Though recently released from the loony bin, The Mad Butcher Otto Lehman (Victor Buono) is still seriously unhinged. With a healthy appetite for good meat and pretty women, Otto resumes his profession as “the best butcher in Vienna” while obsessing over Berta, a sexy neighbor who loves undressing in front of her window.
