Each segment are homages to a different genre and style. Filming took place in late 2010 and is scheduled to be released in late 2011."

You've got a "Striporama" image in your 2008 "Rama" listings; it's a newspaper ad for a film in the process. Attached image is the front of a theatre (thought to possibly be in Chicago, USA) with something in the process, and some associated local people involved in some somewhat bizarre life on the street. Old photo, probably from circa mid-1950s.

Paul Rayton, Hollywood, USA
 
 
"Suspenserama!". I found the attached ad on microfilm from 1956. Sadly, the film was somewhat mangled, but you can still make out that the movie was in "Suspenserama!"

Matt Lutthans, 21.07.2011, Seattle, USA

PS - I drive by the site of the old Sky-Vu almost every day on the way to work. It's less than a mile from where I grew up.
