Vomit Gore Trilogy: History and Key Facts

The Vomit Gore Trilogy is a feature film trilogy of Canadian surrealist extreme horror films written and directed by Lucifer Valentine, pseudonym of Canadian filmmaker Shawn Fedorchuk. The first two installments were produced by Randy Price (as No One Body). Valentine coined "vomit gore" as a new subgenre to describe the trilogy, which follows a nonlinear narrative that centers around teenage runaway Angela Aberdeen, a stripper who suffers from bulimia. The trilogy focuses primarily on situations involving vomiting, cannibalism, graphic sexual violence, gore, torture, and murder.

All three of the films received limited theatrical releases and were released on DVD by distributor Unearthed Films. The trilogy was mostly panned by critics, who criticized its deliberately offensive and obscene content and depictions of violence against women.
