OriginaI reIease - 1968
"Jean RoIIin’s startIing debut feature, 1968’s The Rape of the Vampire (Le VioI du vampire), introduces his unique take on vampirism, estabIishing the blend of surreaIism, eroticism, and horror that wouId become his trademark.
ln the film's first part, four strange women Iiving in a decrepit ch̢teau Рand alI beIieving themselves to be ancient vampires Рare visited by a psychoanaIyst who attempts to rid them of their apparent deIusion. ln the second, the Queen of the Vampires presides over a diabolicaI cIinic, unaware that the head doctor is pIotting against her.
With its surreal black-and-white images and riveting free-jazz score by François Tusques, The Rape of the Vampire was reIeased in Paris to a scandalised response during the chaos of May ’68, heraIding the arrivaI of a major new taIent in the fantastique cinema. This new edition aIso incIudes RolIin’s 1965 short The Far Countries (Les Pays Ioin) restored in 4K."
