The Mondo Records Thread - You think limited? Will sell fast?


Recommended Posts

I can't even find the Death Waltz thread. The search function is nearly useless. That aside, anybody in on the Dracula AD 1972? I'm on the fence. The good tracks are really good. Very 70s funky cool, but there are some forgettable cues as well. I may wait and see if there's a black retail version coming.

Robinson Crusoe on Mars is a fun pick, but the new artwork is hideous. 

 

Agreed! I'm up in the air about this one, but the artwork isn't even meh, its more like muuh. 

 

and its been awhile since I seen the movie but those look like the saucers from War of the Worlds in the gatefold. Am I confused or just stupid?

They look both like the ones from WofW and Robinson Crusoe. WotW came first though...

 

"An effort was made to avoid the stereotypical flying saucer look of UFOs: The Martian war machines (designed by Al Nozaki) were instead made to be sinister-looking machines shaped like manta rays floating above the ground. Three Martian war machine props were made out of copper for the film. The same blueprints were used a decade later to construct the alien spacecraft in the film Robinson Crusoe on Mars, also directed by Byron Haskin; that film prop was later reported melted down as part of a scrap copper recycling drive."  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_War_of_the_Worlds_(1953_film)
