Mad
scientist Doctor Favel kidnaps and operates on young women as he teams
up with an evil disfigured woman. He is using their blood to correct
her disintegrating cells but - in reality - Dr Favel is more interested
in using her to continue his 'Frankenstein' experiments.
This
movie was one of a handful by John Carradine in Mexico, 1969 (he also
made JEKYLL
AND HYDE: DIABOLICAL PACT and LASVAMPIRAS
with wrestler Mil Mascaras). He would travel the world, appearing in
one film after another (he often mused: "Why do I have a house
if I'm never home"). He was in almost 400 movies between 1930-1995,
dying of natural causes in Milan Italy at age 82, in 1988. His final
films were the genre classics Gerard Kikoine's BURIED
ALIVE, Lana Wood's DEMON
RAGE and EVILS
OF THE NIGHT.
His costar is Regina Torne, a popular Mexican actress with
60 films to her credit. Just prior to making this movie, Regina starred
in the trippy Hollywood LSD melodrama THE
BIG CUBE.
