I bought the Blood Trilogy and got into Blood Feast and Two Thousand Maniacs pretty much about a year ago. I should check out Color Me Blood Red and have...an Egyptian Feast soon.

Even though I had the movies on DVD, I picked up the Blood Trilogy on blu.

RIP Godfather of Gore. Your movies may seem "quaint" by today's movies, they paved the way for pushing the envelope.

I did a five film marathon last night in memory of the Godfather of Gore; the man was truly an innovator. R.I.P. H.G. Lewis.
