If Ozores were ever to produce his definitive cult-classic, this would be, without any doubt, the film to pick. This film, rarely seen, and only available at midnight tv screenings was one of the weirdest one-offs of Ozores filmography.
Ozores has always wanted to make highly commercial low-budget films by following the current market trends. Thus when "They Called him Trinity" and "The Godfather" were blockbusters at their time, Ozores made "They called her The Godmother" with Lina Morgan. With "Veredicto Impacable" Ozores tried the impossible: a karate movie! Without shame, he picked the karate instructor that gave private classes at his building and a cast of "poor neighbors" who want to protect themselves from deliquency commanded by the great Jesus Puente. The result looks like if you have forced David Fincher to shoot Ordet or Jackie Chan playing Jackie Kennedy.
This film, simply, does not belong to this world. Do not miss the opportunity to watch it. The word "cult" will have a whole new meaning.
