This is a long and boring movie with horrible acting, bad directing, long scenes that don't add nothing to the story and that only has 4 deaths? WHAT?!It takes 27 minutes to get to the first death, but the course to it is so slow and uninteresting that you may get bored pretty quickly. There are two good things in this film, at least for me: the music and the ending. the music is really cool and pretty catchy, it makes a lot of the scenes a little more fun and up bit. the ending was what the entire movie should have been, and that sucks because it's pretty funny and bloody. For me, it was a waste of time and a huge disappointment.Do you agree with me or do you find this movie entertaining and recommendable?
... View MoreColor Me Blood Red (1965) is a about a talent challenged artist who's "art" lacks a lot of things such as depth, creativity and form. When he's not brooding about or acting extremely weird, he discovers a very special shade of crimson that just drives the "critics" to notice his new style. What is his "new" style that has made the artist the talk of the town? Why is adding a new shade of crimson making him so popular and the biggest question, why is dude so weird? You'll find the answer to these questions and scratching your head at others when you watch COLOR ME BLOOD RED!!Herschel Gordon Lewis is an enigma, he's like Ed Wood but with business smarts and knows what brings people back to the theaters.
... View MoreHershell Gordon Lewis writes, directs and photographs COLOR ME BLOOD RED...just another of the bloody messes he is noted for. Adam Sorg(Don Joseph)plays a psychotic and obnoxious artist that gets acclaim for painting with his own blood. His art is sold at high end prices, but those rendered in his own blood are not for sale. He realizes that his supply is low; so in order to keep his career going...he starts stabbing and hacking young girls. The rude and crude artist seems to have no conscience. My favorite scene is where Sorg is squeezing blood out of a victim's intestine. This piece of splatter is filmed entirely in Sarasota Florida. Others in the cast: Candi Conder, Patricia Lee, Scott H. Hall, Elyn Warner and Jerome Eden.

This movie is for people who like quirkiness, b-grade film-making, c-grade acting, cheesy gore and.. FUN. I get the feeling that a few people who wrote reviews for this were obviously expecting something very different. This is NOT a horror movie, only in a very broad sense could it be considered one. It is a movie that is twice as unintentionally funny as any Ed Wood movie. There is no real comedy in Color Me Blood Red but the acting and direction will have you laughing throughout. This movie defines "grindhouse". Now that I've prepared you - Go buy it.I rated this movie 8 out of 10. It was very good at doing what it tried to do. Giving this movie a 3/10 is a joke, of course it's bad but that is the whole point! A phrase I see a lot on the IMDb is "BAD meaning GOOD", not many movies are more deserving of that praise than Color Me Blood Red.
