DVD Review: Finally Solares' sickening sleazefest available on DVD!
Summary: 4 Stars
The Italians are well-known for having brought exploitation cinema to new levels of disturbing heights in the 70's with their cannibal and zombie films. Another sub-genre that flooded the video-nasty market were "nunsploitation" films, which involved nuns doing deviant, illicit, erotic (!) and highly immoral acts. It all started in 1971 when Ken Russell's "The Devils" became a cult hit worldwide. The success of Russell's controversial masterpiece then opened the gates to an entire sub-genre of sleaze in which many of the best-known exploitation auteurs of the 70's chose to capitalize on. Joe D'Amato's "Images in a Convent", Bruno Mattei with "The Other Hell", Andrea Bianchi with "Malabimba". Even Lucio Fulci joined the fray in 1990 with "Demonia" but by then the genre had already died a derivative death and these films would be relegated to being nothing more than cult exploitation curiosities.
One of the best films from that era in my opinion is "Satanico Pandemonium"(1975, Mexico). The film is lensed by none other than Gilberto Solares, who just happens to be Mexico's most prolific filmmaker ever, with close to 200 films to his name, including a bunch of those cheesy "Santo" films.
Story: Sister Maria is a nun who is practically a model of saintliness, one who the other sisters look up to and who is always there to lend a hand and console others in troubling times. However things take a turn for the worse when Maria starts seeing a naked apple-chewing guy who she is convinced must be the devil incarnate. From then on, Sister Maria begins a downfall into hallucinations, insatiable lust for boys and other sisters within the convent, self-mutilation, stabbing and a host of other unpleasantries. Sister Maria, somewhat against her will, has now gone on a rampage within the convent and no amount of cold showers will do anything to decrease her insatiable lust for pain and flesh...
If the thought of fully-robed nuns suddenly baring it all and engaging in lesbian lust appeals to you, then Satanico is a real treat. Director Solares definitely chose his lead actress well, as Cecilia Pezet delivers a fearless performance. I really liked her transition from model of saintliness to woman of depravity, the descent is gradual and she is extremely convincing in the role. Satanico Pandemonium is gory but not uber-gory. However there are so many objectionable things tied in with religion and sexuality that it's bound to make the majority of viewers (especially those Catholic) blush a few times throughout.
The best part of this movie to me is the beautiful way in which it is lensed. The screen just explodes with colour, the sets and costumes are flawless and it has some absolutely beautiful shots of the Mexican countryside. This movie is so much more than just a piece of sleaze and I wholeheartedly recommend this DVD, which has been given a gorgeous transfer and includes lots of informative special features. Amen to that.
