Body Parts Audience Reviews

Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.
Pluskylang Great Film overall
Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.
Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
George Taylor Other than Jeff Fahey's over the top performance, this is a silly film. Basically an updated Hands of Orlac, where a killers body parts are used in a transplant and begin taking him over, since he wants to get put back together, there isn't much originality. Barely even a popcorn film.
callanvass I saw this quite a few years ago when I was younger, and I remembered being fairly unimpressed with it. How do I feel about it now?? I kinda dug it actually, it's got some balls. They really don't make them like this anymore. Not only does it have a car crash scene that makes some of the scenes in a Final Destination movie look weak in comparison. Watching Jeff Fahey go all unruly with everybody is always a treat to watch. I also really dug the family values in this one. Fahey's family really acted like a natural family, and I really felt for Fahey's descent into craziness. There are some things that I questioned, though. I didn't buy how Bill's (Fahey) kids were all nice to Bill, despite the fact that he knocks his son around, and yells a lot. You would think the kids would learn not to go around him. I also felt the finale was overblown. It was entertaining, don't get me wrong, but it was a bit too chaotic for my liking. It also has some pointless characters as well; Zakes Mokae as the detective being one of them. Jeff Fahey is a criminally underrated actor. He has always been one of my favorites, and why this man is stuck in DTV hell right now is beyond me. Stop being stupid Hollywood and recognize this man's talents! His unpredictable show is a main reason why this film is so entertaining. Kim Delaney lends able support as the caring wife, I dug her a lot. She's not too hard to look at either. Brad Douriff plays a likable role for once. That was rather funFinal Thoughts: It has its faults, but I simply cannot deny the entertainment it provides. Go in with low expectations and have a blast with this puppy. If you like gore, Fahey going nuts like nobody else can, I would check this one out. 6/10
Wavehill24 As bad and ridiculous as this movie was, i found the premise compelling and the questions it posed. Jeff Fahey started to look more and more demonic as the movie went on, and his hair changed too. I wouldn't recommend the film, but i think it was horrifying in a Frankensteinian way and fun in the way Blue Velvet was fun, in that dark, film noir kind of way,but Parts was without the aesthetics. I had to laugh because certain scenes reminded me of Robinson Crusoe on Mars, and then in other parts i actually wondered what was going on, like maybe there was a cohesive, tightly woven plot. I think i was mistaken on that. Too bad, the movie sort of had some kind of appeal. Anyone agree? I kind of thought the painter who received the other arm was a classic nut case in a way that was so over the top as to be humorous.I actually felt that his family relationships were kind of honest and touching, even though they saw their dad unraveling. Perhaps one of the highlights of the film.
Arca1943 One of the worse movies I have ever seen. Even more so because it was adapted from a Boileau-Narcejac novel. For years and years, every time a new Boileau-Narcejac suspense novel was released, among the list of already-published books, the title « ...Et mon tout est un homme » was always accompanied by two mentions : « Grand Prix de l'Humour Noir - 1965 », and below, in smaller characters : « En cours d'adaptation cinématographique » (which means : in the process of being adapted for the screen). So year after year, I was expecting the movie to finally emerge from the book. When it finally did, in 1991, I watched it. Poor me.In a way, «Body Parts» is a tour de force. Sure, Boileau-Narcejac wrote plenty of suspense dramas, very anxiogene ones at that, some of which also became masterpieces of suspense on the big screen : such as Henri-Georges Clouzot's « Diabolique » and Alfred Hitchcock's « Vertigo ». Except that « ...Et mon tout est un homme » is NOT a suspense drama : it is a FARCE ! A macabre farce ! Which is why it was awarded le Grand Prix de l'Humour Noir ! (Grand Prize for Dark Humour) The movie «Body Parts» is a tour de force in its own kind because, from a crazy plot whose eccentric twists are justified only by the fact that it is satire, they came out with a dead-serious, B-Series horror flick that is really a festival of involuntary humor !
