Cinema Suicide

I hadn’t gone by Rotten Cotton in some time so leave it to Dan and the Exploitation Retrospect blog to turn my attention there.  Horror Shirts had been doing something like this for a while, but quite frankly, I’d rather give my money to an outfit such as Rotten Cotton and they’re certainly no slouch at giving me a reason to.

Prove that you’re the most old-school, genuine horror hound at the next con by aligning yourself with your favorite video label and proudly wear it on your chest.  Those fatasses in the Fulci shirts won’t have anything on you as you take your expression of fandom a step further and prove just how closely you were paying attention in the 80’s with your preference toward a certain video distributor.

Even though I’m spoofing ultra-fandom a bit here, I was certainly not above giving blind rental to anything bearing the Vestron, New World or Lightning logos.   If you scanned the horror shelves at your favorite video outlet, chances are there were a half a dozen commonly recurring labels and it was a safe bet that anything bearing those logos would take you to a special place whether or not you’d heard of the movie you were renting.  Rotten Cotton makes a snide comment about wanting to print a four color Gorgon Video shirt and their lack of license, so we desperately need to figure out who holds that license and do a little letter writing because I would buy one of those right now.  God damn!

Pop over to Rotten Cotton and see what they have.

Bear in mind, RC’s website is still stuck in 1998 and buried in fucking frames.  So you’ll have to do a little internet trickery from that page if you want to see the rest of the site.
