Mikels.[1][2][3] (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4When the Lotus Cat Food Company finds itself in financial trouble, the owners stumble upon a new, cheap source of meat\u2014the local graveyard. Only one problem\u2014the cats develop a taste for human flesh, and the pets have turned viciously against their owners all over town. Veterinary doctor Howard Glass (Sean Kenney) and his nurse Angie Robinson (Monika Kelly) become suspicious and begin to investigate. “It\u2019s a silly little gore comedy that stars Sanford Mitchell and J. Byron Foster as the owners of a cat food firm who find their sales booming when they accidentally turn a sleeping partner into cat food.”[4]Sean Kenney as Dr. Howard GlassMonika Kelly as Angie RobinsonSanford Mitchell as LandauJ.

This was the only time in my life where somebody brought in a full script. It wasn\u2019t called THE CORPSE GRINDERS. I started to read it and I was enthralled and right while Arch was sitting there, I said \u2018How much do you want for this?\u2019 And he told me. I said, \u2018Let\u2019s go across the street to my bank.\u2019 I liked the whole concept, but of course, it changed a great deal. I bought the property right then and there.\u201d[5]“The Corpse Grinders is the giddy centerpiece of a four year homemade-horror phase in the life of Mikels. It\u2019s also a defining moment in off-the-cuff, vintage drive-in comfort.”[6]Reception[edit]This section needs expansion. You can help by adding to it. (April 2019)Mikels said later “it made its own name all over the world. No matter where I go, people talk about CORPSE GRINDERS. Boomers, if you want to call them that, said they saw that when they were kids and have never forgotten it, it\u2019s the most memorable picture they ever saw. It set box office records, when the tickets were 25 and 50 cents, that, even to this day, surpassed even the big pictures today. It made a lot of money. It\u2019s the only picture where I made some money.”[5]In its review of the film, Variety wrote that it “carries enough blood to satisfy any cravings for this type of divertissement, but it’s a cheapie in every respect.”[7] Conversely, Eric Henderson of Slant Magazine stated: “Make no mistake, there is nothing in Ted V. Mikels’ infamous grindhouse cheapie The Corpse Grinders even a fraction as disturbing as the graphic art of its promotional one-sheet.”[8]References[edit]^ Vansant, Demonica. “Film Review: The Corpse Grinders (1971)”.
