Directed by Joe D'Amato
My rating: 2.5 stars out of 4
IMDb
(DVD, Legend House)
Dreamlike film centered around the beautiful Ewa Aulin's return from the dead. After a horse carriage accident, Ewa is taken in by local aristocrats for recovery. She can't remember who she is or how she got there. Husband and wife take turns seducing her, but the wife gets jealous and walls her up in the basement. It doesn't matter because Ewa shows up again later in the film. Meanwhile, mad doctor Klaus Kinski is experimenting in his laboratory with a liquid that will make him immortal and Ewa holds the key. The gore is not particularly well done and seems unnecessary and the plot frequently makes no sense, but the soundtrack is good and there is a peculiar hypnotic quality to the proceedings that make it difficult to ignore. David Lynch fans take note!
