Da er den Tod seiner geliebten Anna nicht verkraftet, gräbt Präparator Frank seine kürzlich Verblichene kurzerhand wieder aus, um ihren Körper zu konservieren. Das bleibt nicht unbemerkt – doch alle, die hinter Franks Geheimnis kommen, werden von ihm und seiner bösartigen Haushälterin Iris beseitigt. Sado besticht nicht nur seines prägnanten deutschen Titels wegen, sondern auch durch hemmungslosen Exzess, der »an Sadismus und Zynismus kaum zu übertreffen« ist (Filmdienst) – Stichwörter: Fingernägel, Säurebad und – als kulinarisches Highlight – das »Gulasch«. Dabei ist Sado im Kern eine höchst morbid-romantische Amour fou zu den Klängen der Argento-Hausband Goblin. (Florian Widegger)
Joe D'Amato (Aristide Massaccesi)
is considered one of the most controversial and obscure figures in Italian genre cinema. Born in 1936 as Aristide Massaccesi, he started out as a set electrician and became a sought-after cinematographer. Reluctant to use his real name early on in his directing career, he used countless aliases like Dick Spitfire, Oskar Faradine, or Michael Wotruba. Working in various genres and constantly seeking the aesthetics of the extreme, one of his earlier works is the gothic horror movie Death Smiles on a Murderer. He first used the name Joe D’Amato to make softcore films, directing Laura Gemser in Emanuelle in America, Emanuelle and the Last Cannibals (both 1977), and other works. Beyond the Darkness was his first foray into the gore genre, followed by Man Eater. During the 1980s and 1990s, D’Amato directed over 100 hardcore porn movies. He unexpectedly died in 1999.
