The witch
|
The patriarch of a wealthy family fears that he will show up one day in vampire form. Should this happen, he warns his family not to let him back in his house, no matter how much he begs them.
"Night of the Devils" is a rare Italian adaptation of the Tolstoy story "Lu Famille du Wurdulak" made by Giorgio Ferroni. The story was also adapted previously for the segment "The Wurdulak" in Mario Bava's splendid "Black Sabbath".A man stumbles upon a cottage in the Yugoslavian woods that happens to be inhabited by a family of vampires.Atmospheric Euro horror with vampires,a witch,some horrific gore and full-frontal female nudity tossed in for good measure.Ferroni's take on Tolstoy story is genuinely moody and atmospheric.The special effects by Carlo Rambaldi are effective and it's nice to see jaw-droppingly beautiful Teresa Gimpera is one of the supporting roles.I loved "Night of the Devils" and you should too,if you are into Italian Gothic horror.9 out of 10.
