Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.

Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

Staci Frederick Blistering performances.

Michael Ledo Frankie Stein (Jayson Spence) constructs "The King" (Graig Guggenheim) from various rock star body parts for his agent/producer uncle Bernie (Barry Feterman). From what I gather, he has the head of Elvis, the legs of Keith Moon, the hands of Jimi Hendrix, the butt of Sid Vicious, and something from Buddy Holly. However due to a mix up, he gets the organ of Liberace. This leads us to a film which concentrates too much sexual confusion. He leads a band called "Unnatural Urges." There was so much they could have done with this film had they not wanted it to be overly gay. The dialogue was poorly constructed as were the characters. It was a let down from all the potential the film had.Guide: F-word, sex, nudity (Kate Fallon, Joan Gerardi)

merklekranz A lot about "Rock n Roll Frankenstein" is annoying, starting with the simple fact that if you only have a one joke movie, the joke better not be beaten to death, and must be developed beyond the original idea. Unfortunately neither of the above apply to "Rock n Roll Frankenstein". The acting is amateurish, and the Elvis looks and sounds nothing like even the worst Elvis impersonator. Endless drug references quickly become tiresome, the homosexuality angle becomes extremely redundant, and the word f--k outrageously overused as supposed dialog. Even if you are into weird films, this is one to avoid. Everything seems forced, and comes off as though they realized that beyond the one joke, this was going nowhere. - MERK

CoolHandMook "Rock 'n' Roll Frankenstein" is a bizarre and stimulating mix between "Rocky Horror" and "Young Frankenstein". Taking camp and political incorrectness to the next level it is a very entertaining tale. It takes the Frankenstein mythos, modernizes it, and brings life to a once-tired franchise. It incorporates comedy, gory body parts and a far-out premise to spectacular effect. Writer/director Brian O'Hara has put together a classic piece of B-movie entertainment. Set in present day New York, an unscrupulous music producer puts together the ultimate rock superstar, King, a combination of the best body parts taken from deceased rock n' roll's legends. Despite the whacked out nature of the film's plot, it is very well done. Jay Hillman's camera work is above par and the acting is always entertaining. Particular nods go to Barry Feterman as the raunchy, shark like Bernie. As the King, Guggenheim offers a sympathetic and troubled superstar--albeit his troubles are far different than most can relate to. As played by Graig Guggenheim, King is a lot of things but NEVER a jumbled, obvious or senseless parody. Graig created a real, sometimes touching character; a man with the Christian mentality of Elvis conflicted with the "unnatural urges" fueled by Liberace's genitalia.With stabs at the music industry & homosexuality, this movie may be offensive to some, but it's important to note that these elements are never construed as mean or cruel intentioned. Well executed, with excellent performances and adept film-making, Rock N' Roll Frankenstein delivers an entertaining guilty pleasure worth a viewing or two.

coffin1 This has to be seen to be believed.A nutbag mixture of all good things in exploitation films.There's this guy named Frankie Stein who has made a perfect rockstar minus one part... his schlong belongs to liberace! (it was supposed to be Jim Morrison's love tool but junkie roadie made a mistake)That makes the monster a DIFFERENT kind of monster!There are really good songs (I'm a Monster, Electro-shock) and it's never boring (a rarity in this kind of movies i think)And where else could you hear Elvis singing... i got a boner blues ?Thank you and good night.. the King has left the building.
