Cenas Mortais

What you'd expect if watching the trailer, or judging the cover. Voyeuristic nutter, and we find out a bit, how he ended up like this, through flashbacks, and flashes. Speaking of flashers, a few hotties, on the pretext, of becoming the next big thing, model wise, are lured by advertisement, to the strangling quarters of Atkin's warehouse/photography strudio. As getting them to strip and dance erotically, he then puts em' out, and ties and gags them, then, yes, you guessed it.... lets them watch themselves die. Interesting idea, and some nice blood splattering, some heart, and a not half bad Atkins, makes it a nice entertainer. Oh yeah, get this, after taping the victims, they make their way to an underground minority clientele of a video store, run by a perveted pig of a clerk, void of a conscious. Thomerson as a detective working the serial killer, is so type cast, I'm sure, he'd rather be somewhere else, as so is his partner. Can't shake off being a low brow film, due to it's content, simple story, and repellent themes. Just adds up to a below average drama/thriller, heralded by a sometimes farcical, overacting Atkins.
