** A 1968 British film ''[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corruption_(1968_film) Corruption]]'' (starring Creator/PeterCushing) has similar premise where a surgeon tries to restore his ([[MayDecemberRomance much younger]]) fiancée's beauty by repeatedly treating her with fluids extracted from the pituitary glands of murdered female victims.
** A 1988 French film ''Film/{{Faceless}}'' has a similar plot involving beautiful women who are abducted by Dr. Flamand's female assistant and kept hostage. The doctor uses the skin of the women to perform plastic surgery on his disfigured sister, but the experiments leave the victims mutilated and dead.
** The film apparently influenced Creator/JohnWoo for ''Film/FaceOff''. Coincidentally, Woo's trademark use of white doves in his films is similar to Christiane's dove-laden escape in this film's finale.
** The film inspired the idea of a featureless mask for Michael Myers in ''Franchise/{{Halloween}}''.
