Press Quotes
A lost classic... an adventure into the obscure mind of a filmmaker that was influenced by the underground ridicule of yesteryear and horror films in general.
—Ben Smith, Fangoria
Like a time capsule right from the video store days, down and dirty underground filmmaking.
—Terror Hook
Regional horror at it's most outrageous...a Super 8 film direct from deranged minds.
—Obscure Horror
Only for the bravest of deep-diving obscurity seekers...you will not be let down.
—Movie Cynics
Shot on Super-8mm film The Bloody Ape looks truly grindhouse with it grainy image, tinny audio and hard edits that suite the sleazy nature of the film. Not merely an imitation of the grindhouse aesthetic, this is the real deal.
—McBastards Masoleum
If you get a kick out of truly bad films, odds are you'll enjoy The Bloody Ape.
—Infini-tropolis
It's loaded with exploitation goodies--nudity, violence, badly-done gore, bizarre situations, extreme characters, weird comedy--and done in such an unabashedly crude way that it radiates its own strange kind of fascination.
—HK Film News
Good'n'gross nickel'n'dime exploitation horror sludge at its most feverishly enthusiastic and righteously offensive.
