A news voiceover explains that Anna Fritz, a world renowned actress, has died.  Her body has been taken to an unspecified hospital to avoid a mob scene.  The orderly rolls the gurney into the morgue, gingerly peels pack the sheet to reveal a beautiful woman, and snaps a picture with his cell phone.  It gets worse from there.<\/p>\n<p>In an American movie called The Body, three chicks accidentally kill a dude.  Oops. To avoid getting in trouble, they posthumously stage a rape so they can claim self-defense.  But that doesn&#8217;t work out so well when they discover they didn&#8217;t actually kill the dude, but just broke his neck. Awkward. The Body <a href=\"http:\/\/www.quartertothree.com\/fp\/2015\/12\/11\/worst-thing-youll-see-all-week-body\/\">falls apart<\/a> mainly because of the implausibility of its characters&#8217; motivations and a conspicuous weak link in the cast.<\/p>\n<p>The Corpse of Anna Fritz, a fascinating inverse of The Body, has no such shortcomings.  The characters do what they do because they&#8217;re reprehensible.  Spanish writer\/director Hector Vincens isn&#8217;t interested in our sympathy.  He&#8217;s just interested in subjecting us to his cruel thriller, setting the stage with one of the most ghastly reveals since Jack Nicholson&#8217;s tryst in room 237.  It gets a bit clumsy from there, with lots of flopping around on the floor.  But that scene &#8212; you&#8217;ll know it &#8212; easily sustains The Corpse of Anna Fritz until graves are spit on.<\/p>\n<p>By the way, you know how you can hear outlandish things when you hear someone sing in a different language?  Without the distinctive patter of that language, your brain translates the syllables into English.  To my ears, it sounded like the song playing over the credits was &#8220;Cats Know Everything&#8221;.  Ha ha.  I must be mishearing a Spanish phrase.<\/p>\n<p>Nope.  The end credits song is in English and it&#8217;s called &#8220;Cats Know Everything&#8221;.  Corpse of Anna Fritz: 2. Me: 0.<\/p>\n<p>The Corpse of Anna Fritz is available exclusively on flixfling.com, whatever that is, starting March 8.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Corpse of Anna Fritz opens with a shot of an unseen orderly wheeling a sheet-draped corpse down a corridor.
