So Jess Franco's original DR. ORLOF(minus one of the F's for some reason) film was way back in '62. Then he followed it up 2 years later with DR. ORLOFF'S MONSTER and 6 years later someone else directed ORLOFF AGAINST THE INVISIBLE MAN. None of these movies really had anything to do with each other besides reusing the Orloff name. In following with that grand tradition this one also has nothing to do with any of the previous Orloff outings and here features a doctor, played by William Berger, who is hypnotizing(with his sinister eyes and drug injections!) a poor helpless crippled girl and making her carry out some murders so he can get revenge(and a big inheritance!). The DVD I own of this has some shitty subtitles that intermittently turn on and off so I may have missed some of the finer points of the plot. Luckily this plot doesn't seem very intricate. A weirdly nudity-free movie from Uncle Jess and Lina Romay only has a small role as the girlfriend of folk singer Sweet Davey Brown. Pretty lightweight stuff that will probably be disappointing to the more discriminating sleazehounds out there.
