An art student buys a relic that depicts a crucified man, and soon it comes to life and injects some Satan into her if you get what I mean. A moderately original premise devolves into a D grade "Exorcist" rip-off with a lot of really racy content. Also known as "The Sexorcist", which is really the perfect title for it.

Starts off doing its own thing bringing some interesting ideas to the table ...but it quickly devolves into a trashier, half-baked retelling of The Exorcist. Not necessarily a bad thing for entertainment's sake but it could've been trashy and different. The filmmakers just took the easy way out.

Watchable little possession flick about an art student who finds herself being molested by the devil while restoring an artifact, watched as part of my Halloween marathoning during October.
Worth a look, but nothing life-changing.

Starring: Stella Carnacina, Chris Avram, Ivan Rassimov, Lucretia Love, Luigi Pistilli, and Gabriele Tinti
Director: Mario Gariazzo
While working in proximity to a relic tied to a Satanic cult noted for its wild orgies, young Daniele (Carnacina) is possessed by Satan. Before you know it, she is engaging in wild masturbation and making in decent proposals to anyone who will listen. Her parents (Avram and Love) taker her to a remote nunnery where they hope a famed exorcist (Pistilli) will cure her.

A film with little reason for being other than it was made to catch some of the money raining down from the record-breaking box office of "The Exorcist" in the early 1970s, "The Eerie Midnight Horror Show" plays like a sleazier, less coherent version than the block it was chipped off from.
However, the rambling, wandering story structure was the most interesting thing about the picture; it brought a sense of realism to a film that at times works a little too hard to bring deeper meaning to its parade of titilating and shocking imagery. The haphazard way scenes are strung together and the badly connected logic versus action of just about everyone in the picture, from the demon straight up through the priest called in to cast him out, gives the movie a sense of what I imagine it would probably be like if there really was such a thing as demonic possession.
But, aside from some creepy imagery here and there, and scenes of a young woman engaging in sexual activity that will make you feel a little dirty while you watch it, there's really nothing here that's noteworthy. Everything is either bland or overplayed to the point where it loses impact, such as the handsome, sexy demonic figure. The casting of Ivan Rassimov was a clever move, as he is both a very attractive man and has the ability to look exceptionally creepy... but his lines are so over the top with their melodrama that he becomes almost a parody of the evil he is supposed to represent.
I came across this film as part of the 50-movie megapack "Pure Terror" collection, and as such it is relatively harmless filler. However, I don't believe it would be worth the price to rent or purchase as a stand-alone film unless you are a dedicated student or rabid fan of this particular horror sub-genre.

[font=Arial Black]Have you ever felt like your mother was not all she seemed to be? Would you be afraid to learn the truth? This movie is about a mother who is not very family orientated. She just wants to find pleasure by going out with men who perform evil sex acts on her body. The daughter is a art restorer, and she comes upon an old church that was autioning off some statues of men on a crucifix.
This movie is badly dubbed, but the actors are good, so it did not bother me as much. I liked the "Devil Man" in this picture, because he was just as crazy as I thought the devil would be. I felt like I met a character like that in my life, that was sexy and cool, but basically an evil person. But this was a movie about having sex with the devil and then turning into a sex starved, "quakers" chick!
I would have to say for those that only want blood in their horror pictures, there is none except for brief encounter in the beginning. Like most horror fans, they don't want to know the grossest part, so I won't mention it.
Being too sexy is the devil's work and he will only ruin you. I think that is a good message in a movie for any young girl who wears too tight clothing or walks around showing her belly button in a school setting. Or a boy who is too quick to have sex with anyone.
