General info :
Herschell Gordon Lewis (June 15, 1926, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, U.S. - September 26, 2016, Fort Lauderdale, Florida, U.S. (aged 90)) was an American filmmaker, best known for creating the "splatter" subgenre of horror films.
He is often called the "Godfather of Gore", though his film career included works in a range of exploitation film genres including juvenile delinquent films, nudie-cuties, two children's films and at least one rural comedy. On Lewis' career, AllMovie wrote: "With his better-known gore films, Herschell Gordon Lewis was a pioneer, going farther than anyone else dared, probing the depths of disgust and discomfort onscreen with more bad taste and imagination than anyone of his era."
