"This is Adam, and this is a story of Adam and EVIL."
Before you check out this delightful little Herschell Gordon Lewis trailer, pour yourself a drink. Take a gulp whenever the narrator reminds you that this is just a movie, or repeats the title of the film:
Drunk? Can you even still stand?
This is just a movie.
This is just a movie.
THIS IS JUST A MOVIE.
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD
THIS IS JUST A MOVIEEEEE
THIS ISSSSSS JUST A MOVIE
I GET IT ALREADY
Color Me Blood Red.
Color Me Blood Red.
Color Me oh good god...
The plot for this one is standard Gordon Lewis fare: a psycho killer uses blood as paint in his art. Shot on little to no budget, gory as all get-out... you know the deal.
Favorite moments, outside of the non-stop repetition:
0:01 - The first ten seconds of the trailer are a guy's twitchy eyes. Real selling point.
0:22 - And here come 12 seconds of a close-up of fire. Does anything happen in this movie?
0:45 - "A blood-spattered study in the mawcarb"... has anyone heard it pronounced that way before?
0:56 - And another 25 seconds of that same fire-closeup. I'm convinced that this movie is mostly shots of things burning gently.

Color. Me. Blood. Red. Color. Me. Blood. Red. Color. Me. Blood. Red. Color. Me. Blood. Red.
Remember, guys. It's just a movie.
