The Beasts' Carnival

Hunting Ground
6.3/10
A female lawyer passionately defends criminals, believing that everyone deserves a second chance. But her latest defendants though have no qualms about making her their next victim. They steal her car, find the keys to her country villa and decide to rob the place. Unfortunately, the lawyer's family turns up at the villa mid-burglary, and her husband is killed. But that is only the beginning of the nightmare...
Dolls for Sale
5.9/10
A crime movie directed by Jess Franco.
Silence of the Grave
5/10
The film resembles a Ten Little Indians plot, with the crew of a Western film in post-production (who are staying as guests on an island retreat) cropping up as corpses one by one after the mysterious and inexplicable kidnapping of a child. The film plays up its traditional mystery angle, with each of the guests being as likely a suspect as the next, in scenes such as one in which all of the guests sit around in the parlor and cast dramatic, accusatory glances at one another.
La Carmen
5.7/10
A young ex-seminarian named José is doing his military service in Córdoba. There he meets Carmen, a beautiful flamenco dancer who falls madly in love, to the point that he steals to get money for her, so he will be imprisoned. José does not support the separation and, when he is driven by the Civil Guard on a train, he runs off by jumping out the window. He then left for Madrid in search of Carmen, who now lives in the company of his uncle, the lame, master of dancers. The woman welcomes José coldly, although they engage in a strange and tense relationship behind the back of El Morao, her former pimp, who lives with her again (jsanchez, IMDb).
