Ewa Strömberg (SHE KILLED IN ECSTASY), Dennis Price (THEATRE OF BLOOD), Paul Muller (COUNT DRACULA) and the director himself co-star.

SHE KILLED IN ECSTASY
For his follow-up to VAMPYROS LESBOS, writer/director Jess Franco delivered the “hallucinatory descent into erotic insanity” (Mondo Digital) that remains his most perversely iconic shocker of the 1970s. In her greatest role – and one of her final performances before her tragic death – the exquisite Soledad Miranda stars as a vengeful widow who seduces and murders the men and women responsible for her husband’s suicide.
Howard Vernon (THE AWFUL DR. ORLOF), Paul Muller (LADY FRANKENSTEIN), Ewa Strömberg (VAMPYROS LESBOS) and Franco himself co-star in this Euro Cult masterwork.
The brand-new release includes an archival interview with Uncle Jess, an all-new instalment of In the Land of Franco and more. Please see full list below.
