ThiefHott Too much of everything

Manthast Absolutely amazing

Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

Zbigniew_Krycsiwiki Review based on 84-minutes long UK version, titled Black Candles, which, incidentally, has nothing to do with the film itself. Chick and her husband go to London after her brother dies, and allegedly her hubby is pulled into a Satanic cult when they arrive there. I say "allegedly" because, in a dumbass plot twist at the very end, we learn that everything was all just a dream. That wafer thin plot is merely an excuse for Vanessa Hidalgo and Helga Liné to get nude as often as possible (Helga Liné, approximately 48 years old at the time, looks like she was only in her early 30s) Pick any one sex scene at random and watch that and then stop, because any one scene is probably enough of this flick. Plenty of nudity and sex, but film is rarely erotic or titillating, mostly just tiresome and slowly paced. The goat-rape scene was revolting to watch, but not the way the filmmakers intended, serving only to drive the viewers away, rather than shock them.There is a certain amount of atmospherics to some scenes, and again, the two leading girls are very attractive, but the film is very slow going, and for the most part the acting ranges from bland to awful; the music score sounds prerecorded; and the footage is often times highly washed-out, like it had been filmed through a diffuser, or two, and then underexposed also.

Woodyanders Sweet Carol (comely brunette Vanessa Hidalgo) and her amorous husband Robert (a solid performance by Mauro Ribera) travel to England after Carol's brother Paul dies suddenly. They discover an evil Satanic cult that's lead by Carol's wicked and alluring sister-in-law Fiona (ravishing redhead Helga Line of "Horror Express" and "The Vampires' Night Orgy"). Robert gets drawn into the coven. Writer/director Jose Ramon Larraz, who previously gave us the intensely erotic classic "Vampyres," delivers a tremendously tasty'n'trashy cinematic brew of raunchy sexuality and twisted perversity: we've got voyeurism, masturbation, lesbianism, plenty of copulation, sodomy and even bestiality (one gorgeous lady cult member makes love to a black billy goat!). The spooky ooga-booga throbbing rock score by Cam and Juan Marine's rough, grainy cinematography further enhance the deliciously lurid hothouse atmosphere of depraved desires and unbridled carnal passions. Line, who was 50 when she acted in this picture, looks absolutely smashing in the buff and performs her sex scenes with sizzling abandon. In the movie's nastiest scene a pathetic fat guy has a sword shoved into his anus (ouch!). Raw and ribald, this racy number sizes up as a good deal of scuzzy Eurosleaze soft-core horror exploitation fun.

Ky-D I'm not ruining anything when I inform you that you get to see a woman have sex with a goat in this movie. If that is your thing, then your movie has arrived.A woman and her husband go to see her estranged sister in the family mansion in the woods. Her sister is a creepy lady to say the least, and she seems to have interests that go beyond family love. On the side a group of unsavory characters show up and begin enacting all kinds of pagan rituals.The plotting is pretty weak and the characters are pretty dumb. The woman sticks around even after her husband starts turning into a jerk and hanging out with the pagans, even continues the have sex with him. On the exploitative side of things, there is much bared flesh and a couple of kinky couplings, but nothing that hasn't been better somewhere else. Oh, and the aforementioned goat-sex scene.Most viewers won't make it to the end. Exploitation fans will ride it out, but will be left wanting more.4/10

charlottesweb Known in the UK as Black Candles, the original Spanish title Los Ritos Sexuales del Diablo sums it up a lot better. The characters in this 1981 film from Jose Ramon Larraz spend most of the time naked and jumping on one another. Saucy German actress Helga Line, pushing 50 when the film was made, leads the way with an erotic, knicker-shedding performance as a middle-class woman at the centre of a Satanic cult. Drawing heavily on Rosemary's Baby and set in England, this is a daft piece of soft core in which the devil's work is done largely by the genitalia.
