{"product_id":"wild-world-of-ted-v-mikels-dvd","title":"Wild World of Ted V Mikels - [DVD]","description":"Meet independent grindhouse movie maverick Ted V. Mikels, who is celebrating his 60th anniversary making movies - wowing audiences with his own special brand of guts, gore, violence, and dark humor. From the grisly The Corpse Grinders\u0026lt;\/i\u0026gt;, the early slasher epic The Astro-Zombies\u0026lt;\/i\u0026gt;, to the far-out Girl in Gold Boots\u0026lt;\/i\u0026gt; and countless others, Mikels tells his story for the first time in The Wild World of Ted V. Mikels\u0026lt;\/i\u0026gt; by award-winning documentarian Kevin Sean Michaels, director of Vampira: The Movie\u0026lt;\/i\u0026gt;.\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;Ted V. Mikels is a pioneer. In the 1970's, the concept of The Doll Squad\u0026lt;\/i\u0026gt; was appropriated by television mogul Aaron Spelling for his own Charlie's Angels\u0026lt;\/i\u0026gt; series (even down to using the character name Sabrina) and more recently inspired Quentin Tarantino with the turtle-necked look for the DiVA girls in Kill Bill\u0026lt;\/i\u0026gt;. Ted shares stories of the William Castle-esque movie premieres that included nurses and ambulances on hand at the theaters to assist \"scared-to-death\" moviegoers. Plus, he reveals for the first time details of his private life in the sprawling Sparr Castle in California with a harem of women called the Castle Ladies!\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;Original cast members Tura Satana (Russ Meyer's Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill!\u0026lt;\/i\u0026gt;, The Astro-Zombies\u0026lt;\/i\u0026gt;), Shanti (Corpse Grinders II\u0026lt;\/i\u0026gt;), Francine York (The Doll Squad\u0026lt;\/i\u0026gt;) and Lila Zaborin (Blood Orgy Of The She Devils\u0026lt;\/i\u0026gt;) recount their memories of working with Mikels, a director who had no cinematic limits.\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;Leading the tour is the inimitable John Waters, who is famous for directing Pink Flamingos\u0026lt;\/i\u0026gt;, Cecil B. Demented\u0026lt;\/i\u0026gt; and Hairspray\u0026lt;\/i\u0026gt;.
