Depraved

Alex leaves his girlfriend Lucy after an emotional night, walking the streets alone to get home. From out of nowhere, he is stabbed in a frenzied attack, the life draining out of him. He awakes to find he is the brain in a body he does not recognize.

This creature, Adam, has been brought into consciousness by Henry, a brilliant field surgeon suffering from PTSD after two tours in the Mideast, and his accomplice Polidori, a predator determined to cash in on the experiment that brought Adam to life. Henry is increasingly consumed with remorse over what he's done. Only Liz, Henry's estranged girlfriend, reaches out to consider the creature's lo­neliness. But that can't save him: when Adam finally discovers a video documenting his own origin, he goes on a rampage that reverberates through the group and tragedy befalls them all.

Critic Reviews:

• " Fessenden's films are rich with social commentary and subtext. Depraved examines the nature of identity, memory, point of view and love in our modern world. " – Scott Phillips

• " It injects new life into a story that is essential to horror's DNA. " – Alan Zilberman

• " Depraved is director Larry Fessenden's take on the Frankenstein story, with his own modern twist. The update makes it gloriously timely without losing any of the underlying tragedy of the original tale. " – Deirdre Crimmins
