WTF??? - Poster Perversion

Crocodile Evil (Thailand)
Another freaky-looking Thai poster for a weird-ass 80's Hong Kong horror flick. I'm going to pretend that crocodile isn't doing what I think its doing between that girl's legs.

Kiss Meets the Phantom of the Park (Mexico)
What were they thinking? The band hates this movie, because they claim it made them look silly. Really guys, you didn't see that coming after reading the script?

White Slaver
AKA Penthouse Playgirls. Swiss sleaze from the prolific Erwin C. Dietrich.

Hollow-Eyed Ghost (Thailand)
I know nothing about this Thai horror film, except that the title means "Hollow-Eyed Ghost". But judging by the stunningly macabre artwork, I'm going to have to keep my eyes peeled for this one.

Ilsa, Harem Keeper of the Oil Sheiks – German lobby card #5
Unless you've seen the film, your guess is as good as mine/

House of 1000 Dolls (Turkey)
Is there really a Grindhouse God?

Poppea- A Prostitute in Service of the Emperor (Finland)

Dog Soldiers (Pakistan)
An odd poster for Neil Marshall's "Dog Soldier" (sic), featuring creatures that look more were-ape than were-wolf. And I don't remember those bikini gals making an appearance anywhere in the film. This must be another creative recycling of movie poster images I've learned to expect (and love) from Pakistan.

Rat Savior
Is it horror? Is it comedy? Is it pretentious arthouse fare? Your guess is as good as mine.

Tatar Ramazan (Turkey)
Eye-catching art for what looks like a badass Turkish revenge flick but probably isn't.

Krasue Grahailuead (Thai)
Weird as it may look to Westerners, the Krasue (the flying head'n'organs witch) is very common in the folklore of Thailand, Cambodia, Indonesia and the Phillippines., and has already appeared in 30+ films. The title here literally means "Bloody Filth-Eating Spirit”.

King Kong: The Giant Ape (India)
Awful Indian poster for what is most likely a retitled print of Dino De Laurentiis' 'King Kong' from 1976, redubbed and re-released to cash in on the success of Peter Jackson's 'King Kong'.

Tilt (Mexico)
Totally inappropriate and pedophilic lobby card for this tame drama, starring 13 year-old Brooke Shields as a pinball wizard.

King Kong Ki Waapsi (India)
Indian poster for a film titled "King Kong Returns" which is most likely 1986's 'King Kong Lives', directed by John Guillermin, redubbed and released in India to cash in on the success of Peter Jackson's 'King Kong'. It's certain that 'producer' Raju Bahruz had nothing to do with the production of the film.

Robo Force (Pakistan)
At first glance, that's Linda Blair and her heaving breasts from 'Savage Streets'. But once you get to the bottom-half, the fraud is exposed. This is a Pakistani poster 'mash-up' for a 'Robocop'-inspired comedy from Hong Kong called "Robo Force", a.k.a. "I Love Maria".

Shaitani Dracula (Pakistan)
Looks like the special effects department raided the dollar store after Halloween in preparation for this Bollywood horror production.

Mr. No Legs
"Don't Cross Him or He'll Cut You Down to Size"

Bionic Boy – Turkish lobby card #1

Kedi Karateci (Turkey)
I'm a sucker for tacky poster art which is why I scarfed up this Turkish poster for unknown martial arts film immediately. The title literally means "Karate Cat" though this is most likely a retitling.

Shaolin vs. Evil Dead – version B (Pakistan)
Ever hear of the EVIL DEAD sequel Sam Raimi shot in Hong Kong? Neither did we. The poster says 'Evil Dead 4' but it's really a 2004 martial arts/horror flick starring Gordon Liu.

Ilsa, Harem Keeper of the Oil Sheiks – German lobby card #6

Ratman

Dog Lay Afternoon (Turkey)
Sick sick sick ! This Italian sleaze sundae features Ilona 'Cicciolina' Staller and was written and co-directed by actor George Eastman (a.k.a. Luigi Montefiori), star of many sleazy Italian films. Oddly, Joe D'Amato had nothing to do with this film.

The Incredible Kids (Turkey)
Kung-fu kidsploitation comedy from Taiwan. The Turkish title means "Little Rambos", which if you think about it, is a far better title than 'The Incredible Kids'.

One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest (Turkey)
One of my favorite posters in my entire collection. Read on to find out why...
