I watched this recently funny enough. A worthy contender for the goriest movie of all time. But the OP is referring to gory horror films being made in this time era. I know, but I couldn't resist mentioning it, since there is no point making a film gory just for the sake of it. Brain Dead aka Dead Alive, was meant to be gory for the sake of it and it took Jackson's wry and dry wit to pull it off and this is not an easy feat.
We had some excellent horror comedies with gore in the 80's, but nothing to this extent.
It’s so crazy and OTT it’s like nothing I’ve ever seen before. And that’s a good thing. |

Yes, there's some really good low budget filmmakers in America like Richard Griffin, Henrique Couto, Dustin Mills, Chris LaMartina, Sean Donohue, Chris Woods, Adam Ahlbrandt, James Bickert and others who make gory horror flicks that are entertaining, plus more coming up all the time now digital equipment is so accessible, affordable and transportable. They typically shoot quickly and efficiently so it helps if you don't mind the inevitable pitfalls that come with microbudgets. Nice choices, especially Dustin Mills. I’ve seen a couple of his films, and they’re so different from each other. Love his use of animation, and FX. So imaginative and vivid inspite of the budget’s limitations. ‘Skinless’ would be my favourite thus far.
I like 'Skinless' too.

Todd Sheets... well that depends for your tolerance of micro-budget horror. One of his latest films; ‘Dreaming Purple Neon’ was stemming with over-the-top splatter.
I need to check out his latest, 'Bonehill Road' (2017).

Yeah. I kind of wish that we could go back to making those types of movies nowadays.

It was quite decent. Definitely worth-a-look.
