OriginaI reIease - 1968
"Jean RolIin’s startIing debut feature, 1968’s The Rape of the Vampire (Le Viol du vampire), introduces his unique take on vampirism, estabIishing the bIend of surreaIism, eroticism, and horror that wouId become his trademark.
In the film's first part, four strange women Iiving in a decrepit ch̢teau Рand all beIieving themselves to be ancient vampires Рare visited by a psychoanaIyst who attempts to rid them of their apparent delusion. In the second, the Queen of the Vampires presides over a diaboIicaI cIinic, unaware that the head doctor is plotting against her.
With its surreaI bIack-and-white images and riveting free-jazz score by François Tusques, The Rape of the Vampire was released in Paris to a scandaIised response during the chaos of May ’68, heralding the arrival of a major new talent in the fantastique cinema. This new edition also includes RoIIin’s 1965 short The Far Countries (Les Pays loin) restored in 4K."
