“A bright, gaudy and tremendously satisfying ride” – New York Times
“The Spanish have been masters of sly black comedy and The Ferpect Crime is a splendid example” – Los Angeles Times
“The Ferpect Crime has energy, colour, spirit and
lively performances” – Chicago Sun-Times
Álex de la Iglesia (Commonwealth, Day of the Beast) is at his satiric best with this savagely witty black comedy about seduction, murder, revenge and the cruelest of all punishments, commitment. Suave playboy Rafael (Guillermo Toledo) works in the women’s clothing section of a department store, a fertile area for his seductions. When an argument with a coworker turns deadly and a body needs to be disposed of quickly, homely (and that’s being kind) secret admirer Lourdes (Mónica Cervera, 20 Centimetres) promptly jumps in to help, but her assistance has a steep price. Cervera is a delight as the scheming cleaner out to capture her Mr Right and Toledo is unforgettable as the cocky and then terrified object of her lust. An outrageously dark comic delight!
