From the liner notes

Mixing startling visuals with complex female characterizations and a penchant for grim subject matter served up in Lynchian brew of perverse sexuality, violence, psychoses and death, the films of Tony Marsiglia have the power to arouse, disturb and overwhelm. Previous Marsiglia films include the sleazy and sizzling erotic shockers Lust for Dracula, Chantal, Sinful, Sin Sisters and Dr. Jekyll and Mistress Hyde – all starring doe-eyed sexploitation slut Misty Mundae.

With Suzie Heartless, Marsiglia delivers his bleakest and most relentlessly disturbing and depraved film yet. It tells the dark and harrowing story of the last days in the life of a terrified teenage prostitute. Brutalized, raped and fending off the pains of starvation, Suzie finds her only solace in the quiet home she has created in the derelict basement of a textile warehouse. Haunted by a mysterious young girl, Suzie searches the streets of Los Angeles for her missing family in hopes that she'll be able to recapture the beauty of her lost childhood before succumbing to the misery and violence of reality… and dying like a rat in the gutter.

Marsiglia's first feature film, Phoenix, reveals the story of the daughter of an extremely dysfunctional family. Her crossing paths with a reclusive morgue attendant leads to tragedy, murder and perverse passion. This most unlikely of love stories unfolds as the two battle freakishly grotesque parents, satanic vamps, slimy-minded perverts and a sister that will never die.
