Based
on the pulp novel Laissez Bronzer Les Cadavres by Jean-Patrick
Manchette and Jean-Pierre Bastid, this film is a delicious homage to 1970's
Italian Crime Films and Spaghetti Westerns. Belgian filmmakers Helene
Cattet and Bruno Forzani abandon the blood-soaked Giallo landscape of
their first two movies [AMER and THE
STRANGE COLOR OF YOR BODY'S TEARS] for the blistering sun, creaking
leather and raining bullets.
After
stealing a truckload of gold bars, a vicious gang of thieves take refuge
in the ruins of a remote village perched on the cliffs of the Mediterranean.
This hideaway is actually the home of a reclusive, hypersexual artist
and her collection of admirers and family. These bohemians offer no resistance
to the outlaws, making it a perfect safezone. But when two motorcycle
cops investigate, the counterculture hamlet bursts into a hallucinatory
battlefield of double-cross, intrigue and spurting blood.
A Belgium/French
film with optional English subtitles; uncut 92 minutes,
