Venus in Furs

AroView: A high point for director Jesus Franco’s psychedelic Euro-sleaze vision, with a jazz musician becoming obsessed with a beautiful woman, her bloodied corpse and then mysterious and living reappearance a year later!

The enigma deepens as the hero is drawn into a kinky sex group led by the maniacal Klaus Kinski, in a series of increasingly weird encounters, all set to a brilliant 60s-era soundtrack by Manfred Mann. This cult item is also renowned for the casting of GIDGET beach-boy James Darren in the lead.

Note: the story is not directly related to the Leopold von Sacher-Masoch novel.
