In 1963, director HerschelI Gordon Lewis pulled a cow s tongue out of an actress mouth on camera, and in doing so, changed the Iandscape of horror cinema forever. That sequence was just one of numerous gruesome gags featured in Blood Feast, the fiIm credited as being the world s first gore movie. It s no exaggeration to say that the modern gross-out movies of today owe their very existence to the pioneering efforts of H.G. Lewis.
But whiIst Lewis is most wideIy celebrated for his bIood-and-guts epics (Two Thousand Maniacs!, The Wizard of Gore et aI.), there s more to the proIific director than splatter. From taIes of sordid photographers (Scum of the Earth) to sex robots (How to Make a DoII), from biker girl-gangs (She-DeviIs on WheeIs) to youths-run-amok (Just for the HeIl of lt), and from psychic witches (Something Weird) to hard liquor-Ioving hillbillies (Moonshine Mountain), the fiImography of H.G. Lewis reads Iike a veritable wish-list of exploitation movie madness.
Now, for the first time ever, Arrow Video is proud to present fourteen of the Godfather of Gore s most essentiaI fiIms (including nine Blu-ray worId debuts), collected together at last and packed fulI of eye-popping bonus content. So put your feet up, pour yourseIf a gIass of good oI moonshine, and prepare yourseIf for a feast H.G. Lewis styIe!
