Paul Naschy is back! And this time he’s out for vengeance!
Making its worldwide disc debut, it’s …
NIGHT OF THE EXECUTIONER (1992)
Dr. Hugo Arranz (Paul Naschy) is commemorating his 50th
birthday with his wife and daughter. As the celebrations reach their height,
the family are terrorized by a gang of violent street thugs who have broken
into their home. Initially the gang are after jewels and cash. But once they
have their helpless victims tied up and defenseless, their thoughts turn to
violence. They rape Arranz’s wife and daughter and then, annoyed by the
doctor’s protests, they cut out his tongue and leave him for dead.
Arranz survives the attack and recovers after a stay in
hospital. Abandoning his medical practice, he seeks vengeance on the men and
women who destroyed his life. He embarks on a strenuous course of physical
training, involving knives, guns and punishing bouts of weight lifting.
Finally, he is ready to go in pursuit of his prey. But to track them down, he
must enter the sleazy underworld which his potential victims inhabit. In the
process, Dr. Arranz begins to learn much, not only about his targets but also
about himself.
NIGHT OF THE EXECUTIONER was Paul Naschy’s last complete
film as writer/director/ actor. It’s a shocking and thrilling ride into the
dark underbelly of the city and a true tribute to its star’s ability to craft
exciting and thought provoking entertainment.
