This film combines two very different styles: an atmospheric psycho thriller about the ice-cold hired gun (masterfully played by Frank Gorschin), and the bizarre satire of the Austrian TV serial "Kottan ermittelt".
Acting
Frank Gorshin's ice-cold hitman energy vs. Austrian sitcom chaos—unhinged brilliance.
Direction
Patzak stitches two incompatible genres into something genuinely unclassifiable.
Director
Peter Patzak
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The 'Kottan ermittelt' segments parody a real Austrian police sitcom beloved for its deadpan absurdity—imagine if Tarantino crashed 'The Office'.
Gorshin took this between 'The Riddler' revivals; he reportedly loved the script's sheer strangeness.
