"The Blood Shed is a wonderfully sick twisted horror about the life and adventures of one hilarious, in-bred, and cannibalistic family. Each character's personna is rich and believable in a dememted way.
Beeftina's passion for her career, her father and brothers' passion for her just about made me jump up and squirm!
Coming from the advertising industy, it is good to see the pretensious and arrogant get what is coming to them in the true Boullion family fashion!
THE BLOOD SHED is a true horror treasure!
KUDOS Alan!"
Excellent movie!!!!!!!!!!

"This is one fun, sick little movie that doesn't take it self too seriously. You may ask yourself what the devil is going on, but stick with it - and you'll find yourself in the middle of one messed up experience. Less plot driven and more a 'slice of life', it's gross, funny and at times very disturbing . What I liked best is that it starts out not too seriously and slowly gets less-funny and darker as it goes on. Very different than anything you've seen before and beautifully filmed for a film with such a low budget."
One of my favorite horror films!

"The Bullions are a backwoods, inbred family of cannibalistic killers. Don't stop reading now and tell yourself that you know this story, it's been done before in many films such as Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Motel Hell, and even the House of 1000 Corpses, as this film delivers a new story in this well-done sub-genre.
Alan Rowe Kelly wrote and directed "The Blood Shed." Yes, many of the familiar elements of the sub-genre are found here. Grandma's wheelchair bound, says very little, and is reminiscent of the Grandpa played by Ken Everett (RIP) in TCM2. The inbreeding is evident in the children. Alan Rowe Kelly plays the daughter, Beeftina, and pulls this role off to the "T". And yes, there's a dinner scene or two that will surely make the weak stomached viewer wretch in disgust as the Bullion family eats some of the most disgusting food I've ever seen.
So, what makes this film different? It's a well written and directed independent film with actors that deliver a product well worth watching. It's a bit of a parody with homages paid to its predecessors. These inbred cannibals live in New Jersey. It seems almost like something you'd get if you crossed "Hairspray" with "TCM" and as bad as that may seem, it really worked quite well.
The cinematography, kills and gore f/x, costumes, and score all play into making this a great film.
Buy this film. I'm quite sure you'll enjoy it."
