Plot by Imdb: "A young girl's arrival at a convent after the death of her parents marks the beginning of a series of events that unleash an evil presence on the girl and her mysterious new friend, an enigmatic figure known as Alucarda. Demonic possession, Satan worship, and vampirism follows."
More Mexican nuns in heat !
Another nunsploitation gem that really will rock your world ! It puts back to back Satanism and Christianism. As the movie progress, the parallelism between the satanistic rituals and the catholic exorcism grows stronger. Even if the movie at the beginning feels like a cheap "Hammer studio movie", you'll be knocked out in not time by the incredible force of Moctezuma imageries and visual madness. Location of the "church-convent" is highly original: it's located in a cave, that looks more like a Gothic crypt, lightened by candles...Have no idea if it’s real but it's effective. Nothing is sacred in this movie that feels more like something done by Luis Bunuel on acid then a Mexican nunsploitation flick. "Satanico Pandemonium" is dull, compared to the insanity of Alucarda's scenes of satanic possession and rituals (lesbian orgy in blood !). Another movie that pop's in mind immediately is "Ken Russel's "The Devils", as the surreal actions of the protagonists leads us into a world of madness. Of course, this movie carries a violent anti-religious message that needs no explanation.
All hail to Satan if Satan gives us naked nuns and frightens religious zealots!
