The Ghastly One: The Sex-gore Netherworld of Filmmaker Andy Miligan

Overview

From 1965 to 1972 Andy Milligan made 20 exploitation movies, including Gutter Trash, Torture Dungeon, Bloodthirsty Butchers, and Fleshpot on 42nd Street. For Milligan -- sadist, misogynist, maniac -- exploitation was no joke; it was his reality. Based on hundreds of interviews, including many with Milligan himself, this is a tale of violence-physical, sexual, psychological. Even the author got sucked in, appearing in one of Milligan's last gore-fests and nearly getting killed. But this book -- profusely illustrated with strange stills -- isn't just about a lunatic with a movie camera. It's also an anecdotal history of exploitation films, the birth of off-Broadway theatre, the Warhol crowd, and the malevolent place called Times Square. The sick secrets revealed here will shock even hardcore grindhouse fans.
