Heather Graham Is A Whole New Woman In Suitable Flesh Clip [EXCLUSIVE]

The world of body-swapping gets a terrifying twist in an exclusive Suitable Flesh clip. Based on H.P. Lovecraft’s short story “The Thing on the Doorstep”, the movie centers on a psychiatrist who attempts to help a troubled new patient with a seeming personality disorder, only to learn of a darker supernatural reason behind his troubles. Heather Graham leads the ensemble Suitable Flesh cast alongside Judah Lewis, Bruce Davison, Johnathon Schaech, Barbara Crampton, Graham Skipper and Jonah Ray.

In honor of the movie’s release in theaters and on digital platforms on October 27, Screen Rant is proud to present an exclusive Suitable Flesh clip.

The video, as seen above, finds Schaech’s Edward coming home to find Graham’s Elizabeth drinking earlier in the day than usual and asking for a cigarette, despite never having a smoked during their relationship. Before he can question her on her change in personality, she pulls out a knife and threateningly seduces him.

Suitable Flesh Continues One Of The Best Recent Horror Trends

Though his works have made their way to the screen throughout the years, the past few years have seen horror filmmakers look back to Lovecraft’s bibliography for a variety of projects. One of the first movies to begin this trend was the Nicolas Cage-led Color Out of Space, which garnered widespread acclaim and was considered part of his recent resurgence alongside Pig and The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent. The recently released Guillermo del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities also featured two direct adaptations of his stories in Keith Thomas’ “Pickman’s Model” episode and Catherine Hardwicke’s “Dreams in the Witch House”.

The author has also gone on to inspire a wide range of cosmic and Cthulhu-like horrors on both the big and small screens. One of the more notable was the Kristen Stewart-led thriller Underwater, which garnered mixed reviews and was a box office bomb, but has garnered a cult following in the years since. Others have included the likes of the Shudder-released The Beach House and short-lived HBO show Lovecraft Country.

One of the more exciting elements for Suitable Flesh is the inclusion of star Barbara Crampton as one of the movie’s key players. The horror genre icon has appeared in multiple Lovecraft adaptations over the years beginning with Re-Animator, with many of her follow-ups helmed by 1985 movie’s director, Stuart Gordon, including From Beyond, Castle Freak and Dagon. With fellow Gordon collaborator and Lovecraft fan Dennis Paoli having penned the script for the new effort and rave reviews coming from its festival premieres, Suitable Flesh looks to be another great continuation of modern Lovecraftian horror.
