Arrow Video USA stitches SUTURE (review)

Inspired by THE FACE OF ANOTHER and various sixties paranoia films like THE MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE and SECONDS comes this black and white nineties indie thriller.  Lookalike half-brothers Clay and Vincent (played by black actor Dennis Haysbert and white actor Michael Harris) meet shortly after their father's mysterious murder.  Vincent switches identities with Clay and then tries to kill him with a car bomb.  With his face destroyed and his memory gone, Clay wakes up in the hospital with everyone believing he is Vincent, including the police lieutenant who is investigating him for his father's murder.  As his face is reconstructed and he is filled in on Vincent's life, Clay is troubled by dreams that suggest an entirely different life which his psychologist interprets symbolically.  In the meantime, his brother Vincent has returned and is planning to kill him before he can remember his real identity.
