Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAdvertisements for the movie were cancelled in Wisconsin due to the Dahmer killings.
- GoofsThe lead character's car is struck from the rear by a tractor trailer, and we see him fly forward into the dashboard. A rear-end impact would cause the occupant of the struck car to fly backward. In severe cases such as this, the occupant would be ejected out the rear window.
- Quotes
Remo Lacey: Just listen to what your arm's saying to you, man.
- Alternate versionsTwo scenes were heavily cut due to Paramount's insistence:
- The car crash sequence was cut back by almost 40 seconds. Deleted was a backwards tracking shot from Jeff Fahey on the road to his twitching, severed arm on the ground. He stares at it in horror until it's splattered by a truck, and he passes out.
- The surgery scene a few minutes afterwards was cut by well over a minute, deleting several shots of Jeff Fahey's exposed stump/wound, and several seconds of the bloody, twitching donor arm on a medical table.

Featured review
This Frankenstein revisited picture, is a B+++ movie!!!
The film is enjoyable and is good fun.
The main character loses his arm in an accident, and gets a replacement from a dubious source leading to all sorts of macabre events, and the play includes having a mad scientist/doctor.
What I like about this picture is that even though the story spirals into absurdity and is preposterous, all the lead actors take themselves and the story very seriously making the movie even more hilarious.
Everyone gives full throttle performances which keeps the viewer nicely entertained!
I wonder if we have or will get a body Parts II?!
Worthy of a solid:
7/10
