Frankenhooker Review

Before I Begin this review, I just have to say, regardless of what the picture at the bottom of this review says, This film is for viewers of age 15 or over. If your wondering what the hell is Frankenhooker, Then you will find out by the end of this review.

When his girlfriend Elizabeth is killed in a freakish Lawnmower accident, Mad Scientist and boyfriend, Jeffery Franken decides he wants to resurrect his dead girlfriend but needs the body parts within two days of a huge thunderstorm (which is needed for the resurrection), So he decides to get the bodyparts from some of New York's finest prostitutes using supercrack to make them explode. Until his girlfriend comes back as Frankenhooker, A girl who wants everybody and money and who will love you.... To Death.

The film is practically one of the old 80's Grindhouse flicks in the fact that it contains Gore, Nudity and Crude Humour. The film features some pretty funny scenes including a supercrack orgy. The film features a few actors not that well known including James Lorinz (Robocop 3), Louise Lasser (Requiem for a Dream), Shirley Stoler (Malcolm X) & Former Penthouse pet Patty Mullen. All in all, A rather decent film that captures the feel of a Grindhouse flick however I strongly reccomend something like Planet Terror or Drive Angry to this. This is still however a very fun movie.***
