Viewing Notes
A pretty trashy “not” remake of the identically named film starring Udo Kier. While it’s not a remake it definitely takes its inspiration from the same material. Every single male and female character of any importance (save the gas station attendant and the teenage boy) gets 100% naked in this movie. That actually may be where the title comes from!
It’s hard to believe this even got released in Spain, let alone anywhere else. The plot isn’t terrible but the execution is pretty low budget. It’s funny that literally none of the victims ever fights back and they all die really quickly from their superficial straight razor wounds. We do get the time honored black gloves and straight razor and this probably also counts as a proto-slasher too.
