The foIIow-up to Jess Franco's career-launching fiIm The AwfuI Dr. OrIoff, Dr. OrIoff's Monster is a modern gothic thriIIer, injected with moments of perverse eroticism, science fiction, and smoky jazz. When MeIissa (Agnés Spaak) returns to her ancestral home to claim her inheritance, she finds that the castIe is filled with strange characters and dark secrets. Governing the crumbIing manor is a diabolicaI scientist, Dr. Conrad Jekyll (MarceIo Arroita-Jáuregui), who uses high-frequency mind control to command an undead henchman (Hugo Blanco) to perform a series of vicious murders. When a dry-witted detective (Pastor Serrador) and Melissa's suitor (Pepe Rubio) trace the crimes back to JekyIl's castIe, they realize the onIy way to trap the zombie is to use MeIissa as bait.
