THE DEVIL'S POSSESSED 1974 (SHOUT FACTORY) BLU-RAY

Interesting action/horror film with Spanish superstar Paul Naschy.

Leon Klimovsky directed this interesting film starring Paul Naschy as Baron Gilles de Lancre who returns from battle and begins a reign of terror over his people.

He uses witchcraft and torture to keep the people in line. he does this because he has fallen for a sexy female named Georgelle and and evil alchemist and believes he will have power if beautiful women are sacrificed to Satan.

The plot is pretty straight forward and is not really a horror film. The sets and costumes are very good for the period film, and Naschy plays the role to the hilt..

The presentation from Shout is better than any other print I have ever seen of the film, and they have done a fine job even if they didn't have the original film elements to work with.

This is part of Shout's "Paul Naschy Collection 2" and no Spanish movie fan or Naschy fan should be without it.
