I ordered a couple of tapes that were very cheap on Amazon, with American shipping of course. Mondo has released the soundtrack and a new VHS copy of Blue Sunshine. I have always been meaning to check out this movie, but I refuse to get sucked into the Mondo Cult. I like their releases and all, but I am really not a fan their sales tactics (very limited pressings, random). Its genius, because people will buy absolutely anything they put out, but I have a moral issue with the way they do their business. That being said I bought an old VHS copy of Blue Sunshine for like 3 bucks, which is a far better price than the Mondo version that is selling on eBay right now ($111!!!). I also got a copy of Recruits. A pretty horrible Canadian rip off of Police Academy. I wanted to own it for a while to complete my Thor (Rock N Roll Nightmare, Zombie Nightmare) movie collection.
Gary also brought me this incredible poster from this years Grrrindhahs in Pittsburgh. Every year this theatre puts on a whole day exploitation movie marathon. I really need to make it down to one of these shows some day.
Also from the same show, Gary picked up a soundtrack CD that the curators released at the theatre. There are some really awesome soundtrack songs on this so I am pretty stoked about it.
I also made my own iTunes cover based on the screen printed poster above.
