Hello folks
« on: August 30, 2012, 07:43:28 AM »
I've been collecting movie posters since I was a kid but never educated myself on the In's & out's until about 5 years ago, I look forward to learning a ton from you folks. My main area of interest is exploitation/smut/horror/sci-fi & although I love the US one sheet I've just started to fall in love with the half sheet.

Great genres to collect spazz, what eras do you collect? Half sheets are a good choice - sharper images than the larger posters and small enough to fit most walls nicely. Have fun here.

 Ditto here.  Love the cheesy exploit stuff, especially the ones that are cheap knockoffs of real movie titles.  But, it is not something that I can keep around the house.  But there is nothing wrong with a good hooker out for vigilante justice poster.   ;D

Thanks for the warm welcomes gents. The era's I'm into most would be mid 60's to late 80's, but you can't attach "great taste" to a era(s)  ;D . I should have added my passion of interest lays in the Blaxploitation & Canuxploitation subgenres(not just posters but tracking films as well)

Thumbsup if you had to look up Canuxploitation
