The Immortal Sins Of Jess Franco
Cult icon Jesus Franco has left us at age 82. I want to write more about how this delightfully strange man's delightfully strange films had a surprising effect on me. For now enjoy some trailers to some films that we will not see the like of ever again, and being Franco most are NSFW.
And it seems only right to end on a nightclub scene, I hope you're unsettling and arousing moviegoers in the afterlife with equal gusto good sir.
