LA CRUELES
(The Exquisite Cadaver)
1969, 108 min.
In Spanish with English hardsubs
"You must know that I am dying under the weight of my sorrow.
Aranda blurs the line between thriller and horror with plenty of modernist touches and a deep melancholy in LAS CRUELES, or The Exquisite Cadaver. Our protagonist, a pulp publisher straight out of a Jess Franco film, receives a package containing a human hand, a hand , beginning a descent into guilt and madness that defies a simple plot synopsis. Filled with astonishing scenes shot with a near-architectural coolness, it's a meditation on suicide, a tightly-plotted mystery and a sullen psychedelic reflection on the endless battle of the sexes. It also contains the greatest turtle funeral scene you will ever see!
