A Limited Edition Art Print (signed by artist Alex Pardee; 21/100; measures 24" x 36" [61 x 91 cm]) (Learn More) Basket Case, the 1982 Frank Henenlotter evil twin horror comedy ("The tenant in room 7 is very small, very twisted, and very mad") starring Kevin Van Hentenryck, Terri Susan Smith, Beverly Bonner, Robert Vogel, and Dianna Browne. Note that this movie was originally released in 1982 by Analysis Film Corporation as a very limited release in New York City, and the rights to distribution were quickly purchased by Safir Films Ltd. and it was edited into a more comedic film, which the director thought would help to sell it better. The movie was released in Los Angeles by Safir, then played continuously during midnight shows and in other limited theaters and in Australia. It was later re-released in 1984 by Rugged Films, Inc. who were forced to re-release the movie as unrated due to threats of an X-rating from the MPAA! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.

All 2,346 auctions begin on November 29th, and all close December 13th, starting at around 3:00 PM CST, a few seconds apart! All the prints are being auctioned by eMoviePoster.com, and will ship to the winning bidders from eMoviePoster.com, who WILL combine purchases into as few packages as possible (and they can also be combined with purchases from "non-Mondo" eMoviePoster.com auctions, only charging the actual cost of shipping, plus $3 for packing materials). Please know that 100% of the proceeds from the sale will go towards paying staff of the Alamo Drafthouse and paying debt and expenses accrued during the COVID closures. And eMoviePoster.com has slashed its commission rates, so that we too can do all we can to support this most worthwhile cause. Whether you are a prior collector of Mondo prints or if you have never purchased one of them before, you surely have a movie fan in your life who would like something unique under their Christmas tree this year (or maybe you want to give it to yourself!). Our deepest thanks to everyone who participates in this very special set of 2,346 auctions! Condition: fine. The limited edition art print is in excellent condition! An important note about the condition of the print in this auction (or, in the case of 25 of the auctions, prints). It comes from the personal collection of Tim League, and it has been carefully stored since it was first printed. In the case of all but 46 of the 2,344 of the prints, it is in wonderful condition, and likely looks exactly as it did when it was printed, and we give all those our "fine" grade, which is the highest grade we give (and which equates to most dealers' "mint" grade). In the case of a very small number of the prints (46 in all!), it acquired one or more defects, and in those cases we give it a lower grade, and explain in words what those defects are. If you like purchasing limited edition prints in wonderful condition, THIS is the auction for you! Learn More about condition grades
