... a minor beauty of the genre, a medieval revenge film with an innocent burned for witchcraft, a corrupt aristocracy, a curse, a ghost, and a sweet, sweet revenge. Go to Full Review

02/04/2014 Slow, simple, and rather bleak. The characters are stale and the story is lackluster. There's some interesting concepts and scenes sprinkled throughout, and the setting is neat, but for the most part, it's another forgettable film. See more 05/24/2013 Solid Gothic horror from underrated director Antonio Margheriti. The film is really a showcase for Barbara Steele and is certainly a must for fans of her work. Taking a cue from Bava's "Black Sunday", Steele plays two roles, plotting revenge on the man who accused her of witchcraft. Well not a stellar film, it is very entertaining and well made. See more 02/21/2012 Poor and cheaply made Italian horror film, the score is ridiculous. It does have some good camerawork, the acting is over dramatic. Not much attention to period detail. Not very scary but has a decent atmosphere. See more 02/21/2012 a bit crappy quality but still fun See more 01/08/2012 Well worth seeing for both Barbara Steele fans and Italian Gothic horror buffs alike. See more 09/05/2010 A great tale of ghostly revenge and corrupt kings, starring my favourite horror actress: Barbara Steele. I really like this movie. See more Read all reviews
