Title: A thriller featuring *ahem* unique roses.
Post by: The Locust on May 02, 2007, 04:39:17 PM
This was a movie I believe that was on HBO or possibly Cinemax.  I remember there was a doctor, or some sort of scientist and he had cultivated a breed of roses that smelled like, (and I'm  pretty sure I remember this quote) "..The open lips of the vagina"  He was showing them to a girl (i'm pretty sure the heroine) and I believe he was the killer at the end. Possibly soft-core.


Title: Blood Rose (1969)

 :smile: Hi The Locust.

I checked around and what I came up with was a 1969 horror / sex thriller called Blood Rose, a French production. I must admit I haven't seen it, but this could be the film you're looking for.

The IMDB listing is www.imdb.com/title/tt0064902 (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0064902)  :teddyr:

Dave covered "The Blood Rose" in his musings and ramblings, so I emailed him and asked if he could confirm or deny the identification:

Was he using the roses to kill people with? Or was that his profiling signature?  "My God, detective, did you take a whiff of that rose he left by the corpse?"

BTW there is a real rose you can buy caled "Cardinal Hume" that smells exactly like a dead fish.

I just scanned through my copy of THE BLOOD ROSE, and this is definitely not the movie.  There is no point where I saw a man showing a rose to a girl in this one.  It also strikes me as rather unlikely that HBO or Cinemax would run an almost forgotten sleazy dubbed French film from the late sixties.

was this man kind of gardener? did he plant variety of flowers and other plants and took part in some flower exibitions/competitions? and he was killing women and somehow "transfer" them into flowers?
i dont remember this cited sentence, but it resembles me one movie - i can't remember title now, but if it's good trail, i'll dig deeper into my memory
