El Caminannte is a witty, sexy and amoral tale of Satan amusing himself with the flaws of mankind. All of Naschy's charm is on display as he throws himself into the role of creations greatest villain with aplomb. The movie has several sequences the distinguish it from the normal Euro fare such as a clever circular narrative and dream sequence that flashes forward into the future where real B&W archvie footage of attrocity is used to convey the future dammning of man. Probably Naschy's finest movie and easily the one with most arthouse-crossover potential.

I agree, it's a very interesting and funny movie. Sort of like Teorema meets Pink Flamingos. Not my favorite Paul Naschy film, mostly because it gets sort of repetitive and there isn't much of a story, but definitely worth watching.

Agreed he had so much fun acting in this one.
