Trio Infernal (1974, Germany)
3 Folds Digipack.
This French production, directed by Francis Girod, and originally released in 1974 (in the USA and UK with the title "The Infernal Trio") is set in post-WWI France. A successful attorney and war hero, along with two his lovers, (two German sisters) Philomene and Catherine, defraud life insurance companies by signing policies for dying people. Given their success, they become bolder and bolder and even resort to the murder of a rich pawnbroker Noemie and her lover, Chambon. They get rid of the bodies by melting them down with sulfuric acid. Their final heist, however, has a fatal ending for Catherine, but Philomene and George are now filthy rich after cashing in five life insurance policies on Catherine's death.
