I remember happening across the novelisation of "The Incredible Melting Man" in Woolworths when I was a kid and the front cover freaked me out so much that I refused to go near the books section for months later, just encase it was still there.

That film is gloriously sick, the bit with the head plopping down the water fall is classic.

Funny you say that, because that's how I felt about the Saturday morning Scene (the arts and leisure section of my local paper) way back in the day: in the back, they always had the movie reviews and ads, and that face would always freak me out - you'd turn the page quickly, and then peel it back just to get a peak.

Sad as it is to say, I will say that those memories of the ad are probably way better than the movie itself (though it still has a warm, gloopy spot in my heart and on the dvd shelf).
