The Nightcomers. 1971. Groundskeeper at a secluded estate Peter Quint has a strong hold over two children Miles and Flora and governess Miss Jessel. Somewhat prequel to the story The Turn Of The Shrew, this focuses on Peter Quint who seems quite mild and loving round the children but also has a dark sinister side. Marlon Brando plays Irishman Quint who seems to enjoy a bit of BDSM with Stephanie Beacham who plays the governess. Director Michael Winner does try to add the element of gothic to the story and a form of witchcraft which does seem to blend in well in some parts but was a bit surprised with the downfall of Quint on how that was portrayed, it does have the elements of being a psychological horror rather than point horror.

unnamedgg.jpg BARBARELLA (1968) Great fun movie. Jane Fonda looks awesome in the various costumes she wears throughout the movie. This was Fonda's 'sex kitten' era and she looks fantastic. A bit of nudity, sex references, comedy, low budget effects and groovy soundrack, the film has become a cult classic.The movie is also pretty fathful to it's comic strip origins. |

The Nun And The Devil. 1973. A young girl is sent to a convent to prevent her from seeing her lover, two nuns are eager to become the new abyss while witch finding occurs in the area. This is a so called nun-exploitation, one allows her lover to come in and have a rendezvous in the grounds, one nun who is told by another she can be the next mother superior by her lesbian companion and all the medievii torture devices even though a nun is totally stripped naked. This is like wealth and politics rolled into one with who has the wealth to bribe someone for the top post and accuse the others of being possessed and being a witch, this isn't like behind convent walls more towards Flavia, the plot around the film is interesting and entertaining to some but may not be everyone's cuppa. 97703077-c488-4c1d-af60-d7b4e6f79f5e.jpg
