Director/writer/actor/producer Joe Lynch‘s (Shudder’s “Creepshow”) new movie “Suitable Flesh” has gotten its first teaser trailer. The new horror movie is based on H.P. Lovecraft‘s short story “The Thing On The Doorstep.”
“Suitable Flesh,” follows a once-esteemed psychiatrist who murders a young patient. After that, she helplessly watches as her life spirals into a nightmarish maelstrom of supernatural hysteria and gruesome deaths. That is all seemingly linked to an unstoppable ancient curse.
The film stars horror icon Barbara Crampton, Heather Graham, Judah Lewis, Bruce Davison, Johnathon Schaech, and Jonah Ray. “Suitable Flesh,” is produced by Amp International, who also produced the 2017 Lovecraftian film “The Endless.” The script is written by Dennis Paoli and executive produced by Brian Yuzna. Paoli and Yuzna previously worked together on “Re-Animator,” which is also based on the works of Lovecraft, with Lynch in the director’s chair.
“When I read Dennis Paoli’s adaptation of the story, I felt like there was a fantastic opportunity to update and subvert Lovecraft’s often old-fashioned sensibilities in a way that felt modern, relevant and even dangerous, with a pinch of 90’s neo-noir and a dash of eroticism to spice up the stew,” Lynch said. “Working with Amp and such a fantastic cast – including Heather, Judah, Barbara, Bruce and Johnathon – we’re so excited that this sexy, funny, scary film isn’t just a modernized love letter to Lovecraft, but the kind of provocatively entertaining “sin-ema” I believe audiences are salivating for!”
“We’ve been so fortunate to work with top talent both behind and in front of the camera on our recent films,” Crampton said. “At Amp it’s about developing not only memorable, thought-provoking material for an audience, but also fresh and unusual enough to attract the very best creative collaborators. I was ecstatic when first the formidable Joe Lynch, then Heather Graham signed on – her natural charm is always in evidence, but we get to see a different untapped side of her abilities here. I’ve been thrilled to be invited to join seasoned pros at Amp, and we are only getting started.”
“Suitable Flesh” will hit theaters and VOD later this year through RLJE Films and Shudder. Check out the teaser trailer below:
