Review Date:

'Gruesome Twosome' has potential but is hindered by Lewis's usual flaws and technical issues, though it boasts excellent supplementary material.

Arrow's restoration of films scanned at 2K improved visuals but retained original flaws, and mono soundtracks were restored with some audio issues persisting, capturing their authentic historical condition.

Audio: 39

The Gruesome Twosome's LPCM mono audio struggles with brief gaps, notable hiss, and slight distortion, particularly in higher tones. Despite these issues, certain musical elements like the harpsichord and Bond-esque orchestral cues remain robust, and dialogue is mostly clear yet sometimes mildly distorted.

Extra: 56

Arrow's set bundles two films/disc with a mixed supplements menu, featuring specifics like Peaches Christ on 'The Gruesome Twosome' and general content like 'It Came From Florida.' Includes trailers, commentaries by Lewis, and intros for each film.

Movie: 36

Arrow Video honors 'Godfather of Gore' Herschell Gordon Lewis with a lavish Blu-ray set, featuring 14 films and rich extras, showcasing his unique mix of horror and humor in cult cinema.
