Review of Color Me Blood Red (1965) by Melody S — 15 Nov 2007

â??Holy bananas! Itâ??s a girlâ??s LEG!!!!!â??

And that's the highlight. I guess I'm slowly realising that these movies weren't worth getting so excited over "finally" watching. This has aspirations to artfulness but it's just as bad as the rest. You can call HG Lewis "The Godfather of Gore", you can call him whatever you want but if such a moniker blinds you to simple critical judgment - that his films are just plain bad and deserve no more attention than so many other lost treasures - then, blah ... I'm too bored to continue that chain of thought. I've a few more of his movies to look at, and I will get to them - but I'm sensing "Maniacs" was about all he had in him.
