Der Kuss des Tigers (1987)

A psychopathic killer is faced with a novel situation when his captive professes an undying affection for him in the French-German thriller Der Kuss des Tigers (1987). Former pro-boxer Stéphane Ferrara stars as Peter, a murderer who hunts young women the way tigers hunt their prey. When his gaze settles on Michèle (Beate Jensen), the killer thinks he’s got his victim right where he wants her. But the young woman is insistent about proclaiming her love for him--a twist that leaves the misanthrope confused about how to proceed. Certainly Jensen makes a strong case for live companionship--she’s relentless in showing off every sumptuous angle of her lithe German body.
