Rating: 3.5/4 -- It was perhaps Corman's first film to establish a really rich atmosphere, filled with nighttime shadows and a general edginess, which only grew richer on the subsequent Poe films. Full Review

A monolith of lowbrow entertainment from the days when cheap movies could be made and marketed cheaply. Full Review

Rating: 3/4 -- What better way to undercut the worst of artistic pretensions than to do it with a slapdash movie produced in five days called A Bucket of Blood? Full Review

Rating: 4/5 -- It's a low budget masterwork that skewers the fad of its era while lambasting the ever-fickle art world. Full Review

Description by OLDIES.com:

One of the most well-known films from director Roger Corman, A Bucket of Blood tells the story of Walter Paisley (Dick Miller), a busboy who, after accidentally killing his landlady's cat and covering the body in plaster to hide the evidence, is acclaimed as a brilliant sculptor. Walter finds himself resorting to the same methods to produce new work, and soon people start mysteriously disappearing. Not wanting to direct another conventional horror flick, Corman and screenwriter Charles B. Griffith came up with the concept for this entertaining black comedy about bad artists and the hypocrisy of the art world at large.
