1h 21m
Directed by Corrado Farina • 1973 • Italy Starring Carroll Baker, George Eastman, Isabelle De Funès
Based on the notorious S&M comics of Guido Crepax, this psychedelic Euroshocker stars Carroll Baker as a mysterious sorceress with an undying hunger for sensual ecstasy and unspeakable torture. But when she casts a spell over a beautiful young fashion photographer (Isabelle De Funès), Milan’s most luscious models are sucked into a nightmare world of lesbian seduction and shocking sadism. Are these carnal crimes the result of one woman’s forbidden fantasies or is this the depraved curse of the devil witch known as Baba Yaga?
