Frankenhooker

Month Of Horror:
30. Frankenhooker, 1990
Oh mighty Thor… If I thought Toxic Avenger was schlocky, boy was I in for a real fest of schlockyness and grade A baloney.
I heard about this movie a bunch of times on Rue Morgue, and thought it would be funny and entertaining, also I knew it wasn’t Academy Award material, but I never imagined how shitty it would be. Lucky for me, I enjoy shitty movies (my limits are somewhere between the Tommy Wisseau movies, so you get the idea).
Anyhow, this movie is fucking weird and pointless and if I thought I had to shut my brain to watch Jennifer’s Body, I would have to drill my brain (the main dude in the movie does that like a habit).
SO, to sum it up: If you like shitty movies watch it, other wise stay away.

P.S. Writer/director Frank Henenlotter improvised the basic story at a pitch meeting. After getting the okay to make the picture, he then wrote the script for the movie. Needless to say, it shows. Also, I was going to watch My Name is Bruce, but I got mentally tired with this.
