Also known as: Aventuras de Felipe Malboro, volumen 8
Description: This is Jess Franco’s hipster love poem to Raymond Chandler, “Blade Runner” and cigarettes. Quoting Robert Monell by way of synopsis:
“SHIT CITY (actually, Benidorm): Felipe Marlboro, capably incarnated by Antonio Mayans (“Robert Foster”), is a seedy private investigator who takes up a missing person case at the behest of the girl friend of “Macho Jim” (Jose Llamas) in the punk infested coastal resort. The plot has Marlboro enlisting the aid of piano player Sam Chesterfield (played by Jess Franco himself) in an all out effort to bust the town’s drug and dirty money kingpin Saul Winston (Trino Trives).”
This is a step toward an ultimate upgrade of this important comic strip noir film from Franco’s 1980s period.
