This is not the classic Mario Bava film from 1960. This is the film of the same title directed by his son Lamberto Bava for Italian television in 1989. It uses the same story for inspiration but plays out like the third DEMONS movie with lots of possessions, a doomed romantic relationship, some demonic seduction and lots of surreal happenings that cast doubt on everything we are shown. The effects work by Italian master Sergio Stivaletti is pretty great and the cast throws themselves into the madness. This won't be everyone's cup of tea but I enjoy it and wish a Blu-Ray existed.
