Blood Diner (1987)

Lightning Pictures
Directed by Jackie Kong
My rating: 1.5 stars out of 4
IMDb
(DVD, Lionsgate)

Two brothers who run a vegetarian restaurant in Hollywood keep a talking brain with eyes in a jar who instructs them on resurrecting an ancient God. They collect body parts from restaurant patrons and others, then stitch them together to a form its body. Meanwhile, a couple of inept police officers try to solve the murders. Played mainly for laughs, it's never funny, and the two brothers are unlikeable dimwits mostly interested in seducing girls. Not even the scary rockabilly-fueled sound of Dino Lee in the final nightclub scene can save it.
