Frankenhooker

Jeffrey Franken, a young man who lives in Ho-Ho-Kus, New Jersey, is a power plant worker and an amateur scientist who specializes in bioelectricity. He is about to marry his fiancée Elizabeth. At the birthday party of Elizabeth's father, Jeffrey presents him with an automatic lawnmower as a gift, but when Elizabeth tries to demonstrate it, she is caught in its path and gruesomely killed. Jeffrey, in his grief, begins plotting to use his knowledge of circuits to rebuild Elizabeth and bring her back to life. His grief drives him to have mock dinner dates with the few pieces of Elizabeth he could salvage, as well as performing self-trepanations with a power drill to help himself calm down. He decides to make the perfect new body for Elizabeth, by harvesting the bodies of seven New York City prostitutes. After meeting several women and their abusive pimp Zorro, a muscle-bound temperamental crack dealer, Jeffrey tricks Zorro into letting him rent every one of the women for a single night to find the one with the perfect body for Elizabeth by lying about having them over for his brother's "birthday party". Inspired by a news report about crack cocaine causing the deaths of many New York prostitutes, he then develops a "super-crack" which he finds causes living beings to explode. Deciding he is doing nothing wrong as crack will probably kill the prostitutes anyway, Jeffrey lures them all into a hotel room under the guise of a "medical examination" and marks the women with the body parts he wants for Elizabeth. However, as he begins to have second thoughts, the prostitutes find the bag of super-crack and all smoke it despite Jeffrey's pleas, causing them all to explode into pieces. Zorro hears the commotion and rushes to the room, only to be knocked out by the flying head of one of his women. Jeffrey hurriedly puts the body parts into trash bags, promising to restore the women once he brings Elizabeth back. After picking the perfect body parts and sewing them and Elizabeth's head together into a single body, Jeffrey uses the lightning from a nearby storm to shock Elizabeth's new body to life again. However, her body and face move awkwardly, and she can only repeat what the previous women said before they died. The "Frankenhooker" escapes the basement and begins looking for clients in New York, who end up exploding from electricity when they try getting intimate with her. Jeffrey goes looking for Elizabeth and finds her at a bar. Zorro is there too, and upon hearing Elizabeth mention his name and recognizing her body parts, he angrily strikes her so hard that her head mostly detaches from her body. Jeffrey evades Zorro and takes Elizabeth home to repair her neck and revive her again. After bolting her head more securely to her new body, Jeffrey awakens Elizabeth, finding her memory restored. At first, Elizabeth is impressed that Jeffrey brought her back, but becomes furious when she realizes what her body is now made of and how Jeffrey obtained the parts. Jeffrey tries to explain himself, but he is attacked and decapitated by Zorro, who has followed him home. Zorro then attempts to drag Elizabeth away with him, justifying himself by claiming that most of her new body belongs to him. However, the spare prostitute parts have also been reanimated by the storm and merged into multiple grotesque monsters, which overwhelm Zorro and drag him away into their storage cooler to his presumed death, along with his drugs. Elizabeth decides to revive Jeffrey via the same procedure he used on her, but since the process only works on female bodies, Elizabeth is forced to put Jeffrey's head on a body made of the prostitutes' body parts to bring him back. As Jeffrey awakens, Elizabeth happily says they will be together forever as Jeffrey moans in horror at his new female body.
