The Corpse Grinders (1971)

The Corpse Grinders (1971)

Let it be known that in the world of competetive commerce, when trying to make headway in the feline food industry, one potential way of metigating expenses is to…grind up people and can them as your products. That’s basically why a couple of entrepreneurs have a giant grinder in the back room of their cat food business. Nifty!

The Corpse Grinders is a silly horror flick with a ridiculous and predictable plot. But it’s damn fun. Sending folks through a grinder and having them come out the other side looking like pink-dyed potted meat is really all you need. That’s why that exact thing is shown probably twenty times through the course of the film. The action scenes and big-breasted women are just icing on the cake.

An unexpected consequence of feeding cats ground-up people is that they get a ravenous taste for human flesh and begin attacking their owners. This is actually the worst part of the movie. The scenes with cats are throw-aways, and you get the feeling that the filmmakers felt the exact same way–here’s a couple of cat attacks, now BACK TO GRINDING CORPSES!

Oddly enough, everyone is sent through the grinder completely clothed. That’s a bit of disappointment when you repeatedly tease your audience with curvy women. But what do I know?
