CGiii Comment

Oh Eloy...you really were a bad [but, productive] filmmaker.

After a promising start in an abattoir and, this dissolves - without a fizz - into nothing.

It's not helped by some truly terrible dubbing -  which renders this almost unwatchable.

Perhaps, in the original language, it may be tolerable.
