Do you know what’s missing around ZombieMart? More heartwarming romance, that’s what. So it’s with some gleeful giggles that I point out the special edition DVD release of a cult classic horror-comedy.
The Frankenstein legend gets stitched up by the makers of “BASKET CASE” and “BRAIN DAMAGE” in this outrageous horror comedy. When his pretty fiancee “goes to pieces” under the blades of a runaway lawnmower, aspiring mad scientist Jeffrey Franken hatches an unorthodox scheme to bring his beloved back to life. He reassembles his girlfriend from the body parts of New York prostitutes. But his dreamgirl runs amok on 42nd Street, turning tricks that literally make people’s head spin. Can Jeffrey still find true love? Or has he created a monster?
If you need more info, well, a certain someone has a review of it (from the old VHS release, natch) right here.
The special edition from Unearthed Films includes a commentary by director Franke Henenlotter, retrospective remembrances from two of the cast, a make-up effects mini-feature, and production photos. (It does not, alas, include the talking video box from the VHS release.) $14.99 at Amazon.com.
