Could it be? A sexy horror movie in 2k23?


Lynch made a horror-sex-comedy for adults, one in which sexuality isn't something of which to be afraid.


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.


Suitable Flesh is a broad, raunchy, bloody affair that feels like something pulled straight from the horror section of a video store.


'Suitable Flesh' is a gory, horny, and outlandish Lovecraft adaptation that's a must-watch for fans of raunchy 80s horror.


Its emphasis is less on the occult or (for a while) ghastly gore and more on the psychosexual, playing out the full kinky potential of its premise.


The script operates at a carnal level that is filled with sex and barbarism. There are elements of love and friendship, but even these are portrayed at their most base levels. Suitable Flesh succeeds by catering to the most visceral human emotions.


SUITABLE FLESH feels like the USA Up All Night version of a much sleazier “Skinamax” flick, with all the spicy bits excised and the violence left in.


Adjusted for the modern era, Lynch’s film mixes psychological terror and body horror with a dab of eroticism, asking questions about identity, desire, and the vulnerabilities of the flesh.


Suitable Flesh is kinky, freaky, and a heck of a lot of fun.


Full of sex, sensuality, feminine desires, dangerous fantasies, and much more, Suitable Flesh is the genre film that fans have been screaming out for.

There was "X" last year as well, from Ty West.

They can still be made in the independent movie world.
