Frankenhooker (1990)

Poster for Frankenhooker

A guy named Jeffrey is obsessed with inventing weird tech and bringing things back to life. After a freak accident involving a remote-controlled lawnmower kills his fiance, he goes off the deep end trying to rebuild her using leftover body parts. He gets the idea to use sex workers as the source for those parts, which obviously doesnt go smoothly. His experiments take a dark and chaotic turn when the reanimated version of his fiance starts acting on impulses from the women shes been stitched together from. Things spiral fast, and Jeffrey loses control of the whole situation as his creation runs wild through the city. Its gory, absurd, and leans hard into dark comedy.
