The New Jersey Film Festival takes a bite out of The Flesh People

by Jack Bolton - published 2026-09-19

In this film, roommates Ricky (Jorge Carrión Álvarez) and Geraldine (Louise Heller) decide that the best way to make money is to do underground surgeries on people and serve food made of human meat. Trigger warnings aside, this might be one of the best body horror movies I've seen in a while.
