**Countdown: Herschell Gordon Lewis’ Top 10 Movies (From Worst to Best) According to The Internet 🎥🍿**

-

 When it comes to *the* maestro of exploitation cinema, Herschell Gordon Lewis reigns supreme like a bloody, campy king on a throne made of severed limbs and questionable special effects. If you’ve ever found yourself knee-deep in buckets of fake blood while wondering how you got there, chances are, you’ve wandered into one of Lewis’ many grindhouse masterpieces. His movies range from deliciously awful to surprisingly brilliant in their own, gore-soaked ways. 


So, let’s dive headfirst (preferably not with a chainsaw) into the countdown of **The Internet’s Top 10 Herschell Gordon Lewis Movies**, starting with the absolute “what were they thinking?” and working our way up to “okay, this one’s kinda good… in a weird way.”


### **10. *Monster A-Go Go* (1965)**

💀 **"The Horror! The... Boredom?"**  

Widely regarded as a dumpster fire of epic proportions, *Monster A-Go Go* was so bad that even Lewis himself basically gave up on it. Imagine a monster movie where the real monster is the sheer confusion you feel watching it. The plot? Barely existent. The action? Nonexistent. The audience's will to live? Drained. If you can get through this one, you deserve an award, or at least a free therapy session. 🏆 #MonstersShouldHaveStayedGone #CinematicTrainwreck


### **9. *A Taste of Blood* (1967)**

🧛 **"Dracula… but make it sleepy."**  

This one could’ve been the *Citizen Kane* of vampire flicks—if *Citizen Kane* were a sedative. At over two hours, *A Taste of Blood* feels like it’s trying to hypnotize you into forgetting you ever pressed play. Dracula gets resurrected through some blood-flavored whiskey (seriously) and goes on a mild-mannered revenge spree. It’s more *afternoon tea* than *bloodthirsty rage*. 🥱 #VampiresWhoNap #BloodySnoozeFest


### **8. *Scum of the Earth* (1963)**

📸 **"Bad Decisions in Black and White."**  

Before Lewis dove headfirst into the bloodbath genre, he gave us this exploitative, low-rent cautionary tale about dirty photographers and even dirtier morals. *Scum of the Earth* is basically the cinematic equivalent of a “don’t talk to strangers” PSA, except with more bad decisions and worse dialogue. It's a grimy little flick, but at least it's short! 🕶️ #StrangerDangerTheMovie #LowBudgetGrime


### **7. *Just for the Hell of It* (1968)**

😈 **"Teenagers: Nature’s Worst Enemy."**  

Here, we get a bunch of rowdy teens who do bad things... for no reason other than the movie title promises it. Chaos reigns, windows are smashed, and honestly, you’ll be left wondering if the real horror is what passes for entertainment. It's like *Rebel Without a Cause*, if that cause was petty vandalism and annoying everyone in a five-mile radius. 🎸 #TeenRebellionGoneWrong #NoPlotNoProblem


### **6. *The Wizard of Gore* (1970)**

🎩 **"Now You See It, Now You Gag."**  

Ah, now we’re cooking with… magic tricks? In *The Wizard of Gore*, a magician with a penchant for grisly tricks performs the kind of illusions you won’t find at your local kids' birthday party. Imagine David Blaine, but with more dismemberment. It's gory, nonsensical, and filled with enough fake entrails to start a prop museum. 🧙‍♂️ #NotYourGrandpasMagician #GoreGalore


### **5. *The Gruesome Twosome* (1967)**

👵 **"Grandma’s Wig Shop of Horrors."**  

What's worse than a bad wig? How about a bad wig shop run by a cannibalistic old lady and her creepy son? *The Gruesome Twosome* delivers on the title, and let’s just say it’s not for the faint of heart—or those with good taste. The kills are brutal, the dialogue is laughable, and the wigs? Honestly, they’re *really* bad. 🎃 #BadHairDay #GrannyGoesMad


### **4. *She-Devils on Wheels* (1968)**

🏍️ **"Motorcycles, Mayhem, and Misandry!"**  

Lewis takes a break from the bloodbath to give us an all-female biker gang that kicks butt and takes names in *She-Devils on Wheels*. It’s loud, it’s ridiculous, and it’s everything you didn’t know you needed from a biker film. Sure, the acting is as stiff as the bikes, but who cares when the dialogue is pure campy gold? 🤘 #BikerChicksRule #MisandryMayhem


### **3. *Color Me Blood Red* (1965)**

🎨 **"Bob Ross Would Be Horrified."**  

Take one unhinged artist, add some human blood as paint, and you’ve got *Color Me Blood Red*. It’s part of Lewis’ “Blood Trilogy” and brings a certain *artsy* flair to the gore genre. Imagine if every time you painted a happy little tree, you had to slaughter someone for it. Yeah, this movie goes there. 🌳 #HappyLittleMurders #BloodOnCanvas


### **2. *2000 Maniacs* (1964)**

🏴 **"Welcome to the South, Y’all!"**  

What's worse than getting lost in a small Southern town? Getting lost in a town that still thinks it’s the Civil War and celebrates with human sacrifices! *2000 Maniacs* is a twisted take on Southern hospitality, with folksy charm and brutal dismemberments in equal measure. You’ll never look at a town festival the same way again. 🎪 #SouthernHospitality #ManiacalFun


### **1. *Blood Feast* (1963)**

🍽️ **"The Granddaddy of Gore!"**  

And here it is—the one that started it all. *Blood Feast* is the first splatter film, the one that unleashed Herschell Gordon Lewis’ reign of terror upon the world. A crazed Egyptian caterer (yes, really) starts offing people to complete a sacrificial feast for an ancient goddess. The acting is wooden, the effects are hilariously bad, and the plot is paper-thin—but it’s a classic. 🩸 #FeastOfFlesh #BirthOfSplatter

Whether you love them or love to hate them, Herschell Gordon Lewis’ films are the epitome of low-budget brilliance. His movies paved the way for gore hounds everywhere, and we have him to thank (or blame?) for the glorious mess that is exploitation cinema. So next time you sit down to watch one of his blood-soaked masterpieces, remember—this is art. Horrible, awful art, but art nonetheless. 🎬🎨🩸
