An amateur scientist tries to rebuild his dead girlfriend using parts sourced through a catastrophically irresponsible plan. Frank Henenlotter makes the absurdity deliberate, combining affectionate monster-movie parody with practical grotesquerie and the worst imaginable approach to relationship repair.

Synopsis and movie facts
A medical school dropout loses his fiancée in a tragic lawnmower incident and decides to bring her back to life. Unfortunately, he was only able to save her head, so he goes to the red light district in the city and lures prostitutes into a hotel room so he can collect body parts to reassemble her.
