Frankenhooker
After making horror history with Basket Case and Brain Damage, the incomparable Frank Henenlotter unleashed Frankenhooker – the greatest transmutation of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein that you’ll ever see. After accidentally murdering the love of his life, Jeffrey Franken decides to reanimate her with the help of a drug named Supercrack… . . and the body parts of a dozen streetwalkers. Feeling like a twisted mash-up between John Waters’s Serial Mom and Stuart Gordon’s Re-Animator, Frankenhooker is a bad taste triumph that revels in sublime camp, gloopy gore, and neon-soaked dreamscapes. Plus an iconic performance by Patty Mullen as the eponymous title character.
