Brain Damage
After altering the landscape of trash-horror history with Basket Case and Frankenhooker, the brilliant Frank Henenlotter unleashed Brain Damage, his ultimate Grimm’s Fairy Tale for perverted adults.
This is a slimy, grimy, gore-soaked slice-of-NYC-life that follows a poor schmo who is addicted to a drug called Aylmer. But unlike heroin or cocaine, Aylmer is a mutant penis monster who needs to eat human brains in order survive. Hooray! BRAIN DAMAGE is hilarious, unsettling, and jam-packed with bad taste gags that would probably cause John Waters to reassess his life’s work. Do not miss.
