Synopsis
In this viciously black comedy, a department store Don Juan spends his days selling ladies things they didn't know they wanted and his evenings bedding them. When a fight over a missed promotion accidentally kills his rival, a deranged, aesthetically-challenged female shop assistant helps him cover up the mess, leading to a major nightmare for him and her dream come true.

Reviews
"De la Iglesia is a mercilessly agile talent."
- M. E. Russell, Portland Oregonian
"A wicked good time."
- Eric Campos, Film Threat
"It's great fun, propelled by a terrific musical score by Roque Banos that combines the hammering doom of Bernard Herrmann, the antic jollity of Nino Rota and the urgent sprints of Lalo"
- Michael Phillips, Chicago Tribune
"Tremendously funny and entertaining."
- Luke Y. Thompson, Dallas Observer
"El Crimen Perfecto is a joyride that leaves you feeling drunk and dizzy and swearing that you haven't touched a drop."
