Viewing Notes

This movie is bananas! Richard Burton weds beautiful women that end up driving him to murder each one. He marries Anne (Joey Heatherton aka Xaviera Hollander) who she discovers his secret so he shares how he killed each wife in flashback sequences. Like, he’s a terrible man but also a has very bad taste in women.

“They were monsters!”

“No they were women who just wanted a little love.”

This teeters on comedy. Plus all the actresses involved here are A+.
