History Film / FleshForFrankenstein

The movie concerns Baron Frankenstein (Kier) who lives in Serbia with his wife and two children. As with other versions of the character, he is a MadScientist. This particular version wishes to create a MasterRace using body parts stolen from corpses. He creates a female body but needs a male, preferably one who has a massive libido and sexual stamina so that they can produce offspring. He scopes out the local brothel for just the right man and mistakes the {{asexual}} Sacha as the perfect lover. He and his assistant Otto kill Sacha and use his brain as the mind of the male monster. His friend Nicholas the stable boy, works for the Frankensteins but does not fully realize Sacha's true fate, only seeing his dead body and left with several questions. Meanwhile, the Baroness begins seducing him after she catches him having sex with fellow workers.

* AdaptationalAttractiveness: Obviously, this movie is loosely base don the original novel but it's usually fairly established that Frankenstein's creations must look monstrous. Here, they look like an attractive young woman and man. Sure, there are some stitches around the torso but it looks as though they just came out of surgery.

* YouFailGeographyForever / YouFailHistoryForever: Frankenstein prides the Serbian culture on its link to the ancient Greeks. Except that the two countries are in two vastly different parts of Europe and have equally different cultures. In fact, there's really no connection at all.

* DontDoThisCoolThing: Despite the vast amounts of sex and nudity in this film, Morrissey was a staunch critic of the free-love movement and used this film to show its consequences.

* NotEvenBotheringWithTheAccent: The movie takes place in Serbia but it's in English so it's expected that no one would have an accurate accent. Most of the cast speak with British English except Udo Kier who has a hilariously thick German accent and Joe Dellesandro who has a hilariously thick New York accent.

* MadeOfPlasticine: Stabbing someone in the back is a good way to punch their heart clean through their chest, apparently.

* VillainousIncest: In Mary Shelly's original novel, the Frankensteins were brother and sister by marriage only. In this version, they're biological siblings who have two children.

* AmbiguouslyGay: If Sacha isn't {{asexual}}, he is likely homosexual since he seems outright bored when women throw themselves at him.

* CreepyChild: The Frankensteins' kids love torturing small animals and seem keen on [[spoiler: continuing their father's work once he dies, much to Nicholas' chagrin]]. It doesn't help that their parents are [[BrotherSisterIncest blood siblings]].

* DawsonCasting: Nicholas is often called "stable boy" and the dialogue would suggest he was a teenager when Joe Dallesandro was clearly in his mid-twenties.

* UnequalPairing: The Baroness and Nicholas, although this seems to be part of what turns the Baroness on. One of the ways she seduces him is to call him into her bedroom([[BlatantLies because she's ill]]) in order to lecture him about on his work methods. And of course, she's wearing nothing but [[LingerieScene lingerie]].

* BlondesAreEvil: The Baroness and her children are all blonde and are evil to various degrees.
** Averted with Sacha, Nicholas, and the female monster.

* NotEvenBotheringWithTheAccent: The movie takes place in Serbia but the movie is in English so it's expected that no one would have the an accurate accent. Most of the cast speak with a British accent except Udo Kier who has a hilariously thick German accent and Joe Dellesandro who has a hilariously thick New York accent.

** This would later come back to bite Frankenstein in the backside since he initially thought Sacha was TheCasanova due to a series of misinterpreted events, and decided to use his brain for the male creature, hoping he would mate with his female creature. [[soiler: Turns out, he's not interested.]]

• {{Überwald}}: Frankenstein is attempting to create this.

''Flesh For Frankenstein'' is a 1973 horror movie that was filmed alongside it's companion piece ''Film/BloodForDracula'', which was released the following year. Both films were written and directed by Paul Morrissey, a frequent collaborator of Andy Warhol who allowed his name to be attached to their alternate titles but otherwise had nothing to do with them. The films also starred Joe Dallesandro, another Warhol collaborator, and Udo Kier. Both films dealt with themes of sexuality, classism, and immortality in a tongue-in-cheek manner, using classic horror figures of the 19th century.
