Interesting facts

The Corpse Grinders is a 1971 American comedy horror film directed by Ted V. Mikels.

Production

The film was based on a script by Arch Hall who Mikels called "such a nice, nice man. This was the only time in my life where somebody brought in a full script. It wasn’t called THE CORPSE GRINDERS. I started to read it and I was enthralled and right while Arch was sitting there, I said ‘How much do you want for this?’ And he told me.

"The Corpse Grinders is the giddy centerpiece of a four year homemade-horror phase in the life of Mikels. It’s also a defining moment in off-the-cuff, vintage drive-in comfort."
