Default Body Modification Films

Hi everyone

The brilliantly original horror film, American Mary is due out early next year on DVD/Blu-ray and takes a fascinating look at the world of body modifications.

But which films about modifying the bod (voluntarily or otherwise!) are your favourites? Share the body horror love here!

Does Return of the Living Dead 3 count?



Yes? Good.

A far better film than the first one and Mindy Clarke > Linnea Quigley

Cronenberg's The Fly, one of the great films about the terrible effects of disease and sickness on a body - everyone rushed to declare this as a metaphor for AIDS but cancer is just as applicable...

First one that popped into my head, easily the best of the franchise (well 1-3 anyway, haven't seen the other 2 yet), and Mindy Clarke is way hotter than Linnea Quigley!
