The Blood Trilogy Reviews
A typically charming H.G. Lewis gem
Just about every gorehound and exploitation film buff knows about this one because it's considered by many as the first gore movie ever made (it was actually FIEND WITHOUT A FACE which started it all but don't let that get to you). Advertising salesman and english professer, Herschell Gordon Lewis directed Playboy-playmate, Connie Stevens (despite her good looks she's a REALLY bad actress) as a bimbo-ish history student who shows a lot of intrest in Ancient Egyptian history. Connie's birthday is coming up soon and her mum wants to suprise her with an Egyptian meal. She go's down to the store and asks the sinister shop-owner (who trys his best to put on a Bela Lugosi-type voice) what he can do. To prepare the feast the shop-owner has to go around dismembering young girls. My favourite scene involves a teenager crying his heart out after his girlfriend gets it from the shop-owner: his crying is so fake that your pants will be dripping after the film is over. This was a drive-in killer, by the way and usually played in a double-bill with H.G. Lewis's 2000 MANIACS. Look out for some other great H.G. Lewis titles such as SCUM OF THE EARTH, COLOR ME BLOOD RED, THE GRUSOME TWOSOME, A TASTE OF BLOOD and THE GORE-GORE GIRLS which are all avalible on Something Weird.
Not the best but a must see
First off this film is only for those with a love of really bad movies.Not Hollywood pieces of crap,but ultra low buget,"Hey at least the movie got made",kind of way.Ed Wood in color baically. Now having said that,on we go.
Terriblely acted,written,directed,and any other thing that goes into making a movie.But whatever you can say about it,it ain't boring.And it actually delivers what it promises.GORE.Which is the whole piont.
This was the start the Blood Trilogy,and compared with them(2000 Maniacs and Color Me Blood Red)this is the weakest,but any DVD like this with an audio commentary by H.G.Lewis is is worth checking out.There's also a wierd and funny short subject about meat carving with Brian Kerwin(star of Blood Feast)and a young Harvey Korman,who must have really needed the work.He cant possibly be that excited about cuttig meat,but apparently he don't turn down work. All this is facinating stuff for those already interested,and those who will watch anything.You wont be dissapionted.
