Susan Landau, active from 1969 to 1974, made her mark in the world of adult cinema with a series of provocative performances. In The Kiss of Her Flesh (1968), she captivates audiences with her bold presence, while her role in Submission (1969) further solidifies her status in the genre. Landau also appears in The Ultimate Degenerate (1969) and The Amazing Transplant (1970), where her performances contribute to the exploration of erotic themes in cult cinema. Her work remains a defining element of the era's underground film scene.
The Amazing Transplant
Arthur (Juan Fernandez) visits Mary (Sandy Eden) to profess his love and propose to her. But when he notices her earrings, he begins to rape her and winds up choking her to death. His mother (Linda Southern) is worried and asks her police detective brother-in-law Bill (Larry Hunter) to help find him. Meanwhile, Mary has been found dead, the police suspect Arthur and the radio informs the public about the apparent murder. In the course of his investigation, Bill finds several women who tell of Arthur's surprising rapes (since he seems an otherwise pleasant guy) while they are graphically shown in flashbacks. Each one has a different character: One is a violent rape scene, one victim (a highschool acquaintance) turns the rape into lovemaking, another (lesbian) victim is so repelled that she vomits afterwards. Only the viewer gets to see the connection however, the glistening earrings each victim wears, and which set Arthur off. The story finally is explained to Bill by Dr. Meade (Bernard Marcel) who a couple of months ago performed a penis transplant on Arthur which may have also transplanted the former womanizing owner's fondness of golden earrings.
