Artys fartsy, horny, gratuitous Frankenstein. Feels like a troma but with more funding. What if Frankensteins monster was gay? And the mad Dr really really likes his own sister, and gallbladders. . .

Flesh for Frankenstein surely has to be the most ludicrously over the top and perverse retelling of the classic Frankenstein story ever put to screen. Emphasis on the "flesh" aspect - from the focus on the satisfaction of carnal desires of all the "human" characters to the…

Grandiose, gross and completely perverse, this brilliant retelling of the Frankenstein story is insane from start to fo finish. There are some seriously deranged scenes that still shock, from a bonkers decapitation to the passionate licking of armpits and wounds to…

Sublime video nasty classic. Part Criterion Collection art, part Vinegar Syndrome trash. I love when two very different labels agree a film is important. Lucious gothic atmosphere, gay Frankenstein monster, abundant severed flesh and buckets of bright-red blood. Flesh…

Death is a release from the impressions of the senses, and from desires that make us their puppets, and from the vagaries of the mind, and from the hard service of the flesh. The flesh was pretty fresh.

Flesh for Frankenstein

1/23/26: my complicated relationship with Andy Warhol remains complicated. This film is exquisite in 3-D. An absolutely fantastic adaptation of Frankenstein, one of my favorites. Long live euro sleaze.
