Flesh Feast is a 1970 American horror-mystery film directed by Brad F. Grinter about a mad scientist who develops flesh-eating maggots as part of a plot involving the resurrection of Adolf Hitler.

Programmer's Pick

Veronica Lake’s final screen performance involves maggot science, a Nazi resurrection plot, and a healthy dose of grindhouse sleaze. If your horror tastes run toward the bizarre and the brazenly unhinged, Flesh Feast is a choice cut.

Overview

In Flesh Feast, Dr. Elaine Frederick is a scientist with a dark agenda, developing maggots that crave human flesh under the guise of regeneration research. Hired by a group of neo-Nazis in Florida, her real motivation is revenge for her mother's execution at Ravensbrück concentration camp. The Nazis aim to revive Adolf Hitler using cloning, and Dr. Frederick is a key part of their plan. While the conspirators believe she is working for their cause, her true intention is to sabotage their efforts. This low-budget American psychotronic horror blends mad science, Nazi conspiracies, and body horror in a uniquely off-kilter manner.
