Gods of the Plague (1969)

Gods of the Plague (Gotter der Pest) is one of several German films directed by Rainer Werner Fassbinder under his pseudonym of Franz Walsch. That's Fassbinder, however, playing the small role of a buyer of pornography. The main story involves a pair of two-bit hoods who spend most of the film one-upping each other with a brace of scheming females. Their dreary life of crime comes to a spectacular head in a shoot-out at a supermarket. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Yes a major disappointment and even other reviews at REVIEWS state:

"The narrative is random and disposable, which means you’ll have to settle for the allure of the film’s many women."

"This wallow in fatalism is a minor but memorable crime flick."

And much of the film has already left my mind. Forgettable easily.
