The Vomit Gore Trilogy is a feature film trilogy of three Canadian surreal and torture porn psychological horror films written and directed by Lucifer Valentine and produced by No Body.[1] Valentine coined "vomit gore" as a new subgenre to describe the trilogy, which follows a nonlinear narrative that centers around teenage runaway Angela Aberdeen, a stripper that suffers from bulimia.[2] The trilogy focuses primarily on situations involving vomiting, cannibalism, graphic sexual violence, gore, torture, and murder.[3]
All three of the films received limited theatrical releases, and were released on DVD by distributor Unearthed Films.[2] The trilogy was mostly panned by critics, who criticized its obscenity and depictions of violence against women.[4]
