Horror fans, prepare for a cinematic resurrection! A “lost” gem from the legendary Full Moon Features is clawing its way back into the light. And the best part is that it stars horror icon Tony Todd! This gory, sci-fi-fueled horror/thriller, aptly titled Cutter’s Club, comes to us from the prolific and imaginative director Charles Band. The slick 35mm cinematography by the late, great Mac Ahlberg (Re-Animator) adds a touch of cinematic artistry.
The “Lost” Film
Filmed in 2005, Cutter’s Club plunges us into a world of macabre medical madness. It follows a pair of bright but perhaps overly curious young student doctors, played by Melissa Searing and Davee Youngblood. Their academic pursuits turn dark and dangerous when they stumble upon a secret society. This clandestine group, known only as the “Cutter’s Club,” is comprised of surgery fetishists and deranged monster makers.
Imagine a world where surgical experimentation transcends the boundaries of healing and delves into the grotesque and the monstrous. That’s the terrifying playground of the Cutter’s Club. The young protagonists get pulled into this shadowy organization. They’ll witness its members’ horrifying creations and ethically bankrupt practices firsthand. So, expect a blend of creatures born from surgical nightmares, copious amounts of carnage, utter mayhem, and truly macabre malpractice. This isn’t your typical hospital drama, folks; this is a descent into a fevered world of surgical obsession and monstrous invention.
What makes this release particularly noteworthy is its “lost” status. For reasons unknown, Cutter’s Club never saw its intended release twenty years ago. It languished in the vaults of cinematic history. Now, Full Moon Features is bringing it back from the brink of oblivion, giving this maniacal movie its rightful place in the horror pantheon. For fans of Tony Todd, this promises to be a fevered cinematic swan song.
