Jean Rollin directs Jean-Marie Lemaire, Franca Maï and Brigitte Lahaie in this erotic French horror where a thief finds himself hiding out in an chateau with two untrustworthy nymphets.

A crumb more accessible than The Iron Rose. This houses a tangible mystery plot, villains (well, they’re all villains really) and some simplistic but convincing period details. The sex and death all feels quite wholesome, healthy. Has that iconic poster shot of a skimpy clad beauty coming at you with a scythe.
