A lurid, atmospheric 1930s horror-mystery built on grotesque pseudoscience and serial abduction, driven by period atmosphere and visceral dread rather than psychological depth.

In 19th century Paris, a maniac abducts young women and injects them with ape blood in an attempt to prove ape-human kinship but constantly meets failure as the abducted women die.
