I’ll be this is a very widely recognized screencap from Re-Animator (1985). The girl on the table is played by the awesome scream queen Barbara Crampton (b. 1958) (you can follow her on Twitter here!). The image first appeared on the tumblr The Nihilistic Cinephile and is a reblog from this 25 November 2013 post at Infernal Wonders.

Horror show
There’s nothing like old movies, even if this representation of them is a little dark for Erotic Mad Science. This is art by David Palumbo, which I found at the still-active tumblr Disturbing and Provocative Art. The image is a reblog from a 25 November 2013 post at Infernal Wonders.
It’s beginning to look a lot like fishmen…
Probably actress Barbara Bach (b. 1947) posing with a fishman played by I-know-not-whom in a publicity still for the 1979 Italian action-adventure-horror film L’isola degli uomini pesce (Island of the Fishmen).
As it does so often, the IMDB entry (which gives the movie the title Screamers) does not disappoint in its luridness.
The main image on this post is a reblog from a 16 November 2013 post at Infernal Wonders. The first appearance the image made appears to have been at a tumblr called Cocks and Cowboys.
The Demon Doctor
The poster text reads:
A nightmare of terror in the macabre. The Demon Doctor. See the maniac doctor in the horror film of the age. He lures lovely women for monstrous experiments.
It’s not entirely obvious, but The Demon Doctor is probably an alternate title for the 1962 Spanish-French horror film The Awful Dr. Orloff, directed by Jesús Franco (1930-2013). The promotional art accompanying this movie’s IMDB entry is equally lurid.

The Humanoid
A VHS cover which first appeared in my blog network in this post at Hedonix and which traces back to the tumblr Horrorpedia which is still alive. The original text on the post was “VHS cover for The Humanoid aka L’Umanoide (1979) by Aldo Lado.”
