World of Blood Splatter
SPLATTER ME ALL OVER. THERE ARE JAPANESE CINE ALBUMS ON EVERYONE
FROM HUMPHREY BOGART
TO MOLLY RINGWALD. AND SOME (WE ARE THINKING OF THE HUGH GRANT NUMBER) ARE TRULY SHOCKING :)
BUT, STAND WELL CLEAR OF THE SPLASHBACK ZONE, NONE ARE AS TRULY SCHLOCKING AS THIS SUMMER SOLSTICE OF GUSHING BLOOD.
Do you even need to look inside? Btw Google Translate loves the title of this book. A real license to get poetic.
An IDEA instagram favourite! Usually posted on Monday around noon with the 'This week. Got me already.' kind of caption. It's from George A. Romero's 1978 classic Dawn of the Dead. It happens very fast but you can catch it here, 3 seconds in.
Also Dawn of the Dead. This is the pic that got this book blocked from the Instashop. Caption: 'I'm on a vegan diet. I see vegans and I eat them.'
It's not all blood red. The section of films inspired by Lewis and Romero includes what could be a wedding photo from the union of Man Ray and Penny Slinger but is actually a black and white still from Wes Craven's Nightmare On Elm Street.
And then there's the VHS aesthetic. Delightfully NTSC rental video cassette rendering of Lewis's 1970 Wizard of Gore.
Half man half pizza.
One third man two thirds pizza. Art direction in this book is wild style!
Deleted scene from the Kim Kardashian 'inside my fridge' series.
1965. Hershell Gordon Lewis's Color Me Blood Red. The trailer is a work of art in itself; This is a story of Adam and evil!
That's a great line!
The book is BRILLIANT. Always has been. Always will be. 175 pages and what's got to be close to 500 stills from the most lurid movies ever made. Published in 1985. A superBUCKETSOFBLOODbook!
