“Frankenstein in Love”

by Clive Barker

Dr. Frankenstein works for a right-wing South American dictatorship, dissecting political dissidents in this blood-splattered, Grand Guignol - tweaking of the Mary Shelley classic. Not for the squeamish!.

Directed by Dave Barton and Alexander Rodriguez

El Coco (Tully) and Maria (Marnelle Ross): "Death's good, like the petit mort--a sense of a duty done. We should curse our mothers and bless our executioners."
The skinned El Coco (Tully) and transvestite coroner Dr. Fook (Stephen Wagner): "What do you think of me Doctor? A walking anantomy lesson. Feast your eyes, you'll never have such a speciman again."
Dictator Perez (Vince Campbell) drives a scalpel into the exposed brain of still-alive political prisoner Cicero.
The living dead, Follezu (Michelle Bylenga) and Mattos (Stephen Wagner) come to visit--and eat--the Cardinal.
Lazaro (Russ Marchand) and the dead infant: "I'm good with virgins, especially docile virgins who died early."
El Coco (Robert M. Tully) and Veronique (Grace Nassar): "I wish he'd sewn us together, like twins. So they could never part us, not in a thousand years, unless they cut us up into a thousand pieces."
