Lucker (1986), better known by its full title Lucker the Necrophagous, is a Belgian exploitation film directed and produced by Johan Vandewoestijne, and was released in France and Belgium in 1986.
It is notorious for several scenes of extreme gore and alleged misogyny, and has achieved a cult status by horror collectors. However, due to several distribution issues in the past, it has been banished into obscurity.
It is best known, however, for its unflinching portrayal of necrophilia in perhaps the film's most infamous scene, where escaped serial killer John Lucker (played by Nick Van Suyt) waits four weeks after slaying a prostitute to have sex with her badly decomposing corpse.
A re-edition by Johan Vandewoestijne was released worldwide in May 2007. In avant-première, the new edition was shown by the Flemish Film Museum and archive in Kortrijk on 7 December 2006.
