This is without a doubt the worst movie I have EVEN seen

This movie has absolutely no plot, budget or point. Save yourself the trouble of renting it and simply bang your head against a wall for a couple of hours... the after effect will be the same. The tagline says that it is "Deviant. Psychotic. Demented" this is in fact not true... In order to enjoy this movie for something other than a twisted comedy value you would have to be all of the above. I will admit that the video is so bad that it becomes funny, but this is not a good enough reason to want to watch it in the case of this film. There is probably a good reason that the vast majority of the people involved in this film have never done anything else - because you would not want to hire them after watching Disembodied. I like watching bad horror flicks, but this goes beyond that to somewhere very mentally painful. I recommend going to the dentist over watching this video

Ultra low budget Henenlotterian body-horror

Disembodied is about a young woman named Connie Sproutz (Anastasia Woolverton) on the run from the Plasmaster corporation. It turns out she is some of of genetic experiment with half-human/half-extraterrestrial DNA. She has been on the run for years and our story begins with her taking refuge in a place called the Grand Hotel which may be the dumpiest/sleaziest hotel in history.Connie has a strange growth on the side of her face which spurts a liquid that dissolves humans down to their brains which she then devours. She later gives birth to bloody blob-like things which seem to contain the essence of theses brains. This is shown in graphic detail a couple of times. She only seems to kill transients or low-life's. Her hotel has a hole in the side of the wall which is how she meets her only friend, a nice and attractive prostitute named Trixie who doesn't seem to mind how weird Connie is.Other than the scientist the only other character who gets much screen time is the sleazy and gross hotel night clerk who keeps trying to get the girls to watch educational films on super 8 with him. He is unsuccessful and later on tries to have his way with Trixie. He notices Connie watching from the hole in the wall and reaches his arm through to grab her. The films gory highlight happens here as Connie grabs a saw out of her dresser (where she has rocks, tools and lots of other odd items stored) and proceeds to saw his arm off in the film's bloodiest scene. He even manages to make it into Connie's room, spurting blood from his stump but he ends up like so many of her other victims, dissolved down to his brain and then devoured. Connie also has strange visions of alien worlds.Disembodied is a strange body-horror film populated with weird/sleazy characters and a vibe/setting you'd find in most Frank Henenlotter films (especially Basket Case and Brain Damage) or something like Slime City. Fans of Frank's films should seek this out but don't expect it to be as good as his films. There is no nudity, but the actress who plays Trixie is quite attractive. There are a few gore scenes and slimy creatures. The FX are decent for the budget, all practical or stop motion. The acting is fine for this type of film. Some scenes are too dark though. It runs about 78 minutes which is about the right length. Fans of stuff like Basket Case, Slime City, The Soultangler, The Deadly Spawn, etc. should seek this out.

Why Do I Torture Myself Like This? Why?

I think I'm going to write to the powers that be at IMDb and urge them to adopt a zero star rating. The first film which be in that abysmal category? Why, Disembodied, of course. And to think my friend had suggested I spend my time picking the lint out of his belly button! I should've. That would've been more fun that this sub-amateurish stinker.As far as bad movies go, this is good, if you know what I mean. The only reason to rent or obtain this film is to torture your enemy to death. You strap him in a chair, apply those clips that force your eyes open like 'A Clockwork Orange', then play this movie. Believe me, you'll get a confession out of him in no time. Forget waterboarding. Just thread this torturous film through a projector and press play. If that doesn't cause your enemy to betray his bosses, nothing will.
