Description This was just a fun and quick homage to the old comic book ads that featured the Aurora monster models.

I used to just stare at those old ads in awe as a kid.

Reminds me of these cookie cracker things I found when I was still in... middle school possibly... that featured the classic movie monsters. Probably cause it was around the time Van Helsing came out. They were delicious.

Love this! I must now track down these said monster models.

I've never respected that aquatic monster, it brings me the image of that he-man's enemy, kinda silly.
Great stuff, by the way

terryterra In reply to sideshowmonkey [2006-06-27 19:39:28 +0000 UTC]

Oh yeah INFERNO
thats when death reveals herself as the 3rd mother
susperiatum, tenebre, and DEATH
I thought Phenomena was the 3rd one??
Did you know that Dario tried to commit suicide after Susperia
I think he said something about the 3 mothers appearing to him...

He never got to film the third one and I read an interview awhile back where he was talking about finishing it up.

I really, really love Phenomena. It just has so much crazy stuff going on.

Oh yea, chiller theatre was great. I used to watch it all the time. I miss those old movie shows, they need to bring them back.

Yea, I wondered if Rob got the idea for the title from that.

I got Children shouldn't play with dead things on DVD when it came out a few years back.

One of my favorite things that was on chiller theatre was all the documentaries about bigfoot and ufos. Good times.

Psychomania was cool. I love that skeleton guy on the motorcycle.

I'm a DVD junkie. The last time we counted I had over 2000 DVDs and didn't even get to the binders that hold 500 discs.

I think I have a problem.
