Summary: full screen?
Review: I love this movie and have been waiting a long time for it to come to DVD. Now it's available and it's only in full-screen. WHY? Was it shot that way? I don't know, but that would be the only acceptible excuse.
This film is over-the-top, tongue-in-cheek sci-fi horror comedy at it's very best.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Super Horror, Super Fun........Super Crack!
Review: In 1982 Frank Henelotter brought you "Basket Case", then in 1988 he gave you "Brain Damage" now in the good start of the 1990's he gives you the craziest movie of all time.....Frankenhooker!!!

You want to know something reall strange....after watching this movie three times in a row I figured why Henelotter got no true mainstream credit for this movie. Think to yourself for a second and look at the main character Jeffrey Franken....who does he remind you of? Think hard for a second..........that's right good old Jeffrey Dahmer but with out the cannablism.

This movie came out one year before Dahmer got caught and arrested. He does everthing that Dahmer did (Except for eating people) He takes drills and drills head but his own instead of others. He had dressed similiar to Dahmer and drove a similiar car. Killed people and played around with there body parts. And not to forget he puts the human remains in his cooler/refrigerator. Man that was kind of creepy seeing a big similiarity to Jeffrey Franken and Jeffrey Dahmer. Maybe Frank Henelotter secretly knew Dahmer and just made a movie that was based off what Dahmer was doing. No I'm joking.

This movie has everything plus alittle bit more. Super Crack, exploding people, drugs, sex bad launguage, hookers, and a frankenhooker, Beverly Bonner, a cold lawnmower and even a cool camera angle of a dismembered leg flying across the room and hitting the dresser.

BUY THIS MOVIE. Frank Henelotter needs to make more movies but hasn't since 1992. Make more, Henelotter forever!!!

Summary: WANT A DATE?
Review: Saddened by the death of his lover, and over-come with loss, he decides to build a new one from the various body parts of prostitutes he can murder. Terrified when learning the only thing his morbid creation can say is, "Want a date?", he tries to off her again. Only this time...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Gotta love this movie
Review: See what kind of New Jersey trash we New Yorkers have to deal with but then again i love trash

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Take it from Bill Murray...
Review: The copy I rented had a quote on the back credited to Bill Murray that read: "If you see one movie this year, see Frankenhooker." It turns out that the statement was most likely made with only mild sarcasm. Frankenhooker is damned funny. I thought it might be cute, but I had no idea it would be this good. This is what good, low-budget schlock is all about. It's smart, it's funny, and most of all, it's FUN.

I almost gave it 5 stars but I try to be extremely selective with that rating. If your like me and have thought about checking out Frankenhooker before but then thought again, think thrice and rent the damn thing. You might decide you want to own it.

Summary: One of The Classic Horror Comedies
Review: This is a must have for all horror/comedy b movieish fans out there.

Frankenhooker tells the story of Jeffrey Franken, whose wife get killed in a terrible accident. He can't live without her so tries to put her back together again using the body parts of various hookers. It's one of the funniest I have ever seen.

The DVD isn't pretty though. The picture is kind of blurred and never looks better than a rented videotape. The extra features are nothing to brag about either. Terrible Movie Factiods, and a biography/filmography of one actress, not even the star of the movie! The menus are the worst I have ever had to navigate through, very difficult to figure out.

Overall, the movie is a classic. The DVD's features are terrible, but get past that and you have a good movie though. I've rated this movie 5...in the movie's case. 1 if I had to rate the DVD alone.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Should be mowed down!
Review: This movie blows everyone out of proportion. It is not all that it is cracked up to be. And gives drill down a whole different meaning. However if you like this sort of thing it will keep you in stitches. After you see this if you are still in one piece, and have all your body parts, you may want to watch "Ilsa - She Wolf of the SS (1974)" ASIN: 6305808120. Just put the number in the search box and press ok.

Personally I drew the line at " 8 Heads in a Dufflbag " with George Hamilton. So after Frankenhooker, I had to use my head cleaner to get it out of the player. Someone in the warehouse loaned this to me. I gave it back the next day.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: funny as hell
