The Pink Pussy (Where Sin Lives)


1h 10m 1966

Brief Synopsis

Exotic dancer Mara Doran signs a contract in New York to entertain at The Pink Pussy in Caracas, Venezuela, unaware that the contract is phony and that no hotel reservation has been made for her. In Caracas, her passport and money are stolen, and she is abducted and raped. Alex, in reality a Caracas vice lord who has engineered the fraud, comes to her "rescue," takes her to his hotel, and gets her the job at The Pink Pussy. At the club, Mara meets and falls in love with Ernest, another entertainer. Alex becomes annoyed and fires Ernest. Elvira, Alex's drug-addicted girl friend, is jealous of Mara and calls her to tell her who he really is--a vice lord who lures women to Caracas, drugs them, and forces them into white slavery. Mara is kidnaped by Alex's henchmen, but Ernest, realizing the danger she is in, rescues her. During a fight in a cable car high above the city, Alex and his henchmen nearly triumph over Ernest and Mara, but Elvira arrives and kills Alex.
