Featured reviews
Completely forgettable film: extremely bad sound effects from creaking drawers, footsteps, etc. Added to this are all too funny noises from Werner Pochath, who admittedly acts okay. Stay away, nonsense.
"Mosquito the Rapist" is a gross,creepy and disturbing horror film that truly has to be seen to be believed.This strange necrophilia shocker offers few haunting moments and contains truly eerie mood throughout.Werner Pochath plays a nameless deaf mute accountant,who is still recovering from horrific child abuse.He has a weird fixation with blood spilling across his skin.One night he breaks into the local mortuary and ravages really pretty female corpse.Now addicted,he raids the tombs of the dead and drinks blood from their throats via a glass straw.This seriously twisted and perverse piece of sleazy horror was apparently a major influence on Jorg Buttgereit's "Nekromantik".There is some gore and plenty of sleaze,so fans of exploitation cinema won't be disappointed.Unfortunately this obscure gem is rather hard to find,but if you get a chance watch it.9 out of 10.
Abused clerk with a doll fetish tries to cope with memories of his abusive father develops a weird fascination for drinking the blood from corpses before amping it up toward murder.
Disturbing, but in many ways not very good little horror film that is more than likely going to curl your toes. As with many of these films its the acts that disturb but not the whole package, since our "hero" is too crazy and too much of a milk toast to amount to much. And give it points for a non sensational, realistic ending.
Worth a look only for horror fans.

This movie was very interesting and bizarre in the first half, but the second half was pretty boring and anticlimatic. The conclusion to this was not impressive at all. It is pretty unique and disturbing though. The acting was decent, the soundtrack was nice and overall this wasn't a bad movie. Mosquito the Rapist is very perverse and weird, and it has a few scenes of gore (not very brutal gore,though). I would recommend this to fans of exploitation cinema and to people who are looking for obscure and old horror films.
"Mosquito" is one of the most original horror films from the seventies. Quite possibly the most disturbing romantic horror film you'll come across from this period.
Loosely based on a real case, this film deals with a traumatized young man (Werner Pochath), who in his childhood became deaf and dumb after having been beaten by his own father. Excluded from close human contact, he seeks company in the local graveyard. Still, he has secret feelings for the girl (Birgit Zamulo) next door, who also seems to live inside her own different world.
With gorgeous photography, an "out of this world" soundtrack by maestro Dafydd Llywelyn, and exceptional acting by Werner Pochath - this is a film to remember. Still, we need a better commercial release of it, than what's out on the market (the German DVD was OK, but could have been a lot better, and it's out of print anyway).
