Shock and Gore: The Films of Herschell Gordon Lewis and The Hershell Gordon Lewis Feast

November 10, 2016 by Robert W Monk

Shock and Gore: The Films of Herschell Gordon Lewis and The Hershell Gordon Lewis Feast are two extraordinary limited edition releases from Arrow Films celebrating the warped mind of horror and exploitation genius Herschell Gordon Lewis. Packed to the rafters with blood drenched shockers, the compendium represents the best of the serial gore producers efforts to chill the bones off fans ever eager to gross-out.

The multi-format releases feature 14 of the director’s films in glorious high-definition plus a whole host of extras exploring every last detail about Lewis’s career in the gore game.  Lewis sadly passed away in September after a long career in both film making and advertising.

 

Featuring 14 HG Lewis titles including Blood Feast, Two Thousand Maniacs!, Color Me Blood Red and Something Weird plus more extras than you could shake a bloodied stake at, this is a collection perfect for fans and newcomers alike to take in his particular vision of American horror in all its technicolor glory.

LIMITED EDITION CONTENTS (BOTH EDITIONS)

  • Fourteen of the Godfather of Gore’s finest attractions, newly restored from original and best surviving vault materials

  • High Definition Blu-ray (1080p) and Standard Definition DVD presentation of the features and extras on 7 Blu-ray and 7 DVD discs

  • Additional 2 bonus Blu-rays featuring 1.33:1 versions of Blood Feast, Scum of the Earth, Color Me Blood Red, A Taste of Blood and The Wizard of Gore

  • Additional bonus DVD: Herschell Gordon Lewis: The Godfather of Gore documentary

  • 28-page H.G. Lewis “annual” stuffed full with Lewis-themed activities plus archive promotional material
