“F is for…Farnsworth!”
This is the final film in the infamous Blood Trilogy from director Herschell Gordon Lewis and producer David Friedman. The trilogy also includes superior films “Blood Feast” and “Two Thousand Maniacs”. While “Color Me Blood Red” is the most inferior film in the trilogy, it is still worth at least a one time viewing. The film does lack one thing that the other 2 films in the trilogy have and that is an original score. Both of the previous entries include a soundtrack that was scored by Lewis himself but for some odd reason he decided to use “canned” music for this one. The gore effects are also inferior to the other 2 entries…there aren’t as many but one effect in particular is especially grotesque (this would be the scene where a woman is shown strung from the ceiling with her intestines dangling out and the villain squeezes the blood out of them in order to finish his painting). All in all this is one of the least entertaining of Lewis’ gore films but is definitely worth a peek.
Review By: alanmora
For a Hershell Gordon Lewis movie, this one is a cut above most of the rest.
I am sure that when this movie debuted, people were shocked at its violence and blood, though by today’s standards it’s awfully tame–especially since the blood is obviously not the correct color (looking more like crimson paint) and the “guts” don’t really look like internal organs at all. Frankly, for a “gore picture”, this is one you can probably let the kids watch…unless your kid is likely to imitate the actions of Adam Sorg! The film is a super-low budget picture–the sort of trashy film that Hershell Gordon Lewis was known for making. There is no attempt to use competent actors, have good production values or make anything other than 100% schlock. So, considering that he INTENDED on making such a craptacular film, you really can’t be too hard on the final product. It’s bad–but I don’t think the film makers intended anything else. Now Lewis made LOTS of rotten films, but some of them managed to be entertaining despite their many, many shortcomings. This and TWO THOUSAND MANIACS! happen to have enough going for them that they are enjoyable in a kitschy sort of way. Not all Hershell Gordon Lewis films are alike, though, as many are not just bad but pretty much unwatchable, such as his MONSTER A GO-GO and THE Gruesome TWOSOME.

The film is basically a rip-off of Roger Corman’s BUCKET OF BLOOD (which, despite the title, is a very good film). Unlike BUCKET OF BLOOD, the acting in COLOR ME BLOOD RED is really bad–really, really bad. And, while Corman made a lot of bad films, his style was usually excellent. COLOR ME BLOOD RED is just pure cheese. Like the previous film, this one concerns a crazy artist who manages to impress the critics when he kills people to make his art. In BUCKET OF BLOOD, the crazed artist covers dead people in clay and in COLOR ME BLOOD RED the nut-job is looking for that ‘perfect’ red for his paintings and happens upon blood!!

The film begins with Sorg having his first one-man art show. However, he’s infuriated when an art critic savages his use of color. Later, Sorg’s lady friend cuts herself and bleeds on a canvas accidentally–at which point he is inspired to use blood! The problem is that he needs a lot, so he takes to killing. Why he didn’t just try animal blood or talk to a blood bank or get groups of people to donate blood for his cause, I don’t know! I guess this wouldn’t have made an interesting film.

By the way, it’s a tad off topic, but get a load of the first lady Sorg kills. Throughout the movie, this lady ALWAYS runs around in leotards like a dancer. She drives that way, goes to art shows that way and goes to the beach that way. It seems that this was such a low budget film that they couldn’t even afford clothes for this lady!

Back to Sorg. Now his art is loved by this snobby critic and he is in great demand. However, he suddenly refuses to sell these bloody paintings (I thought a couple of them were pretty cool)! And, because it’s like eating potato chips, he can’t stop with killing only one person. However, this is no bloodbath film–he only kills three during the course of the film. It all comes to an end when he’s about to kill victim #4–when her goofy boyfriend and her even goofier friends come to the rescue.

Overall, despite being a terrible film in every way (acting, direction, a stolen plot, dialog, etc.), the pieces all seem to fit together to make a reasonably watchable exploitation film. It’s bad, but fun in its quirky way. I’d give it a 1 or 2 for technical merit but a 5 for watchability. Overall, a 3 seems about right.

It was interesting to me to note that this film was made in Sarasota, Florida–just a few miles down the road from my house. Sadly, however, I have visited Sarasota’s famous Ringling Museum of Art and have never seen any of Adam Sorg’s paintings in the gallery!! Nor, for that matter, has the film been shown at the prestigious Sarasota Film Festival. Go figure!
