Just got my first batch of Fright Rag t-shirts this week (Creepshow, Prince of Darkness, Shark vs Zombie) and found them exceptional. Much to my surprise, they started a "mystery grab bag" sale this week - $7 per shirt, less than half price. All the tees are from their discontinued designs, but that shouldn't turn anyone off- of the hundreds of designs I've see of theirs the past few years, very few were something I'd be embarassed to wear. I just put myself down for 5. www.fright-rags.com/And for the record, I have no connection to the company. |

Thanks for sharing.

Has anyone else seen: www.lastexittonowhere.com/This is my fave t-shirt company. Designs based on fictional place logos from genre films. It's my mission to own them all! So far I have the Friday 13th, Thing and Alien one. |

Came in today. The Good: The tees are very nice, same exact quality as the rest of their line. I've not yet learned how they hold up to the wash, but otherwise OK - comfortable black tee, bold,vibrant colors and a clean print. The Bad: I ordered 5 tees and got 4 different designs. I understood that was a risk when I ordered, and it is too small a sample size to guess just how many different designs are available. And as a larger fellow/fat ass, there may not have been as much variety in my size. But since I feared getting 5 "My Best Friend is a Vampire" tees, I'm not complaining. All in all, the cost came out to about $48 after shipping, so that's still just $12 for four unique tees (and a free duplicate), which is still a good deal in my book. The tees I got were: Ol' Chief Woodenhead from Creepshow 2 (they seem to have done all 8 stories from CS 1 and 2, thought some are now out of print). This is the one I have a duplicate of.  Phenomena - the colors really stand out on this one, moreso than in the pic  El Noche del Walpurges - never even heard of the film but its a great tee, with a werewolf fighting a vampire in front of a satanic figure: .jpg) Wicker Man - the most aesthetically pleasing to me, as the vivid purple and orange really pop when contrasted against each other.  Again I'd say the only real risk is in getting duplicates, but I understand they have to do this randomly to clear out stock. If they knew exactly what was being sent, they'd have endless requests for specific designs,and that sort of defeats the purpose of having them on clearance. I would strongly recommend them to friends, and the only thing keeping me from buying more in the future is the uncertainty of knowing how many designs there are to choose from. If there are 50, I can probably grab 5 more and get 4 new designs. If there's ten, 5 tees might get me 2, 3 if I was lucky. |

The Wicker Man one is my favorite. I'll be ordering me some real soon. Thanks for sharing the pics.
