Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - LOVE IT!
I love this movie! It is cheesy and inappropriate in the best of ways. Total B movie. Nudity, drug use, exploding mannequins, pimp stereotypes and lots of [...]. But if you can handle that, and would like to see a mad scientist-esque character piecing together a new body out of hookers for his recently deceased fiance then this movie is well worth watching!!! The ending is fabulous as well as fabulously unexpected! I love this movie and I love my friend for introducing me to it. :)



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - There is "camp" and there is just plain boringly bad.
This one comes under the second heading. After reading all the great reviews I ordered FRANKENHOOKER. I wish I hadn't. We did the "all sit down and have popcorn while enjoying a funny movie" sort of thing and it was a total bust -- even though the popcorn was good.

Could you use some spares from the local brothel??
Would you kill to get the parts ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Where's my johnson? Oh god no!!!!!!!!!
Bill Murray says its the best movie of 1990 on the cover and I agree. Jeffrey Franken(James Lorniz the Andrew McCarthy look-alike) a hack medical student and failing inventor has a job as a garbage man. When his wife(Patty Mullen;Playboy Playmate) meets her demise(death by souped up lawnmower) he plans to bring his love back to life using body parts of crackhead prositutes that were blown to bits by smoking what they think is supercrack! If you like gory cheesy funny horror movies from the 80s and early ... Read More
