Suitable Flesh Reviews
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
A fun horror flick, one I could imagine finding on VHS in 1989 and losing my mind over.
Bloody Disgusting
Meagan Navarro
Lynch captures the humorous, oft-sexy tone of Gordon's '80s/'90s Lovecraftian horror output while putting his own stamp on it through keen instincts and modern storytelling.
Austin Chronicle
Richard Whittaker
Lynch made a horror-sex-comedy for adults, one in which sexuality isn't something of which to be afraid.
indieWire
David Ehrlich
This is a film about the continuation of an immortal but ever-evolving spirit, and it makes good on that premise inside and out -- entrails and all.
The Daily Beast
Nick Schager
An affectionate homage that captures the psychosexual delirium of its genre inspirations, it's a throwback chiller steeped in blood, kink, and the terrifying thrill of violation.
Wall Street Journal
Zachary Barnes
It comes off a bit like a revived corpse: It moves, it makes noise, but it isn't quite the real thing.
Variety
Dennis Harvey
Director Joe Lynch haplessly plays much of this supernatural tale as an erotic thriller, the uncertainty of satirical intent leaving his actors looking silly.
RogerEbert.com
Glenn Kenny
While neither particularly profound nor earth-shatteringly scary, "Suitable Flesh" is better than passable grisly horror fun in a very specific tradition.
Inverse
Jake Kleinman
If you can see through the questionable VFX, Suitable Flesh is a joy to behold. And hiding under all that sex and blood, it might even have something interesting to say, too.
Assignment X
Abbie Bernstein
Suitable Flesh gives us fun and suspense on a budget, as well as allowing the cast to show diverse chops.
A Good Movie To Watch
Savina Petkova
Joe Lynch reimagines "The Thing on the Doorstep" with the tropes of 90s erotic films and a tribute to classic possession horror cinema, meriting all our admiration for his effort.
Spectrum Culture
Pat Padua
A minor Grand Guignol miracle that resurrects the spirit of Re-Animator and From Beyond.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
Despite its bumpy execution and general thinness, "Suitable Flesh" boasts a playfulness that feels ripe for slicing up and serving anew.
Crooked Marquee
Kimber Myers
Lynch never nears the gleefully demented levels of gore and black humor that were Gordon's hallmarks, but Suitable Flesh is still a fun if relatively mild homage.
Polygon
Tasha Robinson
For a movie with such a cluttered, kitchen-sink ramp-up, Suitable Flesh charges to a memorable conclusion that's perfect for celebratory group viewing, whether at the local multiplex with other die-hard horror fans seeking a seasonal thrill.
FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)
Tim Cogshell
This material? Not very strong. These actors? Doing what they can with it and actually getting it to a pretty creepy place.
Common Sense Media
Jeffrey M. Anderson
A throwback to certain beloved 1980s cult favorites, this twisted tale is exceedingly weird, darkly funny, and fairly edgy in ways that may only appeal to a particular breed of horror hounds.
Film Inquiry
Kristy Strouse
It's wild. It's weird. Joe Lynch has crafted one hell of a Lovecraftian thrill ride.
North Shore Movies
Daniel M. Kimmel
"Suitable Flesh" checks the boxes for those looking for the weird horror trifecta of gore, sex, and dark wit.
Tampa Bay Newspapers
Lee Zumpe
Lynch delivers an outrageous, unrestrained take on Lovecraft's grim tale of mind-transference and the quest for immortality by an entity lacking any semblance of decency. The film is darkly comic at times, wickedly racy, and giddily grotesque.
