Baron Frankenstein is van plan om een nieuw mensenras te maken, door een man en een vrouw samen te stellen uit verzamelde lichaamsdelen. Per ongeluk neemt hij echter het hoofd van een man die op het punt stond een klooster in te gaan, zodat de man die hij creëert geen enkele interesse heeft in de voortplanting, iets wat Frankenstein toch essentieel acht voor het overleven van zijn ras.
Flesh for Frankenstein Ratings & Reviews

- BigWest Wrestling25 november 202595. FLESH FOR FRANKENSTEIN (1973) Nov. 24, 2025 GRADE: A I specifically watched this today after learning of the legendary Udo Kier’s passing the day before. This film helped embark his career in grindhouse/horror/cult films that he would become infamous for. Also known as ANDY WARHOL’S FRANKENSTEIN, it was given an X-rating* (which was a thing back in the day, kiddos), and revolves around a very creepy version of the mad doctor trying to create a perfect version of the “superior” Serbian race. Also he’s married to his sister…so there’s that. Is that the least-disturbing part of the film? Possibly. It was almost filmed in 3D and honestly? I’d love to see that version. Udo Kier is delightfully insane as Baron Von Frankenstein (“To know death Otto, you have to f*ck life... in ze gall bladder!”), and the rest of the cast strives to match his energy. Lots of intense stares and madcap monologues makes for a film that must be seen to be believed. The acidic passive-aggressive banter between Baron and Baroness is outstanding, which is ironic as the dialogue was supposed to be all improvised but the late Udo Kier and others demanded daily dialogue, instead. Good call, Udo! For a movie named after Andy Warhol, he had almost nothing to do with it: one visit to the set and a brief visit during editing. Sweet gig if you can get it. Underneath all the gore and grime is the age-old debate about Nature vs. Nurture and the unfriendly reminder that while you can hate your parents all you want…you’ll probably still end up just like them in the end. For all its weirdness it’s still widely considered one of the 100 best and most influential horror movies of all time. You can see how it inspired many other films after it…for better or worse. *SIDE-BAR: you might be asking yourself, did “Rated X” mean a porno prior to 1990? The rating is now NC-17 but back in the day, a lot of X-Rated films had sex scenes that came pretty damn close to pornographic. I think the fancy term is “arthouse” these days. Words, shmords. If you’re only watching these movies to see naked people, I don’t know what to tell ya: me, I just like weird movies, and this one is definitely a weird one.
- Richard B3 september 2025This is one of those movies that was made specifically to shock the culture, that being said ... it's a fun little exploitation classic.
