Flesh for Frankenstein

 

bullet

(Reviewed by Preppy) - Sick, stupid, FUN.  Udo Kier plays Baron Frankenstein who makes beautiful male and female monsters. He wants them to mate but the male monster has the head of a man who wanted to become a priest...so he can't "perform"! I'm not kidding--that's the plot! I saw this when it was released in theatres in 3-D back in the early 80s. It was the R rated version (they said). Turns out it was the X rated version! Quite interesting. The story is stupid, the dubbing atrocious but the movie is so over the top (in acting and plot) it's plenty of fun! 

In 3-D (which was excellent) you have every disgusting thing you can think of thrust in your face. Rats, a severed head, intestines, a human heart at the end of a spear, etc. etc. It's not disgusting, just silly. And the movie was so stupid you just kept watching in amazement to see how bad it was going to get. My favorite line is when the Countess is woken up from a deep sleep and screams "How dare you wake me up! You know I have insomnia." (!!!) A laugh a minute in this one. Too bad all the 3-D prints seem to be gone--it was LOTS of fun that way. (aka Andy Warhol's Frankenstein) 8/10
