The Rites of Uranus (1975)
** (out of 4)
Bizarre blend of porn and horror has a group of what looks like Satanists worshiping Uranus and this leads to various women being brought in for sexual sacrifices.
THE RITES OF URANUS is another low-budget porn film that probably had a handful of people actually see it back when it was released. I'm sure those legendary stories we've heard about the dangerous 42nd Street is exactly where this played probably sometime after all the druggies would have been in the theater. As far as the film goes, it's okay but certainly nothing special. There are some unintentional laughs that help keep the film moving at a nice pace. The rituals are all rather amusing to say the least but the costumes are laughable. At just 59-minutes there's certainly nothing great here but it's decent for its kind.
