Mr. Stitch

About This Movie

Mr. Stitch is one of those films that sits in the strange overlap of drama, horror, and sci-fi, making it quite the curio for collectors. The story revolves around Doctor Rue Wakeman and his creation, Lazarus, a being stitched together from various human parts. The atmosphere is eerie, enhanced by its practical effects that give Lazarus a compellingly unsettling presence. You really feel the tension as he grapples with identity and isolation. The pacing can feel a bit uneven at times, which might not be for everyone, but it definitely adds to the unique vibe. And then there’s Elizabeth English, who brings a fascinating dynamic to Lazarus’s journey as he yearns for a life beyond the lab. It's a film that explores humanity in a very twisted way.
