R.O.T.O.R. / Manson International, WestWind Pictures - 1987

Hey, if you never knew the meaning of R.O.T.O.R., welp, it means Robotic Officer Tactical Operation Research! You'll notice this poster is VHS box art, the only way it was released here.

The story's about a prototype robotic human intended for crime combat that escapes from the development lab and goes on a killing rampage... Lots of no-name actors, filmed in Dallas, TX, home of the Gas Monkey and Fired Up Garages!

The whole mess starts here, at Division Headquarters, exactly at 10:00 pm, CST.

Red haired dude has some interesting info for the development division of the corporation...

He has brought his super 8 film to show the guys what he's been working on, a robotic framework for a super cop! The company is very interested in the thing or else we wouldn't have a movie! Oh yeah, the robot's nickname is... Willard!

Later, at the Tactical Operations Computer Center, this guy is working away with the help of his personal robot that's wearing a copper's hat, talk about goofy looking!!

Anyway, they make a R.O.T.O.R. cop, he breaks out of the lab and locates a cool motorcycle to get around on. He steals the bike and is gone before anyone figures it out.

The first thing the defective super cop does is locate a couple making out in their car.

The dude gets out to bribe him with a few bucks, but, gets shot in the head while holding up the money up for him to see!

The girl gets away after honking the horn, which disables the crazy cop from the sound and drives to a gas station to use the phone. That plum colored phone booth? looks pretty cool.

But, he follows her on his cycle and torments her again as she tries to ditch him. Hero shows up and shoots the crazy cop a number of times, but, it only stops him momentarily!

Then, our hero comes up with a plan to destroy the menace, He lassos his wrists and has him tied up between some trees...

He pushes a button, and... KA-BLAM!!! No more robot!! The day is saved.

But, get ready for R.O.T.O.R. II, this time though, we get a freakin' bad girlie-bot!! Tune in tomorrow when Eegah!! will have a very special post for us to enjoy, later!

ZOMBI 3 - Lucio Fulci (1988)

Tonight I got zombies for you, lots and lots of zombies!! Not one, not two, but three! Zombies can be a real pain in the ass, and that's what this Lucio Fulci flick is all about! It was released in Denmark as "Zombie: Hell On Earth!" "Zombi 3" was shot in Los Baños, Laguna, Philippines," so for those of you who don't speak Spanish, that translates into "The Bathrooms!" There's also a Los Baños in central California, it's not really that far from Manteca (Lard)!

This one goes out to Dr. T., let's all hope he's doing all right!

So let's just get this straight! "Zombi 3" is actually Fulci's second zombie movie because his first zombie movie retitled "Zombie" was originally titled "Zombi 2" even though there was never a "Zombi 1."

It's a story about science versus the military, but there's always a woman in the middle!

Not really, this is actually a movie about zombies, lots of zombies.......

.......blood-thirsty, flesh-eating zombies!

And even more zombies! Freakin' zombies everywhere!!

And when you've had enough zombies, just go on ahead and scream!!

Because there's more zombies right around the corner!

The bastards are everywhere!

A very good way to  rid yourself of a zombie is to turn it into a flaming fajita!

Or you could try this method if you want to have a little more hands on approach, cause everybody knows, there's more than one way to skewer and grill a zombie!

Zombies are everywhere, so don't go this way!

This reminds me of a Disney cartoon that's way far out of place!

You might end up staying longer than you expected!

There's just no escaping these zombie sons of bitches! They are literally everywhere!

They even have gnarly zombie feet!, and as you will find out in the end, it's possible for these zombies to even talk!

At this point you just have two choices, give in to the zombies, or.....

 .......................Set 'em all on fire and send their dead asses back to Hell where they belong!

They call it the art of incineration!
Speaking of art, if you want to really know about what was happening in the 80's, then go check out Lord Litter's Radio On Show! It's a real zombie burner!

WILD 'N' WEIRD HORROR POSTERS And ADS

Here are some eye catching posters and ads I got off some extras on a Something Weird DVD, so, sit back and enjoy all the craziness...

We'll start with THE HOUSE ON BARE MOUNTAIN, man, you can't go wrong with mixing nude chicks with monsters! The freakin' Werewolf, played by William Engesser, is 7 feet 3 inches tall.

Here's one I've never heard of, but, THE PEEPING PHANTOM goes to court to explain why he likes to watch the chorus girls undress... What the Hell is there to explain?!

THE ICE HOUSE is about a serial killer who works at an ice house (duh!) and murders women, then, brings their bodies back there to store! Love the poster.

Here's a wild Japanese flick, THE LOVE ROBOTS, where, in the bizarre world of distorted human pleasures, the most heinous crimes against mankind are accepted. Love Robots are beautiful young girls who are abducted right off the street and turned into monsters!

SEXUAL SENSORY PERCEPTION came out in 1975, not much info on this one, but, it obviously shatters the sexual time barrier!!

1960's AUNTIE'S SECRET SOCIETY is a science fiction flick that there's virtually no info on!

Great double bill poster of THE HEADLESS EYES and THE GHASTLY ONES. Headless Eyes is about an artist artist who gets an eye gouged out while committing a robbery. Then, he goes on a killing spree and cuts out women's eyes with a spoon. In Ghastly Ones, three married couples are forced to spend the night in an old house where they start getting killed off by a deranged psycho, from Andy Milligan!

Here's another cheapo Andy Milligan flick. THE RATS ARE COMING! THE WEREWOLVES ARE HERE! ia about the daughter in a family of werewolves who decides to put an end to the family curse. Love the poster though.

THE MAN WITH TWO HEADS is my favorite poster in this post, wow, eye-popping shit... And, guess what? This is yet another stink bomb from Andy Milligan! Basically, just another take off on Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.

Looks like a press book double bill poster for THE VAMPIRE-BEAST CRAVES BLOOD aka THE BLOOD BEAST TERROR with Peter Cushing and CURSE OF THE BLOOD-GHOULS.

Here's great ad for HORROR HOTEL, a dark and depressing movie starring Chris Lee.

Love this Mexican double bill from THE CURSE OF THE DOLL PEOPLE and THE VAMPIRE. Of course, these are the English dubbed versions for American audiences.

Two more American releases for THE VAMPIRE'S COFFIN and THE ROBOT vs. THE AZTEC MUMMY (one of my favorites) in Hypnoscope even!!

Here's a triple bill for two Jerry Warren mutilations, plus the very silly British flick, MY SON, THE VAMPIRE from 1952 with Bela Lugosi... What a big pile of crap!!

I'll end with two classic lobby cards, first, here's Bab's reaction to seeing Gary as the monster in THE HORRORS OF SPIDER ISLAND. Looks like her lipstick is a little smeared!

Then, here's a WTF! card from BLOODTHIRSTY BUTCHERS and TORTURE DUNGEON! You try and figure out what's going on in the still, super weirdsville! So, there you go, another post bites the dust. Hey, did you know that this is Dungeon Post #2491?! Man, that's a lot of fortitude!
