Dennis Paoli wrote Re-Animator and From Beyond with the late Stuart Gordon. He talks to ComingSoon about newest film Suitable Flesh
Joe Lynch’s Suitable Flesh is more than just a throwback to the campy outrageous Lovecraft adaptations of Stuart Gordon; it’s a tribute to the late director who had struggled to find a home for the story himself.
Then unfortunately, terribly, Stuart passed away at the beginning of the pandemic and there were several Zoom memorials for him, and I reconnected with Barbara on those. Then when we were able to do a live memorial for him in LA, I flew out and attended. When I was there Barbara asked me if I had any scripts lying around, and this was a script I had written for Stuart back in the mid-to-late ‘90s because it was gonna be the next Lovecraft.
Joe had some ideas that sort of refreshed the script. When you’ve had a script for decades, you sort of get locked into certain character conceptions and Joe threw a wrench into that, gave it a twist, and allowed me to see it as a refresh. Even though is almost exactly the same story, it’s got elements to it that we thought really work.Understandable after all this time! I suppose that made this quite an emotional experience for you.
Well, it was Joe’s idea to flip the genders of the main characters, and that refreshed the script for me a great deal, and since the story was already about gender-swapping, it’s about mind-swapping across genders, we felt the change was inherent in the work itself. We always try to let Lovecraft suggest to us; Lovecraft is a very suggestive writer. He usually doesn’t show things; he allows you to imagine.
