aka Romasanta: The Werewolf HunterOh Julian Sands, what supernatural being won't you play? In Spain in the 1850s, bodies are turning up and appear to have been killed by an animal, possibly a wolf. Traveling soap salesman Manuel Romasanto drives his wagon through the countryside and charms the people he meets, especially the ladies. But appearances can be deceiving as Romasanto believes himself a werewolf. He kills the people he charms and takes fat from his victims to make his soap. Blurghhh!
When Barbara's older sister and niece disappear after leaving with Romasanto, Barbara gradually comes to the realization they have been killed. She then begins her pursuit of Romasanto with the help of the authorities.
This isn't so much a horror film as perhaps a drama with horror overtones. It's based on a real man who claimed to be a werewolf when caught for a series of killings. The movie is story based, not action based, and if you want to see lots of werewolf, you'll be disappointed.
