Horror and sex have always gone hand in hand with each other, but rarely does a film combine these two elements so blatantly as in Fantom Kiler, a British made movie hiding behind a fake Polish identity. Reputedly made by UK horror aficionado Trevor Barley (under the pseudonym Roman Nowicki), filmed in Poland, and starring a bevy of beautiful silicone enhanced strumpets (most likely Euro-porn-stars), this film is part giallo, part soft-core porn, part misogynistic slasher and part comedy.
The Fantom Kiler of the title is a mysterious mask-wearing psycho who is stalking and carving up hot nubile women, who prefers to attack his victims in a sexually violent manner. This generally means that he likes to get them butt nekkid first, and then proceed to stick sharp objects up their 'holiest of holies'.
With more bare top-quality female flesh on display than you can shake a stick at, and plenty of nasty killings (although, surprisingly, very little in the way of graphic gore), Fantom Kiler is a pretty poor film technically, but quite entertaining for fans of sleaze and exploitation.
Shot using digital cameras on rather cheap-looking sets (swathed in coloured light and smoke to give a suitably tacky vibe), this movie is hard to find offensive since all involved are obviously having a blast making it. There are several silly 'comical' interludes which break up the intensely violent scenes (including one humdinger which offers up a bizarre twist on the legend of Excalibur) and the whole affair is so OTT that one would have to be a real stick-in-the-mud to get in a lather about it.
