Black Boots, Leather Whip

During one of the most productive periods of his career, writer/director Jess Franco (VAMPYROS LESBOS) resurrected the character of seedy private eye Al Pereira—portrayed here by key collaborator Antonio Mayans—for this hard-boiled erotic thriller. When down-on-his-luck Pereira is hired by a sultry client (Lina Romay) for a fast job, he finds himself caught in a web of seduction, murder, blackmail, polyamorous mayhem, and a Sadomasochistic centerpiece that is jaw-droppingly extreme—even by Franco standards—in this postmodern neo-noir, now fully uncut and restored from the original negative.
