Gonzo genre veteran Joe Lynch (Hatchet, Mayhem) returns with his latest effort, a seemingly bonkers adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft's "The Thing on the Doorstep" that's earned rave reviews on the genre festival circuit so far.

Penned by Re-Animator writer Dennis Paoli, it stars Heather Graham as psychiatrist Dr. Elizabeth Derby, who becomes entangled with Asa (Judah Lewis), a young patient suffering from multiple personality disorder.

Derby ends up crossing the professional line with Asa, leading to a most unexpected collision of demonic possession and body-swap subgenres. Critics have roundly praised the film as a major comeback for the underrated Graham, in what's said to be a sexy, hilarious, queasy ride.

Suitable Flesh streams on VOD on October 27.
