I like how the woman in the last poster looks mildly concerned at the sight of the large snake that's about to kill her. Sort of the reaction you'd see in people in front of a slippery pavement or a bookshelf with too many heavy books. π
The bottom one is Superfly, I think, that's his pimp mobile, although I seem to recall it was silver, not gold. Ron O'Neal is the guy hunkering down under the sexy gril's afro. If I am wrong, I would like to get marks for interpretation! The pics in the middle look as if they may be comic book or trash novel covers.
my favourite Toronto comic shop has separate sections in their basement labyrinth for Sleaze and Smut. I'm not sure what the difference is, but I imagine the Smut is more purely sexual, whereas the Sleaze could be more generally weird with the sex just being one of the transgressive elements. Like the picture above with the soldiers harassing the young ladies I might categorise as sleaze, whereas if we looked in on the characters again five minutes later it might now be Smut.

I can see why, Sir Miles π
A Hammer movie…
Pulp action scenes…
Three more movies…
And Suzi getting herself into a precarious position again…
Mars Attacks, and Jaws .... 2?
Yes, correct @Barbel good spotting!
Sci-fi day…
Movies…
And a plastic model kit box…
And finally…The Invaders…
Used to love watching The Invaders π
Lovely art. The 2nd movie is definitely The Quatermass Xperiment and the first maybe The Time Machine.

Pin-ups…
Our own lovely Diana…
And what is Suzi running from (Barbel will know π)
Has someone been raiding Thunderpussy’s Gentlemen’s Interest folder? βΊοΈ
If so….please do it again….soon π
Suzi is running from "The Giant Claw", one of the worst movie monsters ever.
I knew you’d get that one, Barbel π
Fabulous βΊοΈ
What the --- bloody hell... πππ
Thought you’d like those, gents π
Four well known faces in the first picture…
The first is Hannie Caulder, if the others are films I don't recognise them.

Superfly is correct. There are both silver and gold automobile versions.
The second is art for a movie before the typography is set. I’ve forgotten what the title is.
The rest are from men’s adventure magazines from the 60/70’s.
I was selling books for 40 years and never heard of a trash novel. Pulp, sleaze etc. but not trash. You’ve invented a new genre!
I know there are reference books on the topic of Trash Cinema
Trash Cinema: A Celebration of Overlooked Masterpieces
Trash Cinema: The Lure of the Low
