Honeymoon Killers

Martha Beck (Shirley Stoler) is sullen, overweight, and lonely. Desperate for affection, she joins Aunt Carrie’s Friendship Club and strikes up a correspondence with Ray Fernandez (Tony Lo Bianco), a charismatic smooth talker who could be the man of her dreams—or a degenerate con artist.

One of the legendary one and done directorial efforts, Leonard Kastle would replace no other than Martin Scorsese to helm this based-on-a-true-story serial killer romance. An unvarnished blend of documentary style, ripped-from-the-headlines realism and classic exploitation sensibilities, it’s not to be missed.
