This Spanish movie is mostly just a bunch of soft-core sex scenes interrupted occasionally by some talking about Satanism. The only really memorable scenes involve a portly fellow having a large sword shoved up his ass for knowing too much about the devil group and one that even tops that where a lady fucks a goat in a barn because that's the kind of kinky bestiality shit Satan is into. The goat-fucking scene is cut from the VHS version I have of this but if you need to see it uncut it's right there on YouTube for all the kiddies to watch. Unfortunately this isn't quite enough for me to recommend anyone else sit through this flick unless devil-praising, artsy euro-porn really turns you on.
The story goes that director Jose Ramon Larraz was trying to push the envelope in Spanish exploitation films with this after the death of Spain's leader Francisco Franco. You see Franco didn't like sex in films very much and he tried to keep things pretty clean while he was in charge. So what Larraz did here is jam-pack his film with sleazy sex and talk of the devil. I can appreciate the effort but unfortunately even the director himself didn't really like the way this film turned out since he disowned it after it was released and didn't like to talk about it. Larraz earlier on did make a pretty decent lesbian vampire flick in England called VAMPYRES which you're better off watching than this.
I just watched this. Wish I'd read your review first and saved myself the trouble. This film is a surefire cure for insomnia.
ReplyDeleteIt's not one of the better euro-sleaze Satan movies.
