Satanico.Pandemonium - Gilberto Martínez Solares - Mexico - (1975)


 


Plot from Imdb: "A young nun is tempted by visions of forbidden sexual fantasies to cross over to Satan."

Whoa ! What a great movie ! Much more subtle than I thought. This is a real classic nunsploitation movie. The mexican cast is perfect, and the sets are really insanely beautiful. It feels odd, realistic and theatrical at the same time. Strangely enough, you can relate to the character without any problem, as the opposition between life, with its lavish sensuality and temptations, and religious abstract auto-discipline deepens. There are quite a few shocking scene, like the killing, or the first hallucinations. Or are they ? The movie does great at bluring the line between reality and fantasy. Love the "Lucifer" character. The actor has a "Martin Landau" quality, in his face. Highly recommended movie. A classic. It's even better watching it during a pagan orgy.

Bu wen nu xue tang aka Screwball '94 - Otto Chan - HK - (1994)

 


Plot: "A ghost comes back from purgatory to help out a young & horny college boy, in order to redeem his karma."

CAT III from HK, but nothing interesting here. It's Porky's, redux HK style. Lousy popular Chinese humor and some magic. Hopefully, there is some nudity to lift a little this movie that really feels like a poor attempt to copy the teenager's comedy flick from the US. Enjoy the sex and the silliness of it all !



  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  

No trailer, sorry....


Succubare - HK - (1981)



Plot from Imdb: "A Chinese village run by beautiful women turns out to be more than the local men bargained for--especially if they have any idea of seducing the local beauties, then running out on them."

Nasty mondo-like movie from the golden area of HK weirdness, the 80's. The story of the 3 princesses - black magic priestesses is laughable. The mondo insertions - mostly an old villager eating almost anything alive, crawling, swimming or running - are gross, of course. But not so much that it is noticeable. But the costumes are great. I'd like to know from where region are those traditional costumes from: they look more like Indonesian  than Chinese. The rest is not very interesting. My main problem with this movie is that there is WAY too much snakes in it. It's like every scene of possession is plastered with inserts of live snakes...it's really lame. One funny detail: one of the cast main character is Carter Wong, who is not an unknown as he appears also in "John Carpenter's Big trouble in Little China" as one of the three magic warriors, Thunder !!
