(87 minutes version)
An elderly woman meets a professional killer and asks him to kill her. She soon finds other people interested in the same kind of service.
This film apparently couldn't make up its mind on whether it's a reflection on euthanasia or just a madcap black comedy. I'm afraid it isn't very good as either, but it's eventful enough that it rarely becomes truly annoying. It is reported that a better version than the one I have seen exists, and that it was put together by the film's screenwriter. The notion of a suicide club is not an original one; Robert Louis Stevenson wrote a book comprised of three short stories around that same idea ("The Suicide Club", 1878).
Rating: 34
