Born in Somerville, Massachusetts in 1938, Bobby Pickett was a multifaceted performer who made his mark in the realm of cult cinema. He is perhaps best known for his role in Frankenstein General Hospital (1988), where his comedic talents shine amidst the film's absurd horror. Pickett also appeared in Chrome and Hot Leather (1971) and Strange Invaders (1983), showcasing his ability to blend music and acting in a genre that celebrates the bizarre. His legacy as a performer continues to resonate within the eclectic offerings of SassyFlix.
Frankenstein General Hospital
Dr. Bob Frankenstein (Mark Blankfield) is the great-great grandson of Victor. Unlike Victor, however, he is working at a Los Angeles General Hospital as an intern under the name of Dr. Robert Frankenheimer. What his coworkers do not know, however, is that he has a laboratory, which is in B&W while everything else is in color (because it has been "drained of color", Bob says) and along with his dimwitted, two left-legged hunch-back Iggy, he intends to create the perfect human to succeed where his ancestors failed. However, as usual, the experiment goes wrong when Iggy steals the brain of a sex and food starved teenager instead of a brilliant mind, and the resulting Monster (Irwin Keyes) wreaks havoc through General Hospital.
