[edit] Synopsis
Carpathia, 1851: Elvira and her maidservant Zou Zou (Mary Jo Smith), on their way to a can-can revue in Paris, get kicked out of an inn for a slight monetary discrepancy, she is rescued by a local who takes her to stay at the castle in the hills high above the village. The fact that she happens to resemble the count's (Richard O'Brien) former "missing" wife opens a can of worms or two.
