For his 1988 big-budget EuroSleaze classic inspired by EYES WITHOUT A FACE, director Jess Franco brought together an international all-star cast – including Helmut Berger (THE DAMNED), Brigitte Lahaie (THE FEMALE EXECUTIONER), Chris Mitchum (SUMMERTIME KILLER), Stéphane Audran (COUP DE TORCHON), Caroline Munro (MANIAC) and Telly Savalas – for a glossily depraved tale of disfigurement, dismemberment, libidinous brutes, Nazi surgeons, Paris discos, face-ripping, throat-stabbing, eyeball-piercing and what may be Uncle Jess’ most rewardingly ambiguous ending ever. Anton Diffring (CIRCUS OF HORRORS) and Florence Guérin (CALIGULA & MESSALINA) co-star – with appearances by Howard Vernon (THE AWFUL DR. ORLOFF) and Lina Romay – in this unapologetically graphic shocker, now scanned for the first time in 4K from the original negative with all-new Special Features.
