*** Résumé en anglais seulement ***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.
