Herschell Gordon Lewis' "Blood Trilogy" — Blood Feast (1963), Two Thousand Maniacs! (1964), and Color Me Blood Red (1965) — revolutionized the horror genre by introducing explicit gore and shocking violence, laying the foundation for the splatter film subgenre. With their graphic depictions of mutilation and taboo subjects, these films were groundbreaking in their raw and unrestrained approach.

Dubbed "The Godfather of Gore," Lewis' work not only influenced future exploitation and slasher films and filmmakers, but also shaped the blood 'n' guts themes that became key elements of modern horror cinema.

Tonight, AC and his splatter-loving panel (Anna Maurya, Nicola McCafferty, Ernie Rockelman, Chris Wylie) honor this low-budget master of the macabre, and the notorious trio of films that launched a million buckets of Karo syrup!
