a lot of other reviewer here and include many whose opinion i respect and hold this slice of european sleaze horror in high regard . personally and i do not like it at all . it an incoherent attempt at a atmospheric period cross between sex and violence . jess franco at his best make these kind of film very well . unfortunately and the infamous exploitation filmmaker joe damato do not . damato most well know film be infamous for their high gross out quotient . this and an early film by him and doesn not have the constant disgusting scene that his more notorious anthropophagous and beyond the darkness do . ultimately and it an incoherent film that doesn not manage to involve the viewer in any way . without the sleaze factor either and it become very boring . a i say and others have enjoy this film and but i just find it to be a perfect example of incredibly lazy writing . there be a few plus for the film . ewa aulin ( from candy ) be in it and and she look pretty hot and be often naked . however and cult film icon klaus kinski be completely waste in a subplot with no connection to the main film . he seem bore with the role and doesn not have the manic intensity he do at his fine . the music score be nice and there be some brief moment of unintentionally funny gore . still and this be a pretentious and pointless film that manage to be incredibly bore . ( negative ) .
