I don't quit figure out wtf is going on in this movie, but DAM!
It's really a piece of work. It's BAD. I would explain the plot, if there was one.
It's also very creepy!
I'm torn if this is pure genuis or madness.

Btw-I own CAVE OF THE LIVING DEAD on dvd-which is a boring German vampire film only notable because of a brief titty shot.

I think I'll have a look and see if I can find the full length movie.

Right here-!
This movie don't f**k around.
It's weird, and at times quite disturbing. It's also very shoddy. Yet creepy. I'm torn!

Just going to fire up my laptop to watch it while I do some writing here.

Ok, so a slight change of plans. Watching Quatermass & The Pit and then going to watch this.

Yup, I agree with strange and creepy.

Very dark, no acting skills whatsoever present, and very misogynistic.

If thouest can spell 'misogynistic'. It took me 3 f**king times!

I also had to watch this in parts. I couldn't sit through the whole thing in one sitting. I had to stop every 20 minutes or so.
It alternates between "WTF?!" and boredom.

Basically women in bondage movies. The whole sacrifice scene in temple of doom with Willie was just a high budget version of it.

That's for America- It's a German film,original title of METEMPSYO. It actually wasn't released in the USA until 1966!
Thank you for bringing that to my attention!

Kinda like HORRORS OF SPIDER ISLAND (1959)
It didn't hit the States until about 1964 in the English version,

Damn, I'd have put money on the 'plot' being Italian.

QatP is such an incredibly good movie.
