Brief Plot Summery: Color ME Blood Red is The Gruesome and Gory Tale of the Temperamental and Annoyingly Pompous Painter Adam Sorg. Adam is obsessed with becoming the Next Big Thing in the Fine Art World, and is Desperately trying to Sell His Paintings to a Local Art Gallery. A Prestigious Art Critic who was invited to the Exaction is Shocked and Appalled by the Sorg’s work much to His Dismay. The Critic makes a Snide Comment about how Sorg’s Paintings Lack True Color which set Sorg off Down a DARK, BLOODY, AND MURDEROUS PATH to Critical Acceptance.

           

Later back at Sorg’s Art Studio His Obnoxious Girlfriend accidentally Cuts Her Finger on a Nail sticking out of a Painting Frame. Sorg sees the Blood on the Canvas and His Psychotic Mindset leads Him to Believe that Blood provides the Color His Art has been Lacking. While convincing His Girlfriend to Use Her Blood She Recoils at the Thought, and tells Sorg to use His Own Blood. Sorg takes Her up on Her advice and Starts Painting Using HIs Own Blood, But there’s the Demented Dilemma that Sorg’s Body can Only Produce so Much Blood. Sorg then turns to Brutally Killing Female Models and HARVESTING THEIR BLOOD as a Source of Color for His Ongoing Works. Will Sorg’s Self Indulgent Slaughterfest make Sorg the Artistic Icon He Yearns to Be, Or Just an Insane Self Absorbed Serial Killer?! You’ll have to Watch and See. Enjoy

Hope You Enjoyed this Bloody Little Art Lesson as Much as We Did.

FYB Saturday Splatter Movie: BLOOD FEAST!

FYB is Ecstatic to bring You what is Considered to be the First Ever Splatter Film EVER MADE! This Video Nasty is the Cult Classic BLOOD FEAST composed, Shot, and Directed by “The Godfather of Gore” Herschell Gordon Lewis Himself. BLOOD FEAST immediately became Notorious for its EXPLICIT VIOLENCE AND GORE. Also the Main Character/Killer Fuad Ramses has been described as “The Original Machete-Wielding Madman”open the Door for Future Characters such as Micheal Myers (Halloween Franchise) and Jason Vorhees (Friday The 13th Franchise).

           

Brief Synopsis: Fuad Ramses and His Family have relocated from America to France, where They Own and Operate an American Style Diner. Unfortunately for the Ramses Business is less than Stealer so Fuad takes a Night Job working in the Museum of Ancient Egyptian Culture. There He is compulsively drawn to a Seductive Statue of the Ancient Egyptian Goddess Ishtar. Before long the Statue of Ishtar starts speaking to Fuad through Visions, and Finally succumbs to Her DEADLY DESIRES!

After Surrendering to The Statue of Ishtar’s Malevolent Charms Fuad begins a New Life in which MURDER AND CANNIBALISM become His Daily Routine. He starts to Prepare a Ritual Feast to Honor Ishtar with a Lavish Affair SOAKED IN BLOOD, ORGANS, AND INTESTINES OF HIS VICTIMS! As The Butchered Bodies are stacked upon the Alter of Ishtar, Fuad slowly Descends Deeper Into Utter Insanity until He serves Only as Ishtar’s Human Puppet. The Only Issue is Ishtar Thirsts Not Just For HUMAN BLOOD, but She wants the Blood of Fuad’s Wife and Daughter as well!
