rating: 3 QuoteErotic HorrorQuote
I grew up with horror, and a lot of why I liked it was the sex and violence. This one features some of the best girl on girl scenes in a regular movie with full tongue kisses and some sucking. Not really a guilty pleasure but definately devoid of very much technical merit like most films of its kind, but it does include realistic black magic rituals. But it should've had Linda Blair nude. All in all, an enjoyable erotic horror film. June 20, 2005

A quaint little film which crosses the erotic and the horror genres quite nicely, with very attractive young ladies, inclusive of a beautified Linda Blair, who plays the part of a Black Witch set on possessing the man of her desires, and not surprisingly, she does ultimately get what she wants. She has an elaborate Ritual Chambre inclusive of a huge red Pentagram with a demonic statue reminiscent of Pazuzu placed appropriately in its center configuration. Additionally to being quite a seductress, she is also a veritable puppet-master, speaking her will before the demonic altar, and her helpless subjects are powerless to refuse, despite the pedantic efforts attempted by erstwhile "white witches", who fail redundantly. It is certainly delightful to view the disrobed buxom bodies intermingled with scenes of the dark Sorceries transpiring. Sex and Satan are always a wonderful combination. And viewing the credits carefully, tongue 'n' cheek, one will eventually notice that the "Occult Adviser" is none other than "Abdul Alhazred" {the primary Arabian character from the book 'Necronomicon' by "Simon" / H.P. Lovecraft}. The expected demoralization occurs at the conclusion of the presentation, but there is a surprising and pleasing turn of events calling to mind the finale in The Devil's Rain.

Rating: 3/5 Black Candles 'round The Pentagram. Recommended as a rental. May 17, 2004

rating: 2 QuoteAn OK direct to video Erotic ThrillerQuote
This direct to video Erotic thriller is a OK thriller.There's a couple of nude scenes done by the main star(the boyish hairy Larry Poindexter) and a few women.If you like to watch these kinds of DVD's buy this DVD.Be prepared for a ton of plot holes.The only problems I have with this DVD is it's pan/scan,no trailers and no captions. Even though this stuff is not on the DVD,it's a great transfer. if you can handle "black bars" on the side of your TV,instead of the side.buy this DVD.

I'd doubt you can find this DVD for rent/to buy at a local video store.Buy it for the nudity and the OK story....Somewhere in this movie is the producer,has anyone spotted him yet? August 11, 2001

Low Budget Thriller Is Saved By Novel Plot Twists...Julie Strain Plays The Wife Of An Up-And-Comming Executive Who Gets Rid Of Her Husband's Competition...She Makes A Fatal Mistake When She Attempts To Kill His Main Rival, Not Realizing That The Man's Wife Is A Witch...It's Nice To See A Movie Where The Characters Get Just What They Deserve...Starring Julie Strain, Linda Blair, Edward Albert, Larry Poindexter...

This movie does not seem to know if it wants to be a horror story or softcore porn. It does neither very well. February 25, 2000
