Immoral Women
With their awesome powers combined, three short films form Immoral Women, a provocative and baffling film that provides audiences with the following insights into feminine psychology:- Women will murder men for fun and profit.
- Women will murder their parents and servants as a symbol of their sexual maturation.
- Women will allow their huge pet dogs to chew off the tender vittles of any man, be it a kidnapper or husband, and will watch with apathy as the pain forces them to roll into an awkward jump cut that lands them in a river, where they drown.
Good times all around in Immoral Women, now available on DVD!
