CRIMSON 1973 (KINO) BLU-RAY

This one had a LOT of promise, but really failed to deliver on many levels.

Paul Naschy stars as a criminal who is trying to crack a bank vault along with three other gangsters, when an alarm goes off and they are forced to flee the scene.

With the police in pursuit a gunfight breaks out and and Nascy is wounded in the head by a gunshot. He is rushed to a surgeon whom the gangsters force to perform a bizarre operation.

They do a head transplant with another known killer called "The Sadist", and this results is an even more vicious killer, again played by Naschy. This movie had plenty of chances to really get it right and it fails.

There is no nudity in this movie which is strange for a Naschy film, and there are a couple of aborted torture scenes that would have been good as well. The film is very talky with people saying things and then nothing is shown.

The rest of the cast includes Silvia Solar, Evelyn Scott and Olivier Mathot. Save your money and buy other Paul Naschy films that deliver the goods. This reminds me of how USA filmmakers make movies now. Dull, plodding and boring.
