The Creeping Flesh
A Victorian era scientist travels to Papua New Guinea where he discovers ancient remains that he brings back to London. What he doesn't know is that when exposed to water the flesh returns to the bones. This unleashes a malevolent being on the scientists friends and family.
A deliciously creepy descent into Victorian Gothic horror that preys on scientific ambition and consequences. Perfect for anyone craving atmospheric dread with a touch of body horror—the kind of film that lingers in your mind long after the credits roll.
