The Honeymoon Killers (1970)

Dir. Leonard Kastle, Donald Volkman
In this film based on the real-life Lonely Hearts murders of the late 1940s, handsome lothario Ray Fernandez (Tony LoBianco) cons lonely women out of money by promising marriage. When he meets nurse Martha Beck (Shirley Stoler), the two fall in love. Posing as brother and sister, the duo cross the country swindling needy women -- and, when necessary, killing them. As their passions become more inflamed, their crime spree grows bloodier.
