Venus in Furs1969
“Venus in Furs will be smiling.”
Directed by Jesús Franco
The premise
After a jazz musician finds a woman's corpse washed up on the beach and remembers that he witnessed her murder at a party the previous night, a woman who bears a strong resemblance to her begins to exact revenge on the murderers.
Horror Vault's take
A jazz musician haunted by the memory of a woman's brutal murder finds himself drawn into a waking nightmare when a mysterious stranger bearing her exact likeness appears and begins circling those responsible for her death. Director Jesús Franco weaves a psychosexual fever dream through smoky nightclubs and sun-drenched beaches, blurring the line between the living and the dead. Anchored by a cool jazz soundtrack and a cast that includes the magnetic Klaus Kinski, the film lingers in the mind long after its final frame like a half-remembered dream.
