MOVIE SUMMARY
Lecherous businessmen Ernest and Peter go out for an evening of
fun with two girls from work. There’s a lot of drinking and dancing
and more than a little suggestion of frolics to follow, particularly
when Ernest has the idea they swap partners. With the willing Rita
by his side, he sets off in his car, roaring with laughter as they
speed into the dark night. Momentarily distracted as he glances at
his attractive passenger, Ernest loses control of the car. They
crash into the side of a bridge and the vehicle bursts into flames.
The bodies are rushed to the nearest hospital where both Ernest
and his passenger are certified dead on arrival. However, the
hospital’s surgeon, Dr. Adolf Berger, a former medic in a Nazi death
camp, discovers that Ernest’s brain is still intact. Encouraged by
his female assistant, Lydia, Berger decides to try out his long
cherished experiment- transplanting a brain from one body to
another. However, the only body available is that of a young woman,
Leda Schmidt, also technically dead in the hospital morgue. Casting
aside all scruples, Berger begins the operation! This
outrageous film, which now has much contemporary relevance, was
directed by horror specialist Leon Klimovsky, the man behind Paul
Naschy’s WEREWOLF and THE VAMPIRE WOMAN, and numerous other Spanish
“fantaterror” classics. The disc includes many exclusive extras and
the feature has been fully restored.
