William Earl Horror Film School is a feature in which talent in front of and behind the camera share the ins and outs of creating the biggest onscreen scares. “Suitable Flesh,” the newest film from “Mayhem” and “Point Blank” director Joe Lynch, is an unconventional tale.

Lovecraft’s short story “The Thing On The Doorstep,” is headed to theaters and VOD Friday, and can best be described as a gory body swap dark comedy styled after ’80s erotic thrillers.

Given the chaotic state of both Marvel and DC Comics franchises, it’s increasingly looking like Prime Video is becoming a welcome place for counterprogramming when it comes to the mainstream superhero genre. The streaming service has already tailor-made mature superhero shows such as “The Boys,” “Gen V,” and “Invincible,” with a satirical edge for an audience that might want a bit more than just flashy CGI destruction and convoluted Multiverse cameos.

Patrick Frater Asia Bureau Chief Unrecognizable from her co-starring and breakout role in 2018 hit “Burning,” Jeon Jong-seo is the centerpiece, the tortured protagonist and the athletic avenger, but not the titular dancer, in Netflix movie and Busan International Film Festival selection “Ballerina.” In the hands of fast-rising director Lee Chung-hyung, Jeon is a coolly calculating female former bodyguard who, until roused, looks like she is half dazed. The suicide of her best friend, a sweet wannabe ballerina, who had been blackmailed into sex slavery by a nasty gang, however, is enough to set Jeon’s character, Ok-ju, on the path towards “John Wick”-like ultra-violence. While Lee never leaves the audience in much doubt as to where the film is heading – an early scene in a convenience store is cool, shocking and righteous – his “Ballerina” is typically Korean in that it spends most of the first two reels establishing Ok-ju’s moral standing and motivation for the bloodshed that is going to dominate the latter portions. Once justified, Lee pours it all on, with a dose of weapons fetishization, a horde of mostly disposable villains and heaps of neon-lit bloodshed.
