A millionaire playboy flies around Acapulco in his private helicopter to pick up sexy young women. He whisks them away to his secluded old castle, where he wines and dines them. With the aid of his helper Gorgo, he kills his dates, keeping their heads in a crystal cage and feeding their chopped up body parts to his 1,000-strong army of blood thirty, flesh hungry cats. (Prime Video)

Someone shot some footage and then edited it into something. The subject matter has something to it, as it is likably bizarre and some viewers may even see it as a critique of capitalism (the protagonist’s machismo and his roots in a rich family give him a sense of superiority, while other people are just objects for him to play with). But in terms of directing, it’s a straight-up B-movie and the editing is almost Ed Woodian. Like the cuts to the titular amphibians jumping in the grass in the horror movie Frogs, shots of hundreds of meowing cats in a large cage are edited into the plot wherever possible, even when the main character is flying a helicopter or his sexy prey is lying by a swimming pool. However, the filmmakers’ goofy and in some ways creative fantasies combined with the trashy poetics make this an entertaining and rather unpredictable obscurity that could have been an exemplary exploitation flick if it had contained some sex scenes, grittier murders (not just strangulation) and gore (dismembering victims before feeding them to the cats).
