About Me |
|
| H.G. Lewis with The Pink Holes ... Welcome to the Godfather of Gore's official MySpace home!The incredibly popular, violent horror films of recent decades, such as The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Friday the 13th, and A Nightmare on Elm Street, owe much of their existence to the undisputed Godfather of Gore -- Herschell Gordon Lewis. In 1963, with his monumental splatter movie Blood Feast, Lewis single-handedly changed the face of horror cinema forever."Herschell Gordon Lewis is the man who put red meat into the American cinematic diet. Ultimately, Herschell made Quentin Tarantino possible." -- Joe Bob BriggsAs well as virtually inventing the gore generation, Lewis also produced a number of "exploitation" movies sampling a full gamut of subjects from wife-swapping and ESP to rock 'n' roll and LSD. (Excerpted from Christopher Wayne Curry 's A Taste of Blood: The Films of Herschell Gordon Lewis) |
