Color Me Blood Red (1965)


































  A young painter at the end of his inspiration decides to start experimenting with his own blood instead of red paint. Finding his new project morbidly exciting, he keeps using his blood for paint until he is too weak to go on and so he starts taking blood from people he kills. When it's for art, how far is too far?
  An interesting addition to the legend of Herschell Gordon Lewis, Color Me Blood Red is a flick deep into the exploitation genre. While its character is downright low-budget and amateur, its main idea and plot is quite interesting and innovative. The classic Gordon Lewis gore and fake blood effects are all there to please even the most demanding eye plus we get a handful of violence all in favor of art and creation. They just don't make them like that anymore.
  For some reason, acting follows a specific pattern I would only expect from a Gordon Lewis film. Following that rule, the actors appear stiff at some points because they were not professionals and this was not a serious production but they still keep they easy-going mood, I-don't-give-much-shit-that-I-am-looking-in-the-camera approach of a true exploitation actor. Gordon Oas-Heim is the experimenting painter, Elyn Warner is his girlfriend who has to take it all and Scott H. Hall is the owner of a gallery that has the privileged to host these bloody creations.
Must watch this : with a friend who studies Art and a selection of everything red ; a juicy steak, tomatoes, red wine, a Bloody Mary etc. Then start a conversation about the pretense of most artistic endeavors and argue on what is art and what is not. Good conversations start from shitty sources!

Sit still, I missed a curve
We will price that painting at $20,000
I thought it was a simple modelling job

Common Law Cabin (1967) a.k.a How Much Loving Does a Normal Couple Need?


































  Dewey Hoople runs a tourist trap along the Colorado River with his wife Babette and their daughter Coral. Normally, he pays a local alcoholic to entice tourists to come to his place. Barney Rickett, an ex-detective that has stolen a fortune in unclaimed jewellery, arrives and everything changes...
  Originally scheduled and written to be filmed in a Hawaiian tourist paradise but due to budget cuts (of course) set in Arizona, this film certainly delivers what it promises. Russ Meyer, even after his plans and visions had to be changed, does not fail to deliver once again the doses of exploitation we all need. For me, it may have been better that the settings were like that. The everyday vices of everyday people that Meyer portrays can be realized better with the deserted scenery as a background.
   A parade of classic exploitation actors here too! Jackie Moran, Babette Bardot, Adele Rein,  Frank Bolger, Ken Swofford, Alaina Capri and John Furlong. They all blend perfectly good in the given environment and seem to look good with the famous Eastman Color! Unbelievably real characters and unbelievable reactions!
Must watch this :  in deep summer, with a Mojito in hand,cigarettes, sunglasses and sexy company!

Cherry, Harry & Raquel! (1970)


































  Harry, small town sheriff and marijuana smuggler, lives with his girlfriend Cherry while having sex on the side with Raquel and doing deeds with Enrique for Mr. Franklin, a local politician. When a certain "Apache" starts claiming his share on the marijuana market, war breaks out and everyone is left either dead or having sex...
  Russ Meyer in yet another raunchy classic exploitation film! Personalities, characters and profits crash and collide with each other under the influence of the scorching desert sun and the haze of money and weed! Everything you expect from Meyer is there ; fierce violence, buxotic women living for nothing except for seduction, strong men and their vain motives, fast cars and lots of desert dust! Oh yeah, I feel alive just by thinking of it!
  Charles Napier is the corrupt police officer and politician's helping hand, Linda Ashton is his nurse girlfriend and Larissa Ely is lady-of-the-lake Raquel. Bert Santos, John Milo, Frank Bolger and legendary Uschi Digard complete the rest of the cast in their own delinquent way. Cheesy acting, funny at some times but straight edge at other times, this is must watch for any man and woman!
Must watch this : with a good joint, a mojito and a lady that you want to get in bed with.Set the mood with that saucy bastard and some psychedelic dancing. If the combination doesn't help you I really don't know what can!
Something close to a trailer

Mudhoney (1965)


































  1933. U.S.A in Depression and Prohibition. Calif, a stranger with a hidden past on his way to California, is hired by Lute Wade in Missouri in order to get some traveling money. Calif falls in love with Lute's daughter, Hannah, but her no-good drunk husband, Sidney, stands in the way. Sidney soon turns the town against Calif with the help of a mad preacher, while he is out to get Lute's inheritance. Violence and passions breaks out!
  Yet another classic by master Russ Meyer. All the classic elements of Meyer-istic film-making dance around in this film too but it somehow feels a little bit different. Maybe because there is an extra touch of drama and desperation, blending perfectly with the era of the story. A must-see for self-respecting viewers.
  Standard Meyer cast! Hal Hopper, John Furlong, Antoinette Cristiani, Stuart Lancaster and Frank Bolger. Run-down characters in a messed-up time trying to find their way to salvation! My personal highlight is the preacher's wife, Lee Ballard! Ultra hot and buxotic. My personal fantasy!
Must watch this :  on a hot Saturday night, right before you go out, with some good bourbon on the rocks. Nothing beats that feeling.

Motor Psycho (1965)


































  Three motorcyclists get their groove on by raping women and causing chaos, under the leadership of an ex-Vietnam violent maniac. After they rape a quiet veterinarian's wife, he puts aside his personality and goes on to take his revenge with the help of a Cajun woman, whose husband was murdered by the gang. Who will kill who?
  There is not a single movie by Russ Meyer that I can characterize as not perfect! His movies have everything an open mind can seek in cinema ; thrills, dialogues, special characters, a normal story of violence in a picturesque place. Russ Meyer makes me want to live in his magic universe of seductive everyday women, dusty old places and muscle cars! Damn, I hate reality.
  Every actor in this film (and in any other Meyer film) is carefully chosen and it would take long to analyze each character's progress. Alex Rocco and Haji are the protagonist duo and the flame and passion of their lust for violent vengeance is all around the film. They even have an awkward fling thing going on! Must-watch if you respect yourself!
Must watch this : Russ Meyer is all about macho, sophisticated men and smart, curvacious women so watch this, overload your sexual identity and then start a long steamy conversation with solid statements leading up to sex! Must be an insufferably hot summer night, with a glass of Southern Comfort and the company of a classy, curvy lady (or your pick of a guy if you are a girl).
No trailer but it will do
