The wrestler Guillermo Santa (Wolf Ruvinskis) and Comandante Robles (Crox Alvarado), the latter disguised as 'El Vampiro', team up to capture the mad Dr Ogden (Carlos Riquelme) who is transplanting animal brains into kidnapped athletes and corpses in an attempt to prolong human life. When Santa is killed and his brain replaced with that of a gorilla, he is transformed into an ugly ape monster. This movie mixes the Frankenstein story with that a classic expressionist mad-doctor atmosphere and shot in a deliriously romantic style. The final result is a bizarre and charming picture. Edited and widely acclaimed in Italy as 'Ladri di Cadaveri' (Corpses' thefts).
