Director Miguel Bardem spins this bizarre crime drama/sci-fi/farce about Lola Otero, who had the unfortunate happenstance to be born the ugliest woman in the world. Rejected by her parents and classmates alike, poor Lola endured getting raped and having her first boyfriend vomit after kissing her. Her fortunes change when a mad scientist transfigures her into statuesque bombshell. Though she soon enters the exalted ranks of supermodel, she is so traumatized by her troubled childhood that she takes to killing other beauties, particularly former Miss Spain winners. Matters are complicated when the glass-eyed inspector assigned to investigate the murders falls for Lola. ~ Jonathan Crow, All Movie Guide
