The Films of Herschell Gordon Lewis: The Godfather of Gore.
From top left:
- Scum of the Earth (1963)
- Blood Feast (1963)
- Two Thousand Maniacs! (1964)
- Color Me Blood Red (1965)
- A Taste of Blood (1967)
- The Gruesome Twosome (1967)
- She-Devils on Wheels (1968)
- The Wizard of Gore (1970)
- The Gore Gore Girls (1972)
While a film like Blood Feast might be considered laughably inept and amateurish by today’s standards, it remains to be the film that is single-handedly responsible for the concept of “gore” in a horror movie. Herschell Gordon Lewis dared to show audiences what others were too afraid to, and set the scale for all splatter movies that have followed since.
