638 Ways to Kill Castro tells the story of some of the numerous attempts to kill Cuba’s leader Fidel Castro.
The film reveals multiple methods of assassination, from exploding cigars to femme fatales a radio station rigged with noxious gas to a poison syringe posing as an innocuous ballpoint pen. The former head of Cuban Intelligence alleges that there were over 600 plots dreamt up to end the life of the “red menace”.
On the trail of Castros would-be killers, the filmmakers meet a series of would-be assassinsseveral are also accused terrorists, still living in America. All these men, the film reveals, were supported and funded by the United States. At one point, staggeringly, the CIA even sought the help of the Mafia in the hope they would be able to succeed where so many others had failed.
The sub-text of the film is a comment on the contemporary War on Terrorism – acknowledged terrorists who have made common cause with the CIA in the past live happily in the United States, but individuals with often very sketchy connections with latter-day terrorism have ended up incarcerated without trial at Guantanamo Bay.
