A few words from Paul J. Schiola, Founder & Chief Sculptor:
Welcome to Ultratumba Productions. It is my pleasure to bring to you the wonderful world of Mexican horror and science fiction cinema and other bizarre and strange items in model kit form. All the model kits on this site are resin model kits unless otherwise noted in the description. Our concept here at Ultratumba Productions is to offer a reasonably priced, well-made product that you do not have to mortgage the house to purchase. We want model building and collecting in general to be fun and affordable. Because without you, the model builder, the horror movie buff and the curious collector, we cannot exist.
One of our initial offerings is the awesome kit inspired by the movie "El Baron Del Terror," released in the U.S. by K. Gordon Murray as "The Braniac." This is number one in a series of three model kits.
This whole series is being sculpted by Paul Schiola, who brings over twenty years of sculpting experience, coupled with twenty years of enjoying Mexican horror and fantasy movies, to the modeling world.
\This is only the beginning for Ultratumba Productions. There are many projects in the works at this time so please check here often. Please feel free to contact us at: ultratumba@comcast.net with any comments or suggestions. Thank you for visiting and ENJOY!

Paul J. Schiola (rt.) with the legendary Bob Burns at WonderFest 2005.
Bob is a key figure in the world of monster/scifi fandom. He owns
many priceless pieces of fantasticinema history, including
an original Willis O'Brien/Marcel Delgado armature from the 1933 "King Kong,"
the original silver wolf's head cane used by Lon Chaney, Jr., in Universal's
1941 "The Wolf Man," and the original "Time Machine" from George Pal's classic
1960 film.
This is only a TINY part of the
Bob Burns story, however, and
we strongly urge you to buy one of Bob's books, including
"It Came From
Bob's Basement," which examines Bob's astounding collection of
memorabilia,
his latest book,
"Monster
Kid Memories,"
and his forthcoming
"King
Kong And Other Great Hollywood Apes," scheduled for June, 2006.
