Review of Frankenhooker (1990) by Horrific R — 17 Dec 2012
Frankenhooker is absolutely amazing... for a piece of trash. Frank Henenlotter returns to give us a less gory but more comedic horror romp. It's completely over the top, in the style of something like Dead Alive (AKA Brain Dead), but it's also extremely funny and entertaining, with some great 80's horror dialogue.
James Morinz's astonishing performance is a thing of beauty, as is a room full of exploding hookers doped out on super crack. This guy goes through some real craziness to get his dead girlfriend back, and every moment of it is pure cinema magic.
It's just a brilliant piece of work and highly recommended for any horror fan.
