A CANDLE FOR THE DEVIL (1973)

 "there are only two kinds of men: the righteous, who think they are sinners; and the sinners, who think they are righteous."

 A great little slice of Euro-horror from Spain made by Eugenio Martin, who also did the great HORROR EXPRESS.  This film concerns a couple of self-righteous religious wackos running a hotel who accidentally kill a gal they deem to be a whore because she's committing the unpardonable sin of sunbathing in a bathing suit.  Then they decide they are the avenging hand of god and go on a kill-crazy, slut-snuffing spree.  One of their victims' sisters shows up and people start getting suspicious about all these missing persons.
 Great acting, blood, boobs and great atmospheric eurotrash chills make this one worth checking out.  I'm kinda surprised that it's not better known but that might be due to it's kinda bland titles.  AKA IT HAPPENED AT NIGHTMARE INN
