This twisted Italian oddity, originally titled L'Odessa, is an incomprehensible muddle of Devil-possession horror and lots of kinky soft-core sex (its original U.S. title was The Sexorcist). The story revolves around a weird religious icon -- depicting one of the two thieves crucified with Christ -- and the demonic sexual influence it exerts on a young art student (Stella Carnacina). After a gory dream sequence in which the woman imagines herself being nailed to a cross herself, the statue eventually comes to life and begins to sexually torment her ... whereupon the entire film careens off-track into Exorcist territory, where it slogs for an uninvolving and unoriginal final hour. ~ Cavett Binion, All Movie Guide

Normally, I love sloppily-made Italian flicks. Giallo, Zombie, whatever...but nothing can excuse this. This movie has something to do with the satanic posession of a young lady by a life-size crucifix. There are a couple of Exorcist-like scenes, and some guy with really zig-zaggy eyebrows...a few unsatisfying nude scenes...not like it's Cat People or anything....wait, was he the guy on the cross?...and, oh yeah.....zzszzhzzzzzz....
Whoa. Sorry. Did I snork out? Sorry man. Criminy, is the movie STILL PLAYING? Oh, mama, this thing just goes on and on and on. Yipes, I thought Titanic was interminably boring.
Well, yeah, it was, but this is worse. Back in the envelope! |
