know about the rat on the House of Mystery cover.
It's actually a very diabolically drawn cat with the apt name of Lucifer. A man kills his elderly uncle, the cat's beloved master, to inherit the old man's estate. But Lucifer has always been unremittingly hostile to the man and he believes the cat is plotting vengeance against him for the killing of his uncle. The cat's stalking prompts him to grab a rifle and chase the cat which leads him into a patch of quicksand. Lucifer then watches the man sink to his death.

Yes, I taught Lucifer well!

I just discovered that I have this "gem" on one of those "50 movies for ten bucks" sets they sold at Target. If I get a chance, I'll skip to the ending. If I find out "the secret", I'll let you know (but you gotta keep your lips sealed about it...it is a secret, after all).

This thing is all over the place. It's PD and has been beaten to death by several horror hosts as well as showing up on countless PD compilations over the years. It's a Corman cheapy from '61 and the "secret" is that the monster is supposed to be faked in the plot by a criminal to cover his nefarious deeds, but the real monster shows up at the end to give him his comeuppance. Cinematic tripe, but junk some of us thrive on (me included :D).
Thanks Horrorhunter! :)

The book was reprinted in the '90s but I don't think the limited print was ever reprinted. Each one was signed and numbered by Bernie. Mine is #247/350. They turn up on evilBay every once-in-a-long-while and seem to be pretty expensive. I've enjoyed that painting for years looking for all the beasties hiding in the shadows.

Charlton comics are a particular bitch to find. Not only did they not sell well at the time compared to the offerings of competing publishers, but Charlton's production values were so cheap that Charlton comics were even more prone to falling apart after repeated readings/kid abuse.

Quite true.
I recall reading that Charlton had their own printing operation, which probably saved enough to keep them going as long as they did. But, the printing (and especially cutting) jobs on Charlton's books was poor quality, and it showed. This no doubt fueled the perception that Charlton books were substandard, and led to them being more readily tossed in the quarter boxes at conventions in the '70s and beyond. Wear and tear was punishing in those cheap boxes which hastened the demise of many a book. Now, most of the quarter box fare are highly sought after because of scarcity in grade, old monster comics from Marvel, DC, and Charlton, being prime examples.

Looks like either Jack Davis or Frank Frazetta artwork at the bottom of this poster:
It's Frazetta. The top is possibly Gray Morrow.
Yes. That bottom section reminds me of this Mad Monster Party poster that Frank Frazetta did:

They are all great shots .. I especially like "He was Good" ... it's also good to finally find out what happened to or at least where Hoffa is buried.
Yes. Providing discreet burial services for a negotiable fee was all in a day's work for Styx.

"Daniel Kinske, LCDR, USN"...
Poor Jack - he's demoted the Lt Commander into a JG! LCDR's have 2 solids and 1 half-bar, not 1-and-1. tsk tsk... maybe Jack knew something we didn't?!! (That harpoon, after all, is a tad droopy...)

...Wear and tear was punishing in those cheap boxes which hastened the demise of many a book.
One of Hubby's greatest laments is that he's unable to give our children - all the neighborhood in fact - a constant set of comics to paw, ruin, mangle and continue to re-read all of their young lives. He talks about the horror of seeing 10-cent comics explode into 12-cent mags, then 15-cents nearly pushed him over the edge until 25-cent'ers made him realize he was getting too old for comics. And became a collector.
Personally, the $14.95 ARCHIEs are enough to ensure I'd never buy a comic.
An abundance of comics, and baseball cards from backs of cereal boxes. Childhoods must have been great for the baby boomers.
Sorry if I appear to bump this thread by quoting older posts in it - but I just love these threads of pix and posters.
Anyone ever wonder that, if Earth's Women would dress more discreetly, if Earth's doom wouldn't be so constant? And clearly from the Dinosaur CaveWoman pix, we discover bikini'd babes had been created havoc among even dinos eons before now!
And the CREATURE FROM THE HAUNTED SEA costume... lordy... "Let's just pile a bunch of stuff onto someone's head, use a couple of overcooked fried eggs for eyes and make him wear black gloves with needles taped to them! That'll work!" I just love these things...
Bump away, Christine, it's great to read your posts.

The evolving look of Godzilla - great research, and thanks for the dates. I still favor the first two, the Gojira style. Of course, I understand now that it was so incredibly heavy, hot and outright dangerous in water, but still that look remains - for me - the best costumed monster look of all.
Has anyone read books on the Godzilla history? Or its social impact? I've never even looked for those...

Thank you for the praise! I have to say that I had fun while searching the dates and appearances..the different looks almost reflected the cinema eras that they were part of.
Now I'm really in the mood to watch my Val Lewton DVD box. Great pix!

Yeah, something about this time of year kind of evokes the mood that Lewton was so famous for. :)

Quote from: ChristineBCW on October 10, 2015, 09:09:39 AMChildhoods must have been great for the baby boomers.
Indeed they were! Despite the vistas the advance of technology has opened up in the area of video games, I pity the kids who have grown up in the last 25 years or so. Parents have all en masse embraced helicopter parenting. Kids these days don't have a fraction of the freedom to run feral in streets and parks and just play. They don't know it but they've been unwittingly bought off by their parents. The kids have unwittingly traded their freedom for the latest Xbox.
Quote from: ChristineBCW on October 10, 2015, 09:09:39 AMOne of Hubby's greatest laments is that he's unable to give our children - all the neighborhood in fact - a constant set of comics to paw, ruin, mangle and continue to re-read all of their young lives. He talks about the horror of seeing 10-cent comics explode into 12-cent mags, then 15-cents nearly pushed him over the edge until 25-cent'ers made him realize he was getting too old for comics. And became a collector.
An abundance of comics, and baseball cards from backs of cereal boxes.
Did/does your husband have many of these 1962 Post Cereal baseball cards that were included inside boxes of Sugar Crisp?

Some truly quality sci-fi films here.. :)
>An abundance of comics, and baseball cards from backs of cereal boxes. Childhoods must have been great for the baby boomers.<
It was, ma'am! Where to begin...?
- TV: SUPERMAN and THE LONE RANGER in reruns; STAR TREK and BATMAN, in new eps.
- PULP: Besides 12c comics (25c for 80pg, Giants), there was the good MAD, FM, CASTLES OF FRANKENSTEIN, etc.
- MOVIES: cheap Kiddie Shows - on the big screen
- TOYS: GI JOE (the real one), CAPTAIN ACTION, then MEGO
And best of all, the pre-Cyber world, when Reality hadn't been trumped by "Virtual Reality" (what a deceptive phrase.) So, playing imaginative games in the woods and backyard; real neighborhood Trick-or-Treating by moonlight, etc.
Great time to be a kid.
-Craig
Hep, no, he no longer has those Post cards but those are the ones he recalls most favorably. Born a poor and thrifty sort, he didn't mind eating 8 boxes of cereal rather than buying 3 packs of bubble gum for the cards. "They were free! Well, in a way."
He said a lot of the Post baseball cards met a death in between bike-spokes. He re-created that cool sound for our kids' and their friends' bikes with cardboard. Very handy on the local hike & bike trails, too. No need for a steenkin' bell or shout-out's... everyone can hear these li'l monsters on their buzzed-out bikes.
Hubby's only made one trip to the hospital in our 14 years together. I brought him a cactus. He had the nurses gingerly remove it, wearing thicket rubberized bathroom-scrubdown gloves, swearing they'd never touch it to their skin.
He acted like I was trying to kill him! Good grief... me? NEVER!
But isn't it common for women to want to change men?
He snorted and would have turned over if not for those cute li'l tubes and bandages. Trapped. Could not move. I loved that visit.

Weldonmc built most of these for the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles where they currently reside. (I could not have beared to part with them myself.) The "Hold the Pickels" was built for the Johnny Rockets restaurant at the Museum and "TRIXIE" was a custom piece Weldonmc worked upon in conjunction with his deceased buddy Gary Pritchett.

Hep, can you give approximate dates for these items' popularity? Was it pre-1965? Mid-60s? Late '60s?
On THE MUNSTERS TV show, there are episodes where a drag-racer version of their hearse is popularized, and several BEACH PARTY movies have dragster types on display.
Also, there were Iron Crosses on display occasionally, which surprises me since that was a strong German Army sign and they seem to appear within 2 decades of the war's end in Europe. Do you know of explanations for that popularity? Was that a sign of the growing distrust for The Older Generation? Some 'stick in yer eye' lambast?
"Fink" seemed to fade out by 1970, but there is a joke about this word in a Hogan's Heroes episode (about 1968, I think) so it was still in-use or popularly understood at that time. But this Rat Fink character you're presenting doesn't have anything to do with a 'tattle tale' exactly. It's just a wild character, it appears, without any particular slur or social stigma ("are you a fink? a dirty rotten rat fink, telling the screws about our break-out plans?!!").

Revell released the "Big Daddy" Roth custom car and fink kits between 1962 and 1965. The heyday for "Big Daddy" Roth's T-shirt designs may have lasted another year or too, but rock music/hippie culture had superceded custom car culture by 1966-67.
This thread here on UMA is an excellent resource on "Big Daddy" Roth items:

California surfers started using the iron cross as a badge of youthful rebellion in the fifties. It was swiftly embraced by outlaw bikers who thought it would enhance their offensiveness to "straight" society and "Big Daddy" Roth incorporated the iron cross into some of his t-shirt designs. Teens across the States were enamoured of California culture in the early sixties and trends originating with kids in California spread quickly across the country in those days. As a result, by about late 1963 iron crosses had exploded in popularity with teens across North America and they were sold rather widely at country fairs and other places that sold kitsch. I still have one of the two I bought! (The first and nicer one was stolen.)

Great kit, Hepcat
Gasp... you've never built it?!! How can that be possible? How can you sit there, open it, look at those beckoning pieces - "I was MADE to be assembled! Not to be left here, rattling in some box!! BUILD MEEEE!!"
How can you do that?!! Or do you own a model shop and, like one of those evil chocolatiers in Hershey PA, "I no longer have the taste..." Is that it?!!
Thanks for that write-up on the Iron Crosses and Rat Fink notions. It's interesting how the "rebel side" of people manifest their behaviors and decorate them with insignias, logos, etc. Recently, I've found some smokers who have confessed that they started "to get back at ___ an authority figure - mom, dad, etc." Or to "do something everyone said not to."
For the iron crosses, I keep giggling over the idea that, somewhere in the 'burbs of Buenos Aires, there were a bunch thick-speaking immigrants with a funny mustache or two, who saw those and wondered, "Maybe we should move to LA and open a surfboard shop."

It's what I do. I'm a collector of monster model kits among other things. I have the collecting gene. Here are a few pics of the main model cabinet in my monster room from about four years ago:

If you wanted to analyze my behaviour, I suppose what I'm doing is bestowing the entire model shelf on the youngster who once upon a time could only long for any of those wonderful kits he was admiring at the hardware store or hobby shop. But what's the point of analyzing it? I collect these kits because possessing them brings me delight and satisfaction. Case closed. And I wouldn't be here on this board if the collecting gene wasn't part of my makeup.

I think I have an answer in response to your question. Or was that a rhetorical question? Guess not.....
Although I cannot answer for my fellow UMA'ers or who is a collector of model kits. Let me confess my love and obsession for styrene goodness. The box-art and aesthetic of the kits, especially Aurora
model kits are really stunning. The graphics really pop!!
Many years ago when I did have a disposable income( doesn't every collector) I would purchase two of every model kit that I truly liked, salivated, coveted over. Mostly Monster kits that were at time deemed rare. Locating such rare kits in good condition was nearly impossible.
Before the internet, one would have search Toy Shows, estate sales, conventions, etc.
Again, I cannot speak for anyone else and their experience. Only my experiences.

Hep, NO CRITICISM INTENDED by my comments - rather, an amazement at self control NOT to build them. Like I wrote, I'd be FORCED to build them! Compelled. I sew. I get stacks of alpaca and llama wool from our farm. It calls me in the night - children of the night! - demanding that I skein out the wool into layers for sweaters and blankets! (And occasionally to muffle Hubby's abortive cries for help and those pesky 9-1-1 calls if he manages to get the dog to knock the phone off the hook. "Here, boy! Press 9... then 1... then 1 again..." And I'm busy teaching the dog just the opposite. "BAD DOGGY!! Don't listen to yer dad!!")
I mean, I only have so much duct tape for him. I'm not going to waste good duct tape when I could use wool layers to toss over him as the detectives arrive. "That pile of fabric in the corner? Oh, it needs cleaning first - but if you want to git yer hands all mucky, sure, dig thru it..." which of course they never do.

It isn't real, but it would be way cool if it were. 8)
Quote from: ChristineBCW on October 15, 2015, 08:11:44 AMAlso, there were Iron Crosses on display occasionally, which surprises me since that was a strong German Army sign and they seem to appear within 2 decades of the war's end in Europe. Do you know of explanations for that popularity? Was that a sign of the growing distrust for The Older Generation? Some 'stick in yer eye' lambast?
Quote from: ChristineBCW on October 15, 2015, 06:00:28 PMThanks for that write-up on the Iron Crosses and Rat Fink notions. It's interesting how the "rebel side" of people manifest their behaviors and decorate them with insignias, logos, etc.
For the iron crosses, I keep giggling over the idea that, somewhere in the 'burbs of Buenos Aires, there were a bunch thick-speaking immigrants with a funny mustache or two, who saw those and wondered, "Maybe we should move to LA and open a surfboard shop."
I still remember reading an article in
Life(?) magazine in 1964 or 1965 about how already strained relations between the French government of Charles De Gaulle and the U.S. government were being further exacerbated by the burgeoning popularity of the Iron Cross with French youngsters. The French government saw this as yet another but particularly maddening instance of gutter American mass market culture crossing the Atlantic to subvert domestic French mores and traditions.
:laugh:
Hep, spending more than a decade in Paris, you made me laugh out-loud by thinking DeGaulle would blame American influences. DeGaulle, the king of gutter tactics, blaming anyone else for righteous and long-overdue payback. Of course, my claiming to know Parisian social 'skills' should be tempered against claiming to know 'France' similiar to someone from Tulsa or Pullman claiming to know all of America.
But the idea of his baby-boomers taking lessons from the Americans - especially in those early-mid '60s - shows DeG's desperate graspings onto any lifeline of the day as if blaming others could save him from his own behavior's up-close and personal observations by a press corps infamous for sharpening guillotine blades.
I love it. Thanks for that note. I have little stomach for reading more about DeG's so-called life, and that too is a symptom of "knowing Paris". ha ha... (I need to find the caricatures of DeG in Frankenstein make-up... those were fairly constant... arms outstretched, shakily stomping thru the Paris streets... and that was his NORMAL walk, too-!)

It's the tried and true technique of blaming anyone but yourself, particularly if you can find a nasty foreigner to blame.

Apparently a UK poster.
Yes, that poster... of course, since the text doesn't overlap the images, it'd be easy enough to chop it oup around a DVD label. And Sydney Tafler, my my. - as the good doctor. The poster has this dilemma of appealing to lads with either monsters or babes, and we can see which one is the largest image. Alas, the poster is still a bunch of guys and a rocket ship! But that timeless "See the dance no man has seen!" promise/threat should have pulled in a lot of 12-year-olds.
The movie sure wouldn't!
On the more popular poster, the monster and the woman losing her shoulder strap regains front-and-center billing.
(http://wrongsideoftheart.com/wp-content/gallery/posters-f/fire_maidens_of_outer_space_poster_01.jpg)
Fortunately for Earth, that errant shoulder-strap didn't cause risk OUR planet this time, like most beauties' poor choice in apparel does. We surely escaped planetary doom on this instance!

Quote from: ChristineBCW on October 20, 2015, 05:06:47 AMOn the more popular poster, the monster and the woman losing her shoulder strap regains front-and-center billing.
Fortunately for Earth, that errant shoulder-strap didn't cause risk OUR planet this time, like most beauties' poor choice in apparel does.
Methinks shoulder straps should always be errant.

NO NO NO! Hep, have you not flickered thru The Wrong Side Of Art site and realized how many times Earth has been endangered by an errant shoulder strap?!! There must be HUNDREDS of episodes where Your Planet & Mine are barely saved.
Don't you realize we would be MUCH SAFER if ONLY those poster babes would have been more fully clothed?!!
In the EARTH VS. THE SPIDER, we have a perfect example of some babe, lounging around on a downtown sidewalk next to a crack in the planet's surface. With both shoulder straps off...
"I don't want tan lines!"

Yeah... right, babe. No tan lines but what about those giant spider claw marks up and down your back? Who do you think you are, lady - some Jimi Hendrix poster gal? I mean - REALLY-!! There she is, in crosstown traffic, too... sheesh...

You're making the mistake of most weekend warrior researchers though. You're conflating co-incidence with causality. In this case you're assuming that errant shoulder straps are causing (by perhaps luring?) these menaces endangering the Earth.
But how do you know that the cause-and-effect relationship isn't in the other direction? Perhaps the Earth endangering menaces are causing the errant shoulder straps. Perhaps this is all part of said menaces plans to endanger the Earth. Perhaps their underlying scheme is to sap earthlings' will to resist by loosening all shoulder straps.
Moreover consider that all these Earth endangering plots have ultimately failed. Has it occurred to you that it may be precisely these errant shoulder straps that have saved the earth? Could it not be that the hint of the weaponry yet to be unholstered and unleashed defused the threats to Earth's survival?
More dispassionate hands-on scientific research needs to be done to answer these questions.

No no... you're sounding just like my husband. Chained to the dungeon walls. Forget your logic and sensibility. I MUST be right!!
And besides - I have the key to Hubby's manacles! So there-!
I do admit your one argument opens up an new pandora's box - perhaps those errant shoulder straps are merely a lure to creatures who truly aren't capable of planetary destruction, and the Rick Grimesian logic of "Destroy them now rather than wait for Bob to lose more legs" is appropriate.
I mean, there's a reasonableness to this - after all, these '50s films were filling the drive-in and B-movie niche for the baby boomers. What would have happened if those shoulder-straps had remained in place all thru the '50s and into the '60s?
MY generation of '70s types surely didn't deserve sole access to radioactive giant monster appearances. Our older siblings and parents would be soooo angry if that'd have been the case.

A big THANKS also for identifying Neal Adams' artwork. I just knew I'd seen that style before. I'm doing more research into Kirby and Ditko right now, and have simply lost track of Neal's style for a couple of years. His actually a great blend of Kirby's lighting, Ditko's lines and Romita's relative adherence to the human form. I've usually considered his the best artwork in comicdom, although I still like the stylized Kirby and Ditko work. Not real, but so impactful in style. Since I couldn't match Neal's work - without copying (sacrilegious!) - I tend to study more Kirby and Ditko.
Flower, I'm rather fearful of what dance men don't see, frankly. And NO, it's not the damp skin-tights-on-bed dance, either...

You betcha, and an oversized one too. I bought mine back in the '70s from.. Bud Plant, I think it was. I had the good sense not to color the pages, but I bought a print of the Ax Murderer page at a comic convention in Chattanooga around 1980 for 8 bucks that a fellow was coloring there at the show. He used colored markers and did a fine job. That piece is framed and on one of my walls along with my House Of Mystery Cain & Gregory centerspread from the HOM oversized edition and the rest of my Wrightson art.

Dude, DC did some awesome War comics in the late '50s thru mid '70s. I always loved those Haunted Tank stories in G.I. Combat... Russ Heath w/Kubert covers.. great stuff. Sadly, I got rid of my War and Western comics back in the late '70s and never replaced them. Now the nice ones from that period are pricey.
Funny, I remember the really excellent DCs from back in the day being the genres
other than superheroes (except for the Adams stuff featuring Batman, Green Lantern, and Deadman). Most of the non-Neal Adams DC superhero comics struck me as not very interesting in the '60s and early '70s. Conversely, the DC Mystery (Horror), War, Westerns, and offbeat stuff like Tomahawk, Metal Men, and Challengers Of The Unknown was usually pretty great IMO.
Waaaay before my time and, by my time, the ability to locate such comics was more akin to mass awareness of Hoffa's fate. (Could these fates be actually linked together?!! Hmmm). But I don't know Kubert at all. Thanks for intro'ing me to him. That last pix, the blue-faced ENEMY ACE, has some SERIOUS pencil shadings going on. Remarkable. I wonder if the inker did that after inking it, or if the artist did that originally?
OH MY. Joe Kubert. TARZAN! Oh my - I do know him and I used his artwork as an advancement from Ditko into a better linear style. THE Tarzan artist that I grew up with! Du-uh... I just saw "war story" and "Kubert" and didn't think beyond that.
Wow... I need to go back and recheck all of these artist names.

Joe Kubert typically inked his own pencils. That's certainly so on that
Enemy Ace cover.

Hep, thanks for those great comics-covers. Kubert's linearity has such a flow to it that it conveys action, and was (IS) a wonderful style in the fashion art I use - linear human form, draped clothing or breezy waftings. That's what I noticed, when I was a child. It's still a remarkable style.
Memph's stills are wonderful. That Lee-as-Dracula makes me fear that Nicolas Cage is going to see his resemblance in there and feel compelled for some remake. Please, Nic, just do your own Dracula - if you think you can be better than Lee, much less more iconic than Lugosi (no, Nic - you never will be THAT).
Then, there's Lee as The Mummy. The glories of the push-up bra are fully denied when there's the Explode-Out Breast Implants, I suppose... Holy Safety Pin, Batman...
The Curse Of The Werewolf's nose condom looks more like an avalanche sliding down, but the overall look seems to answer the ages-old question, "What would a child look like if Cyndi Lauper and Lady Gag had a son?" So much for transgenderized breeding!
And Herbert Lom's 1962 Phantom is a favorite - brutal to his enemies, and still a harsh taskmaster to his protegé. AND GADGETS, too! Holy 007! This one doesn't extend itself like Chaney's original - sadly.
THE GORGON's got one of the most perfect Stills.
And then THE REPTILE, which allows me to finally able to study her jumpsuit's material. How interesting. Embedded psychedelia! I still can't quite figure out exactly where the Eye Holes (slits, probably) are in that Reptile Face makeup. The Reptile eyes are on the eyebrows, so I assume there was some kind of vision slot or fabric under them, stretched taut to the cheek. "Am I biting her neck, or is this a lamp I've stumbled into again?"
Soon, soon!

Neal generates such great, evocative work. For cover-art, though, I'll still give the nod to Kirby whose bombastic, full-impact covers may have actually been more Inker-based than Kirby's. I can't tell if indeed there is any need to distinguish between the two processes.
Still, those first few years of Creepy-Eerie covers are my favorites for an evocative, provocative series. I can't imagine passing those up had they been available when I was growing up.

The whole world is a circus if you know how to look at it. The way the sun goes down when you're tired, comes up when you want to be on the move. That's real magic. The way a leaf grows. The song of the birds. The way the desert looks at night, with the moon embracing it. Oh, my boy, that's... that's circus enough for anyone. Every time you watch a rainbow and feel wonder in your heart. Every time you pick up a handful of dust, and see not the dust, but a mystery, a marvel, there in your hand. Every time you stop and think, "I'm alive, and being alive is fantastic!" Every time such a thing happens, you're part of the Circus of Dr. Lao.
Love this movie!

Quatermass And The Pit (1967) (aka
Five Million Years To Earth)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0062168/ (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0062168/)
The first two Quatermass films are fun, too, with American Brian Donlevy playing the good profesSOR who can drive up to launch-pads and crash-site in his station wagon, conveniently with their own parking lots.
The first one is a cautionary tale about some silly wives who bring their crash-landed husbands cacti for his hospital room.
"What? No petunias? No daisies?" It's like Dan Aykroyd trying to think of the most harmless thing in the world - the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man - only with thorns. For a while.

Ygor helps the Monster escape from Castle Frankenstein...
If only he'd help him to escape the deep-sea diver's boots, too...
I was looking over Junior's filmography on IMBD and he'd been in 66 films before 1941's starring role as Lawrence Talbot, then putting on those Monster books in this GHOST OF.
That's a great still, isn't it?
He'd been doing Henchman roles for a while - in Westerns, Crime Dramas, SECRET AGENT X-9, some sea adventures, even Charlie Chan and Mr Moto entries. And of course his pretty great performance in OF MICE AND MEN with Burgess Meredith (in that stunning year, 1939 - what an incredible year for movie-going).
I felt rather sorry for the SON OF and GHOST OF audiences - and the stars - because Karloff's great turn in BRIDE made the Monster so much 'more' and none of the other scripts allowed for such a humanizing version until decades later. And maybe not even then (1992's Randy Quaid version is a favorite, and DeNiro's insertion was... well, interesting... but hasn't achieved many rewatchings).
Making sure all is in order for the big night!

While extremely popular, it was deemed too expensive to continue to produce by Hanna-Barbera because of the groundbreaking quality of the animation for an ongoing series. Not only was the series itself excellent, the theme song is one of the best in the history of television.

Agree 100%!
It seems that European horror was behind the mainstream by a few years and when
Gothic Eurohorror struck in the '60s through the '70s the other countries' gothic horror offerings were starting to wind down and would stall in the '70s. Eurohorror from that period is energized with envelope pushing freshness and imagination for that time. Even fan fave Hammer would grind to a halt in the mid '70s, just as Naschy, Ossorio, Franco, Rollin, and several others were involved in some exciting work which still provides enjoyment for the fans of European Horror Cinema.
Here's a Muck Monster Main Event which would have been a blast back in the day.

These look like bathtub toys to me. I can see the commercial with a kid up to his neck in Mr. Bubble holding one of these. ;D

I'd guess that the ideal place for a thread entitled "Post a Favorite Horror/Sci-Fi/Fantasy Images" would be in "General" which we don't have any more. Or maybe in "Memorable Memorabilia"?

Great books, too.
The Game Book, which came out toward the end of Warren's run, is actually tougher to find than the classic Monster Make-Up Hand Book which came out in the '60s, and may qualify to be described as
scarce. My copy of the Game Book was purchased at The Monster Bash in 2001 along with stacks of other monster mags from a dealer named Emil from New York. He had several boxes of monster mags, most in high grade, for pretty cheap prices. I got to his table early and picked out over $700 worth of stuff which he knocked another hundred bucks off of. I got many of my Warren and Marvel mags in that deal in addition to my 3 issue run of Web Of Horror (my favorite monster mag). Good times. ;)

My parents bought me one back in '64 or '65 and I was drooling then. Of course the first thing my 5 or 6 year old self did was rip through that glorious packaging and toss the pieces to the four winds. :'( Some of the loose Pop-Tops on my shelf right now are probably from that very package my folks bought me back in the magic time of Monsterkidhood.
Sometimes I wish I could ride the
Wayback Machine back to those times and yank that unopened package out of my 5 year old hands (along with the boxed Haunted Hulk), and dive
back to the future with my valuable MIP treasures. Then I think..
Nahhh.. I value my love for the stuff even more than the stuff, so I would just keep things the way they are. And, hey.. I still have the loose Pop-Tops and Haunted Hulk to enjoy! :)

Seems like this thread ought to be in the toys section?
The thread was started as a showcase for stills or other images regarding to the films themselves, somehow it got sidetracked to include all kinds of stuff that I also agree should be in another section to tell the truth.. ???
Quote from: Hepcat on January 19, 2016, 04:24:51 PM
I've been posting all kinds of pics right from the start since it was never specified that the thread was limited to movie stills:
???
Yes, but if you look at the initial posts when I started it, it obviously wasnt geared towards including constant merchandising ads and toys..that stuff does belong in another section. It's really just taken the purpose of the thread and turned it into a showcase for people's own collectors items which is not the purpose of this I can assure you.
If Mike wanted to go to the trouble he could change the name of this thread to Post A Favorite Monster Movie Image. Then he could start another thread called Post A Favorite Monster Related Image and move the posts not directly related to films into it. Just a suggestion.
Quote from: Memphremagog on January 22, 2016, 05:56:19 PMYes, but if you look at the initial posts when I started it....
Yes, I saw that you posted pics directly related to movies but that's what I would have expected you to post anyway because that's what you've always liked to do. The wording of both the title and your initial post indicated a much broader scope, however.

As this part of the site has always been directed towards the movies themselves, that's what would have been naturally expected to have shown up there. As mentioned previously, there is a whole other section on this site devoted to merchandising etc..nowhere in my initial post did I say post toys, comic covers, books, etc..as there already exists an entire section devoted to these types of things as does this one for the movies themselves. It's common sense really. 8)
It's been fun for me to see all of these in one single place, although this is an issue of laziness that allowed me, as a newbie, to ignore the UMA's vast central section of sub-forums that offer thousands' more images of artifacts that might be interesting for me.
I think I use "difficulty of navigating back to Last-Read Page" on the hundred(s) pages threads. It's easy to go to First Or Last, but in a 150-page thread, it's difficult to hop to my last-read page of 48, or 117, or 94. First page, Last page - that's easy to do, but it's a navigation chore to read in 30-40 pages, quit, and then page thru so many pages until I manage to re-locate the Last Read one.
That begs the "Many threads with fewer pages" - ie, a more targeted, limiited thread-content enforcement.
As if I'd ever be succinct and disciplined myself! :P

I didn't dislike Dracula's Daughter. It's kind of a downer because you just end up feeling bad for her most of the movie. I feel like she should have gotten her badass vampire scene and thrown Sandor around some.
Barbara Leigh as the Hammer Vampirella we should have gotten (instead of that 1996 Wynorski travesty).

A sweetheart of a gal. I interviewed her after she did her first convention appearance in the mid-'90s at Chiller Theatre. I don't remember which magazine the interview ran in ... it might have been Femme Fatales or Chiller Theatre. She had the Vampirella with her on a mannequin. I asked her how much it would take to get her to put it on and model it again, because she was still in damn good shape at the time. She said $1,500. Well, I went to several vendors and just about had the money raised, when she changed her mind!

Yes, absolutely! When I told her I was just $300 short of having the $1500, she claimed, "Oh, I didn't think you were serious!" A lot of disappointed folks, let me tell you.

There have been some great ones.. Valley Of Gwangi, When Dinosaurs Ruled The Earth, Beast From 20,000 Fathoms, but One Million Years B.C. is the icon.
Too bad they never made a live action film adaptation of the Gold Key Turok comic book with Ray Harryhausen dynamation. Man, that would have been a Dinokid dream. 8)

The Ghost Galleon (aka Horror Of The Zombies) get's a bad rap from some because of the cheap special effects at the end with the burning ship. Amando de Ossorio was working on a very tight budget and was extremely limited concerning special effects. I think he did an excellent job, and GG remains one of my favorite horror movies. Besides, it reminds me of my favorite childhood toy, the MPC Haunted Hulk. :)

(THE GORGON photo reminds me of the hilarious antic Hubby pulled on his sister - he signed her name to that photo, in an autograph style - "000 XXX, ___" and put it on the mantle before she visited. She laughed and howled and kicked up the appropriate fuss. But she got him back. She had some friends visit her widdle brother a few years later with signed adoption papers - she'd put him up for adoption. At Age 40. He is mostly angered: "I'll never be able to outdo THAT antic!" There is no telling which of them started these, either.)

MAD DOCTOR OF BLOOD ISLAND (1969) - we've all heard of Leatherface, who didn't appear for a few more years, but here's his older brother, EggsOverEasyFace. And Arms.
BEAST OF BLOOD (1970)
"Well, I've got some really beat up old wigs that were stored in the hurricane and blizzards - we could put that on and attach all kinds of other things. Hand me that tacklebox..."
BRIDES OF BLOOD (1968) and BLOOD THIRTY (1971) actually were father-and-son relations. Both of them were apparently created in the image of a very old, very used chianti bottle. I hope the cafe never missed them.
BEYOND ATLANTIS (1973)... I'm pretty sure this is the original Derek & The Dominos video for TELL THE TRUTH, right? "Who's Been Ooglin' You?"

Great post. :) I really enjoy the Philippino horror flicks. One of the coolest looking monsters ever is the Chlorophyll Monster (Beast Of Blood).
Check out Sam Sherman's commentary tracks on the four films in the Blood Island Vacation DVD box set covering the history of Hemisphere Pictures. It concludes on
Brain Of Blood even though
Brain... isn't a genuine Blood Island flick, Independent International just tried to make it look that way to capitalize on the
then popularity of the
BI trilogy. Sherman is very meticulous and entertaining, and those commentary tracks are big fun for horror film geeks like you and I. The commentaries are also included on the Alpha reissues of the original Image DVDs.

Too bad they never made a live action film adaptation of the Gold Key Turok comic book with Ray Harryhausen dynamation. Man, that would have been a Dinokid dream. 8)

Well... The dinos look like CGI, and that dude looks more like a Chippendale dancer than Turok. I guess I'm picky about that '60s Dinokid esthetic.
But, hey... I appreciate the effort. :)

(Memph, this always poses two questions to me: (1) was that a one-piece mask that could be used over and over, or did it tear too frequently and they made the actor sit there for re-application and touch-ups; the era of the film makes me hope it was a durable mask; and (2) where did the mythology of a melted face originate? Probably from texts in the latter 1800s, but I wonder if such horrifying disfigurements written about pre-1850? Publishing, even then, was nascent then and I wonder if it was more restricted to news and politics, or business plotting, rather than entertainment?
Quote from: ChristineBCW on February 21, 2016, 01:02:20 PM
where did the mythology of a melted face originate?
Don't know if it was the first, but there was Poe's "The Facts in the Case of M. Valdemar".
"As I rapidly made the mesmeric passes, amid ejaculations of "dead! dead!" absolutely bursting from the tongue and not from the lips of the sufferer, his whole frame at once --within the space of a single minute, or even less, shrunk --crumbled --absolutely rotted away beneath my hands. Upon the bed, before that whole company, there lay a nearly liquid mass of loathsome --of detestable putridity."
(http://www.methodquarterly.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/valdemar-japan.jpg)
Published 1845, and I think it's reasonable to assume he wasn't the first but merely using imagery he'd heard about. After all, burnings of humans is nothing new, nor is decaying. Doing it quickly, in this case, might have been 'a first' but he was quite a reader himself so I think it's reasonable he was adding to his repertoire rather than inventing a whole new concept.
Thanks for that, Mike. The Wiki page has a B&W drawing from 1919, but it lacks your image's Zero and Tony.

I'm pretty sure the artwork is by great comic artist Gray Morrow who Sam Sherman hired to do promotional artwork for Independent International and Hemisphere. He also did the art for the "Wolfstein" intro segment which clumsily tried to explain why this is a Frankenstein movie and not a werewolf movie. At least the art is good, as is the movie if you like over-the-top bloody Eurohorror (which I certainly do).

I also thought this might have been an early casting-call for LORD OF THE RINGS, with Saruman's role still up for grabs because Christopher Lee hadn't whitened up his hair and beard enough. Of course, this other actor didn't get the part, probably because he brought his shuffleboard cue with him. Crutches? Oh well... they can be both!

And this one doesn't look like it's 'mask-able' or even 'piece-able' - it doesn't look like it can be peeled off and re-applied. But rather, it looks like the fur must be layered from the back of the skull (over a skull-cap) all the way to the nose. Layer by layer. The close-fit to the eyes and lips make me think that.

Octaman(1972)
(http://underscoopfire.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/octaman.jpg)
But super loveable.
LOVE Robot Monster. And I need to see whatever Octaman is in. He's awesome.
I love the creativity that the makeup artists use to deliver the monsters. I wonder how much they were consulted in the financing luncheons that occurred before any filming (and even hiring) was done? Probably "very little" - I assume the financiers were shown some kind of sketched out drawings for these, or maybe not at all.
"We just want to see the bottom line drawn out and printed, we don't care about anything else."
That's probably a good thing for those of us who appreciate the silly Giant Claw/It Conquered The World type of monsters. If they'd looked at Wasp Woman's outfit first, who'd write a check for THAT production?!!
I understood IT CONQ's monster was a man crawling on his knees, and sometimes his heels would be snagged on the back of the foam-rubber cone of the monster, causing some tip-overs and torn-out limbs.
And I still think the actors who were confronted with these creations all deserve Oscar consideration for every page of script they'd complete without busting a gut, laughing. Or running off the set, screaming "My career's over if I am in this film!!"
That WEREWOLF IN GIRL'S DORM make-up... what WAS that artist thinking of?!!
"Y'know, ya never see a wolf man who looks like a massive burn victim will all kinds of bulges and cliff-scars across his face. That's what a Real Werewolf would look like, in my book!" Uh... OK...
What that film really lacked was Whit Bissell as some doctor. Probably for the make-up artist, himself! (Of course, I'd stick Whit Bissell in almost every monster movie... crime drama... and he'd have been a wonderful addition to AIRPLANE and NAKED GUN films. If only-!)

I have the Media Blasters (Shriek Show) DVD of
Zombie Holocaust. I'm stoked to finally get to see and own the
Doctor Butcher M.D. cut that was shown here in the US grindhouses back in the '80s. I pre-ordered the new 2-disc Blu-ray from Severin around a month ago. I ordered early to get the Doctor Butcher Barf Bag premium given away with the first 5,000 orders. The BD should ship 7/26. I'll post a pic of the Barf Bag when it arrives.
(https://severin-films.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/Dr-Butcher-BD-WITH-CASE-1-300x381.jpg)
I didn't get to see
Zombie Holocaust when it played here back in the '80s, and certainly not the
Doctor Butcher M.D. cut of the film. I'm not sure if it even hit drive-ins down here in the south. My cousins and I really enjoyed seeing Fulci's
Zombie when it hit the drive-ins down here. Man, that was fun! :)

Directed by Riccardo Freda, this film was finished by Mario Bava, which also happened with I, Vampiri (1957). Bava was Freda's assistant on both films and invested them with quality and flair while finishing them very quickly. Bava's talent would become legendary.
Looks like a big pile of dinosaur crap!
The early 1970's was the age of...VAMPIRES! :) one of 'em anyway.

Now I see where Tom Hanks got his CAST AWAY wardrobe from!
By the way, I might join in the questioning of the Teenage Werewolf. The women appear to be about 5'7 and maybe 5'10 in heels. Landon was only 5'9, and his eyebrow-line is above the tops of their poofed coiffures.
So that's a taller actor.

When I did the Google search for that bikini image some suggestions popped up that said "Candy Samples Alzheimer's disease" so that must be a popular search. I didn't check that out because if that's the case I don't want to know. Remembering the good times is best.

The only thing is that in HOD, the Wolf Man only has two scenes, one in the jail cell where Talbot had been talking with Dr.Edelmann with Inspector Holtz and Militza looking on(and we really dont see any shots of his feet when he transforms) but as the Wolf Man jumps around the cell at one point, he is seen to be sporting those werewolf feet in a very brief shot and then in the caverns beneath Edelmann's estate where he attacks him there are no shots of the Wolf Man's feet. However when he transforms back into Talbot, his bare feet are clearly visable.

Joseph Smith was a British artist who painted many film posters in the 50s, 60s and 70s. Horror and science-fiction seemed to be his forte. Mr. Smith considered his GORGO poster among his best.
This 19" x 24" concept "rough" is rendered with charcoal on illustration chip board. He also used gesso to cover and clean up his sketches. This was a preliminary work and another version was the one actually used for the posters.
Smith said that when he was asked to make the letters look like stone for the movie, BEN-HUR, that after that, everybody wanted that look. His influence could be seen afterwards on numerous fantasy, adventure and sword and sandal movie posters.
Gorgo (MGM, 1961). Joseph Smith Original Movie Poster Art (19" X 24").
Treading in the giant footsteps of Godzilla and King Kong, came the British shocker, Gorgo. The movie borrowed heavily from both of these films (monster from Godzilla and plot from King Kong).The story follows the events after an earthquake shakes up the ocean floor and releases a dinosaur. A small village on the Irish coast is attacked by the dinosaur and a group of seamen capture the beast before it can wreck any further havoc. They then have the very novel idea of putting it on display by selling it to a circus in London. And everything should have been okay at that point, until they realize their dinosaur was only a baby-- and mother is on the way to protect her infant. The following destruction of London by the 200 foot tall Gorgo has one of the best series of special effects of the era. This incredible original work of art depicts Gorgo as she destroys all of London. In the foreground one can see Big Ben and the London Bridge falling down among other landmarks of the city. The artist, Joseph Smith, signed the work in the lower right of the art and considered this one of his better works. He did all of his concepts (or 'roughs' as he called them) in charcoal and used gesso to cover areas he didn't want seen or when he wanted to clean up the art. He did another concept for the film that was actually used on all the posters but Smith personally considered this design to be far superior. One of the things he was requested to add were the letters in a 'stone motif'. Smith later recalled, "I did letters for Ben-Hur that looked like stone. Then everybody asked for that look." For the first time, this original work for one of the classics of movie posters is being made available. Very Fine+ on Illustration/Chip Board.

It could be a better likeness, but he's got the trademark gap in his teeth. I would love a copy of that on DVD. I won't watch War of the Gargantuas until I see it.

Did not know that. Last I check it was OOP and went for a bit more than I was willing to pay. It does look like it's cooled down somewhat. Around $25-$30 on ebay at the moment.

Ivan Albright and his twin brother, artist Malvin Albright, painted these paintings for the film The Picture of Dorian Gray (1945). One painted the portrait, as it first appears. The other brother, painted the corrupted portrait.
Ivan painted the corrupted portrait.

Saw a 'reissue' of this Japanese Creature poster. No idea if it was actually a poster at the time or not, but it sure is cool.
Must be some kind of fantasy piece. Trying to make the Creature a kaiju, maybe? I've seen original Japanese CFTBL movie posters. Nothing weird like that.
