Trailer for the lost and rarely-seen 1960s drive-Inn gore-classic "Lights Camera BLOOD!"

Low budget horror filmmaker Mandalor is the laughing stock of the film community. His films are atrocious and his gore effects are pathetic. When Mandalor is filmed accidentally killing the lead actress of his latest film, he edits the graphic footage into the final cut and his film opens to rave reviews. Sinister plans hatch to MAKE MORE BLOOD-CURDLING FILMS!

Loving homage to the master

I recently picked up the DVD of lights Camera Blood I really enjoy seeking out obscure titles such as this. This is a very lo-fi loving homage to the godfather of gore Herschell Gordon Lewis while still maintaing its own original story and sense of style.

It boils to a down on his luck filmmaker trying to get more authentic death scenes and while I am sure you can fill in the blanks from what happens there. The cast really do suit the roles and give it there all, probably one of the strongest part of the movies. The gore really seemed like how HGL did it before a lot of modern make up techniques are now commonplace, improvise and I loved that aspect of the film for it.

I truly wish they had the budget to shoot this in 16mm to give it a bit more a authenticity and would be my one complaint about the film. Otherwise felt like it was straight out of the sixties and dare I say a downright kooky vibe!

Trivia
Kevin Doherty made the film as a tribute to the Godfather of Gore, Herschell Gordon Lewis and wanted the main character to have a similar name as Montag the Magnificent from "The Wizard of Gore." Being a big Star Wars fan, he stole the name Mandalor from the Star Wars universe, surmising in 2008, when "Lights, Camera BLOOD" was written, that maybe only a handful of fans would catch that he stole it.
