Macedonia has someone who talks like a rural American
3 June 2010
One of the movies in which Paul Naschy doesn't play werewolf Waldemar Daninsky casts him in a supporting role, as a guy with a weird fetish. The movie focuses on a man who arrives at an estate where a professor is carrying out bizarre experiments. Among the other things that I noticed in "La orgia de los muertos" ("The Hanging Woman" in English):

*Although I couldn't tell that any of the character identified where the movie is set, I noticed a sign that said Skopje, which is the capital of Macedonia. Immediately after that, there was a man who had a rural American accent (although it was obviously dubbed). Whodathunk that Macedonia - if that's the setting - had that?!

*The main character is named Chekhov, and at one point, it sounded as though someone tried to say his name and made it sound like a sexual act.

Anyway, it's an OK movie. Not great, but entertaining.

Paul Naschy died last year. I wonder what the result would have been had he collaborated with Pedro Almodovar.
