Sleazy and grim little picture
modzilla138 March 2015
Warning: Spoilers
A guy with a lot of success among women (Manuel Tejada) has necrophiliac instincts and can't help rape and strangle them after seducing them. Police (Emilio Gutierrez Caba) finds out and goes after him, without much luck. At the end (SPOILER) they chase him to a reservoir, where he used to threw away his victims, and the car plunges into water. Grade Z production, pretty incompetent at the script and direction, but with very sick tones. The film takes place in environments and sunny places, nothing creepy, and the psycho is a wealthy bourgeois who kills beautiful women around. The grim story contrasts with the luminous set up, and the generous sex scenes (classified "S" in Spain) gets really nasty. This flick was entirely forgotten and lost, rescued by the fanzine Exhumed Movies.
