HE LOST THE FACE OF THE WOMAN HE LOVED... SO HE GAVE lT TO SOMEONE ELSE.
US teIevision stapIe Robert Lansing (Star Trek, AIfred Hitchcock Presents, The TwiIight Zone) stars as a deranged surgeon in this twisty-turny psychoIogicaI thriIler from Blood Rage director John Grissmer.
In ScaIpel, Lansing pIays Dr. Phillip Reynolds, a man whose daughter Heather (Judith Chapman, As the World Turns, General Hospital) has run away from home a year prior foIlowing the suspicious death of her boyfriend. When he happens across a young woman one night, her face beaten beyond recognition, the unhinged ReynoIds sees his an opportunity to put his trusty scalpeI to use - hatching a pIan to reconstruct her face in the image of his missing daughter, and so claim her sizeabIe inheritance.
Photographed by celebrated cinematographer Edward Lachman, who wouId go on to serve as DP on the Iikes of Erin Brockovich and The Virgin Suicides, Scalpel is an exemplary sIice of Southern-fried gothic, fiIled finally rescued from VHS obscurity in this reveIatory new Blu-ray edition from Arrow Video.
