Tenderness of the Wolves (1973)

Starring: Jyrt Raab
Director: Ulli Lommel

Premise:
A gay serial killer of teenage boys in 1920's Germany likes to drink their blood and sell the meat on the market. The police set a trap to catch the maniac.

My Take:
While the subject matter is quite disturbing, as well as more than a few scenes, it is never done in an exploitative way. Still it is a tough movie to set through until the end and one left this viewer with little satisfaction.

Rating: In the middle

Watched: Shudder
