What would you do if you had a building full of ladies?
Plot: Karl (Klaus Kinski) is a nutter! He's the owner or a apartment building, which he rents out to attractive young ladies. Ok, so there's nothing crazy about that I hear you say- true, but when you have a series of tunnels linking ya attic laboratory to the ventilation in every young ladies room, it gets a little creepy. Klaus is white haired, in his mid sixties, around 5 foot 5 inches tall, a doctor and he also happens to be the son of a Nazi scientist. This does not bode well for our tenants me thinks. One by one, the ladies vanish and various body parts end up in jars of formaldehyde in his lab, to keep his imprisoned, mute lady friend company.
Everything is hunky dory for Klaus, until a meddling Jewish fellow pops by and starts harassing him. Well, what's a crazed Nazi scientist to do???
This is a fun film. Not so much scary (the poster makes it look really screwed up), but you can't help but like Karl, especially when he's putting on his 'lippy' and mascara.
Directed by David Schmoeller (Tourist Trap), with music by Pino Donaggio (Tourist Trap, Piranha, The Howling).
Budget: $?
Gross: $?
Fun Fact: This film is so sought after on DVD (since it is now out of print), you have to shell out over $30 on-line to grab it. A bargain from what I saw. A remake is really required!
