Product Description BLOOD & FLESH: THE REEL LIFE & GHASTLY DEATH OF AL ADAMSON - "A fascinating study of reel horrors & real murder…" "Horror Film Director Found Slain, Buried Under Floor", screamed the 1995 headlines read around the world. But the truth behind the wild life of Al Adamson - including the production of such low budget classics as SATAN'S SADISTS, DRACULA VS. FRANKENSTEIN and THE NAUGHTY STEWARDESSES - and his grisly death reveals perhaps the most bizarre career in Hollywood history. Told through over 40 first-person recollections from friends, family, colleagues and historians - plus rare clips and archival interviews with Adamson himself - BLOOD & FLESH is the award-winning chronicle of bikers, go-go dancers, porn stars, aging actors, freak-out girls, Charles Manson, Colonel Sanders, alien conspiracies and homicidal contractors that House Of Mortal Cinema calls "Brilliant stuff… a superb documentary and one of the top films of the year."

Customer Reviews
I found this documentary to be highly informative, though I want to give the following disclaimer: I knew virtually nothing about Al Adamson beforehand. (I had only seen ONE of his movies prior to this). Diehard fans might find this doc to be nothing but repetitive common knowledge. I wouldn't know. Anyway, this doc is also very entertaining. It's packed with many great clips from Al's WILD filmography. I'm now anxiously looking forward to watching more of Al's work. My one complaint overall is with the "real-life" alien coverage. There's about 5 minutes or so towards the end that deals with extraterrestrials... it's totally stupid and kind of ruins the films credibility. I wish that content had been left on the cutting room floor. But everything else is gold. RIP Al!
