Joachim is an impotent man who who secretly films his friend Stathis having sex with girls from the Tango Club. When Stathis kills the lesbian that he catches with his girlfriend, the death is caught on film. Necrophilia soon follows.
Very watchable, although I was slightly confused at first, as my copy was seemingly Greek with English subtitles but everyone was speaking Spanish. It turns out this must be a Spanish dub because it is certainly Greek. Very much borderline giallo, it is nevertheless, fast moving and most colourful with some wonderful costumes. Lakis Komninos is fine as the lead rogue and the girls are good, in and out of their costumes, just the supposed hero, played by Vagelis Voulgaridis who plays it just too pathetically, for my taste. Excellent soundtrack, sex and death (not always in that order), some fun dance sequences (didn't notice any 'tango' though) and drugs and voyeurism a plenty. Bit predictable but good fun all the same.
