Drama, Mystery, Romance
Arabella (Tini Cansino) is a nymphomaniac with insatiable desires that her husband Francesco (Francesco Casale), a crippled writer, cannot satisfy. After being caught having sex with a stranger, Arabella panics and kills her lover, only to discover that her homicidal act has sparked Francesco's creative juices. Instead of being angry, he encourages her to continue her dalliances as long as he can use her homicidal exploits for more literary inspiration.
Directed by poliziotteschi director Stelvio Massi under the pseudonym Max Steel, ARABELLA: BLACK ANGEL “provides a wild ride that can still raise an eyebrow or two” while “doling out kinky twists aplenty” (Mondo Digital).
