My DVD copy claims Umberto Lenzi directed this very late 1960s movie and the director listed on IMDB is a well-known alias of the great Lenzi.
This movie covers a lot of topics, S&M (which I found rather disturbing.), Witchcraft, Dream Sequences, Fascism, Nazism, European Student Protests and Photography. American viewers (like myself) will appreciate the European (Italian/Germanic) feel to this film, especially considering it was made over 30 years ago.
I would recommend this film. It isn't an over-the-top Lenzi Gorefest (these came later in his career), but certainly is an interesting 90 minutes of your time one saturday or sunday afternoon. I purchased my copy for $7.00 at an FYE store in New York, so the price is right.
I give it a 9/10 for an early lenzi mystery/horror shocker.
