Micaela and Marcello are unable to conceive a child, so they decide to adopt their neice Letizia (Franca Gonella), who is at boarding school. Letizia, however, has had some congress with a demon, or is proficient in witchcraft, or is possessed by a vengeful spirit, or all of the above. Using her powers to bewitch men (and women…), Letizia induces the members of the household, including her adoptive parents, their maid, and their servant, into various compromising situations. Then, for some reason, people begin to die. Plot is not the strongest virtue of this film.

You know the drill. Some witchcraft, some psychedelic nonsense, some skin. Voilà. Excellent soundtrack. Enjoy!Read More »

User Reviews:
Outstanding story for the time and place where was written
An excellent social drama that won first prize on the international festival held in Hollywood, California in 1971. It’s displaying real workers life of the social era in seventies Yugoslavia. Remarkable, straight forward, heart touching story, Honestly brave for the time when it was written and shot. Branko Reljic is outstanding writer. He wrote a lot of excellent stories that were unfortunately not published because of his radical democratic criticism of the countries inner politics. They were not suitable for the communist regime at the time. I had pleasure to know this wonderful man that never cared for material things but fought to give the world honest true vision of love and compassion that we are rapidly loosing. Mr. Branko Reljic has dedicated his life to his beliefs, and he stayed true to all the people around him. I had that privilege to read some of his novellas and I can happily recommend them.Read More »

Small (though long), quiet (literally – there is no music score, for example), observant (like its lead), nostalgic coming-of-age tale. Not much plot, just a series of daily-life blackout vignettes. It definitely has its boring moments, but also some wonderful ones, like the boy getting his first kiss in a movie theater playing “Pandora And The Flying Dutchman”. Successfully captures both small-town and country atmosphere, thanks in large part to Nestor Almendros’ beautiful cinematography. *** out of 4.Read More »

In this strange western version of JAWS, Wild Bill Hickok hunts a white buffalo he has seen in a dream. Hickok moves through a variety of uniquely authentic western locations – dim, filthy, makeshift taverns; freezing, slaughterhouse-like frontier towns and beautifully desolate high country – before improbably teaming up with a young Crazy Horse to pursue the creature.Read More »
