    "Sex! Guts! Blood! And all men are mothers!" - the rally cry of The Man-Eaters

    Previously on Splatter Matters: Herschell Gordon Lewis didn’t just bring the genre of Gore to America, he expanded upon it over and over again as he rapidly developed his craft - I haven’t mentioned this in the series yet, but the previous 8 films were all made over a 4 year period between 1963 and 1967.

    Truly incredible, and though it is likely Wright's most technically proficient film, it feels like the least showy. He's refining his technique to great effect and every second of this movie was pure joy for me. I bopped my head along for two straight hours.

    The best compliment a movie can get in Philadelphia is an attentive audience. We started with a particularly chatty crowd, who three minutes in were all glued to…
