Color Me Blood Red is a low budget 1965 splatter film directed and written by Herschell Gordon Lewis. Color Me Blood Red is the third part of what the director's fans have dubbed "The Blood Trilogy", including Blood Feast (1963) and Two Thousand Maniacs! (1964).

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

An eccentric artist is criticized by a well-known critic at the opening of his gallery that he does not have a good sense of colour. He therefore starts a new series of paintings, for which he uses his own blood as paint. Soon however, he is too weak due to blood loss and needs to find another source of blood to continue his paintings.

"Color Me Blood Red" is also the name of a song by the Japanese visual kei band Malice Mizer.

Tagline: "A Blood-Splattered Study in the Macabre"
