Herschell Gordon Lewis : The Godfather Of Gore - the trailer!

The trailer is now on YouTube and here it is!

Thanks Member-X! ;-)

New DOCUMENTARY on the granddaddy of GORE MOVIES

Just brilliant!!! There's a new docu on Herschell Gordon Lewis in town called HERSCHELL GORDON LEWIS: THE GODFATHER OF GORE!!! Or rather it's gonna play festivals in the US so I guess it'll take forever before we get it on DVD but, still, VERY exiting!! The docu is directed by Frank Henenlotter and Jimmy Maslon and produced by Maslon and Mike Vraney of SOMETHING WEIRD VIDEO.

My own first H.G. Lewis film was THE GORE GORE GIRLS which I bought on bootleg VHS from Psycho Voodoo Video in Melbourne in, ehh, I forget. Early to mid 1990s. I reviewed it many yrs later for an issue of Stay Sick! magazine


There's a trailer for the docu on Something Weird Video's web-site but I can't embed it here so check it out here.

Take an outrageous ride through this wild world of exploitation films with this thoroughly entertaining documentary, HERSCHELL GORDON LEWIS - THE GODFATHER OF GORE!

Featuring cult director John Waters, Drive-In Movie Critic Joe Bab Briggs, Herschell Gordon lewis himself and a "cast of thousands," you'll witness the innocent bare-naked era of Nudie-Cuties before Lewis schocked the world with "Blood Feast," the first ever gore film!

But that's not all - Lewis conrinued to assault audiences with such retro campy classics as "She-Devils on Wheels," "Blast-Off Girls," "Just for the hell of It, "Two Thousand Maniacs!" and the incredible "Wizard of Gore!"

Experience a decade of motion madness - with tons of clips, rare outtakes testimony from the people who were there, and a rabid sense of humor - as HERSCHELL GORDON LEWIS - THE GODFATHER OF GORE leaves you laughing and screaming at the most amazing motion pictures to ever play American Movie theaters!

Come to papa!

I've been trying to get hold of Ocean Shores' VHS release of the new-wave HK movie JUMPING ASH (1976) for quite a while and this afternoon I finally secured a copy. Yay! Actually, I've lost out to other eBay bidders TWICE in the past and BOTH times was due to my "only" having placed 30 bucks on the tape and some other schmuck won it for 31 dollars. TWICE!! .\_/.
Haha. Well, that's life.

A while ago a got hold of the Greek VHS which is taken from an old and scratched (beyond belief) print with big Greeks subs that cover up the on-screen text. Anyhoo, today was my lucky day! I placed 50 bucks and won the fucker for just under the 9 dollar mark! Amazing!! All the way up to the finishing line I kept thinking "somebody's GOT to make another bid! How could they not! Are they daft!! It's JUMPING ASH for crying out loud!!!" Hahaha. Oh well, maybe everyone was out in the sun. My luck indeed.

For my old posts about JUMPING ASH go here.

Survival of the Dead: talk 'bout barebone!

I've just bought George A. Romero's latest entry to his never-ending zombie tale; SURVIVAL OF THE DEAD. It's the UK DVD and you can get it cheap from Play.com (retailing at 7 Euros) and I must say I'm slightly disappointed. Usually I like to watch a film's trailer and some of the interviews. And it's cool to have the subtitle option. Well, you can forget any of that with this release; It has got NOTHING! O_O!! Nothing other than the film itself (obviously)!! No trailers, no interviews, no crappy advertising "documentaries", no alternative footage, or even English subs for the deaf (which I'd call hearing impaired if I were PC, so I don't). What a crappy release! And in addition to that some people even say the film sucks, haha (but obviously I'm gonna make up my own mind about that).





Gee, there's more extras in this post than on the DVD!!:/

Bobby A. Suarez double now set for October!

I wrote about the upcoming DVD release of THEY CALL HER CLEOPATRA WONG and ONE ARMED EXECUTIONER here and I've been informed that the release is now set for October. Also, I can now reveal it's going to be one release containing both films, i.e. not two separate releases. The info I have is that Andrew Leavold's interview with Bobby A. Suarez is probably going to be included. Word is the interview is the only one that was ever filmed with Bobby! I certainly hope it gets included.

Put on your bikini and shoot machine guns

Yep, this video is from the one they're watching in Tarantino's JACKIE BROWN. It's an awesome video; I mean all it is is a bunch of scantly clad sexy babes with automatic guns going: "This is an AK47" pow pow pow pow.
- Haha. Absolutely fantastic! xD. And yes I've posted it before but, uh, I thought you needed to see it again. LMAO. It's available on VHS and DVD in the US. I want one!

Better not piss off a truck!

I bought DUEL (1971) on DVD today. It's directed by Steven Spielberg from before be became famous. Funny enough, I also watched another early Spielberg film recently; MURDER BY THE BOOK (also from 1971). I haven't actually watched DUEL for many years but I do remember it as being really good (and I also remember being disappointed Dennis Weaver didn't act like his Mccloud character in the film. LOL). Although made for American telly it did actually play cinemas in Europe and OZ. Unfortunately, I never got to see it at the cinema but only on TV. As far as I remember the first time I watched DUEL was sometime in the 70s or early 80s maybe.
