The Swamp of the Ravens (1974 Spain)
A doctor who has been banished from his hospital for crossing both
moral and scientific barriers decides to strike out on his own and
continue with his experiments. Except there is no Gothic castle here.
Instead his laboratory is located in a shack surrounded by a swamp
filled with the doctors used cadavers - which may be why all those
ravens are hanging around it. There are some grisly sequences including
what looks like a genuine autopsy - not stock footage but instead one
which seems to have been performed especially for this film, with the
actors present. Add some hazy performances, atrocious dubbing, a couple
lepors, and a semi sadistic romance with just a touch of necrophilia -
and presto! You have a crowd pleasing 1970's Euro Sleaze Extravaganza!
