It looks like I am the first to write a review for Un largo viaje hacia la muerte, or A Long Journey Toward Death (the subtitled title). The version I saw was about twenty minutes shorter than the running time listed here, so I am not giving the film a star rating. What I can say is that I was not impressed by what I saw.
Juan is a happily married man who carries scars from a mental illness and the shock treatments that followed. Someone in the town is murdering nurses. Is it Juan? He seems suspicious, being a sculptor, suffering from nightmares, and having a job making creepy looking dolls for children. Meanwhile, Juan's former doctor keeps trying to convince Juan to come in for a visit, but Juan keeps coming up with excuses. The doctor's girlfriend is a nurse and a potential victim.
A Long Journey Towards Death doesn't stand out from other psychological horror films of the period. The film boasts some nice imagery in dream scenes (judges in ropes and whigs carrying a coffin for instance), but this is not really enough. The film is somewhat predictable, and the ending was weak.
Again, I saw a version missing about twenty minutes. Maybe I would have liked the full version more, but I rather doubt it.
