Blood Orgy of the She Devils - 1972



This wasn't the trailer I was looking for, but happening on a title this awesome requires at least one viewing. Between that and a quick trip to the IMDB, I've figured out that this is probably a terribly shitty movie. The trailer alone gives us the first glimpse of how likely awful a piece of shit this movie is, with it's poorly edited cuts, lack of gore despite hints of incredible violence and a voiceover that introduces us to characters as they're zoomed into; all hallmarks of films made on the basis that a salient trailer might provoke attendance but which, while watching, are unmasked as boring, nearly plotless movies meandering through ninety minutes with long bouts of meaningless dialogue and very slow chases.

I'm imaging that the protagonist is a scientist or cop hot on the trail of the Satanist She-Devils. I can already imagine the endless segments cutting between Mara the witch casting spells and the cop/scientist/occult fighter explaining to his clueless aids how various crime scenes point to...Witchcraft!

Is it unfair to judge a movie by its trailer? Probably. In this case, I'm sticking with my pre-loaded opinion. The seventies have burned me too many times with movies like this. Still, entertaining trailer.
