Blood Feast When Mrs. Fremont hires crackpot Egyptian cultist Fuad Ramses to cater a party for her daughter, Suzette, she commits the culinary catastrophe of the century!Fuad immediately prepares a "blood feast" made from the grisly body parts of nubile young women.Borrowing the leg of a gal taking a bath, the brains of a woman making out on the beach, and the tongue of a sexy blonde, Fuad and his machete plan on adding Suzette to the main course... The world's first (and most notorious) "gore" film, Blood Feast is both shocking and hilarious. It's also the first of the infamous "blood trilogy" from director Herschell Gordon Lewis (The Wizard of Gore) and producer Dave Friedman (The Adult Version of Jekyll & Hyde) who followed this perverse classic with the equally twisted Two Thousand Maniacs! and Color Me Blood Red. Two Thousand Maniacs! The Two Thousand Maniacs of a small town celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Civil War by forcing a handful of Northerners to serve as "guests" for a variety of macabre, blood-crazed fun and games. The festivities include a screaming man placed in a rolling barrel lined with nails, a hit-the-bull's eye carnival game with a pretty gal and a boulder, and a blonde sexpot whose arm is hacked off and barbecued!But before they slaughter the only smart Yank (Thomas Ward), he and the lovely Terry Adams (Connie Mason, "Playboy'sFavorite Playmate") try to escape. A marvelously perverse cult classick, Two Thousand Maniacs! is also the second of the infamous "blood trilogy" (which includes Blood Feast and Color Me Blood Red) from the producer David F. Friedman (Trader Hornee) and the director Herschell Gordon Lewis (The Wizard of Gore).Yeeeee-Ha! Oh, the South's gonna rise again! Color Me Blood Red When his girlfriend, Gigi, cuts her finger on a frame, maniacal artist Adam Sorg (Don Joseph) discovers a new shade of crimson that will make his artwork so special--human blood! Squeezing all he can out of his sliced-up fingers, Adam then stabs Gigi in the head, smears her face on a canvas and--voila!--a macabre masterpiece is created! After his bloody new painting causes a sensation on the local art scene, a crazed Adam continues creating sanguine specialties by extracting art supplies from victims outside his beach house. It all goes bad, however, when he zeros in on April (Candi Conder) whose scarlet pigment he plans to remove with an axe... A witty mix of dark humor and gory horror, Color Me Blood Red is also the third in the infamous "blood trilogy" (following Blood Feast and Two Thousand Maniacs!) from producer David F. Friedman (She Freaks) and director Herschell Gordon Lewis (The Gore Gore Girls).
