Blood Feast

“Gore-nography.” That’s the term Austin’s nonprofit video rental store has coined for that sicky-sweet melding of sex and violence the great Herschell Gordon Lewis created. To celebrate this new classification, Blood Shed Theater presents the original gore movie, Lewis' 1963 story of cannibalism and ancient Egyptian occultism. Unabashedly sleazy and shamelessly grisly, it’s one of the greatest made-in-Miami movies ever, and a real treat for fans of midcentury modern architecture – especially when it’s splattered with rich red blood. Cow tongues not included. – Richard Whittaker
