TWO THOUSAND MANIACS!

'''Two Thousand Maniacs!''' is a low budget 1964 splatter film directed and written by Herschell Gordon Lewis. ''Two Thousand Maniacs!'' is the second part of what the director's fans have dubbed "The Blood Trilogy", including ''Blood Feast'' (1963) and ''Color Me Blood Red'' (1965).
The film has been noted for extreme gore and violence, as well as for bad direction and bad acting. Nevertheless, the film and the director attracted a cult following, largely due to the gleefully over the top quality of the violence and the villains. It was remade in 2005 as ''2001 Maniacs'', starring horror legend Robert Englund. The film's title song was sung by director Lewis.
