From my favorite movies..

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

Strange and demonic. The devil raises more than his evil head. A beautiful art student (Stella Carnacina) eyes an ancient sculpture and her soul is possessed by Satan (Ivan Rassimov). The life-like sculpture comes to life and rapes the young woman causing her to lose control of her sexual thoughts and actions. Her body becomes a battlefield as an exorcism adds fuel to the old battle of good versus evil. Not everyone's cup of tea; interest is haphazard. A graphic rated R early 1970's style.Directed by Mario Gariazzo. The cast also features: Luigi Pistilli, Lucretia Love, Chris Avram, Piero Gerlini, Gianrico Tondinelli and Gabriele Tinti.

'The Eerie Midnight Horror Show' aka 'Enter the Devil' (1974) is a Euro-trash horror surrounding demonic possession of a young woman. It's an okay rip-off of 'The Exorcist (1973)' - mildly entertaining.The beginning of this film did not do much for me - in fact it bored me. But I continued to watch it anyway (I gave it a chance) and the movie got better. The last 20 to 30 minutes of the film is good.I was hoping to like this film better than what I do. I like it to a degree but the beginning of the film I found to be quite a bore. It's not to bad of a movie if you are looking for another film on demons possessing someone.4/10

Another Italian rip-off of an American hit, this time it's THE EXORCIST. A young art student (Stella Carnacina) falls under the spell of a wooden statue found in the ruins of a desecrated church but the figure on the cross isn't Jesus (thank God) and when she's alone with it, the religious icon comes to life and rapes her. Soon she can't stop masturbating and puts the make on her father before becoming a lascivious, low-budget Linda Blair in this super sleazy slice of erotic horror "based on a true story". The second half of the film couldn't possibly live up to the first half but no matter, the shocking segment just described lingers long after the movie's over. Good lord.

Lovely and innocent young art student Danilla (a fearless performance by foxy brunette Stella Carnacina) is tormented by vivid and disturbing dreams of being nailed to a cross. Things get really strange and intense when the crucifix she's dreaming about comes to life and possesses her body, thus turning sweet Danilla into a shameless raving nympho who masturbates and tries to seduce her staid father Mario (a suitably uptight portrayal by Chris Avram). Director Mario Gariazzo and writer Ambrogio Molteni take the blithely lurid story seriously, do a sound job of creating and maintaining a scuzzy atmosphere, and, of course, deliver a few jolting moments of bloody'n'brutal violence along with a handy helping of kinky sex and yummy female nudity (the set piece with the statue making love to Danilla is quite sizzling and depraved). The solid cast of familiar Eurotrash cinema regulars helps a lot: the luscious Lucretia Love as Danilla's sadomasochistic adulteress mother Luisa, Gabriele Tinti as Luisa's sadistic lover, Luigi Pistilli as the intrepid and determined ace exorcist Father Xeno, and, in a deliciously wicked turn, Ivan Rassimov as a cackling lascivious Satan. Moreover, this flick has an inspired sense of warped lunacy to it: The statue coming to life stuff is weird and original and a sequence in which Danilla attempts to escape from a church is positively hysterical. The groovy music, ghastly 70's fashions, and disco dancing give the picture a certain campy retro charm. Carlo Carlini's cinematography makes effective occasional use of overhead camera shots. Marcello Giombini's wonky shuddery score does the shivery trick. Good sleazy fun.
