Short film version of the Mary Shelley tale
Two beautiful women who live in the same apartment building each have a shocking story to tell. On the first floor lives Silvia Resino (Alexandra Paulhiac), who has three psychotic admirers while on the second floor, RoseMarie Curtis (Sasha Graham) is descending into madness after joining an insane acting school.
An artist obsessed with death is suddenly murdered, but his body disappears. His brother and wife, trying to sort out what happened, discover a dark world.
Captured by a brood of vampires at an old castle, a man finds himself in the midst of the vampires' dinner party and orgy (for both straight and gay). The vampire leader (Joe Marzano) gives a long speech, quoting from Oscar Wilde, and it's the same speech delivered in Marzano's Venus In Furs (1967). As the orgy evolves into a fandango of psychedelic imagery, the captured man turns to stone.
Joe Marzano adapted Edgar Allan Poe's famed short story more than once. After The Tell-Tale Heart (1958), he returned to the pages of Poe 28 years later for this remake: As in Poe's original 1843 story, a murderer (Marzano) buries a body beneath the floor of his room and thinks the heartbeats of his victim can be heard while the police are investigating. After he confesses, the sound is revealed to be the ticking of the victim's watch. In 1989, Marzano shot new scenes to increase the running time of this 1986 interpretation.
A mysterious drifter causes even more problems for an already dysfunctional family.
Horror anthology featuring three stories: The Downfall Of Johnny Garrett, Szamota's Mistress, and Stalk
