Put together from different sources of footage this actually hangs together quite well. An artist haunted by a woman one of his ancestors killed continues to murder young women and paint pictures of their corpses. It's only sixty two minutes long so it tells its story without any fuss and some of it looks excellent. Dark shadows, dark empty streets and gloomy beach scenes. There is a bleak atmosphere most of the time that is quite effective and some of it is quite creepy. The last scenes are very well done.
What does let it down is the acting. William Campbell as Antonio Sordi tries to do a tortured artist but is stiff and unconvincing. The rest of the cast are not much better though I did find the group of beatniks in the cafe talking about 'quantum' art amusing. Lori Saunders runs around in several bikinis distractingly.
It is worth seeing for the cinematography and some good macabre touches.
