I'm going in blind, all I know is its one of the early HGL splatter films.
The Gruesome Twosome (1967) lmao
>The opening four-minute segment with the two talking Styrofoam wig blocks was filmed months after production ended in Herschell Gordon Lewis' office in Chicago during post-production when it was discovered that the running time was too short, and Lewis filmed this pre-credits segment to pad out the running time to make the feature over 70 minutes.
Padding was SUPER common practice in exploitation films, it can be traced back pretty far, like, I'd ballpark around the 30's (I'm reading a book that talks about it right now, actually lol)
