La nuit de l'enfer

With Franco dead the Spanish could let rip and this one certainly goes at a pace. There are many sex and Satanism films that barely get round to either sex or Satanism, this one revels in it throughout. Just when it gets a bit silly towards the end, it gets very silly and builds to a great finale. In fact much of the film is really good, as well as almost constant bare flesh from the ladies and the gents there is blood and gore AND a really creepy atmosphere aided by the strange antics of the main protagonists. Whenever we see them in the deserted kitchen they seem bent over some dog bowl, and when they are in bed together they growl and pair like two animals. Granted an 'S' for sex certificate upon it's Spanish release and it certainly deserves it, though it also deserves a 'V' for violence and 'G' for gore. Excellent stuff - and not over long!

"Satan's Blood" has to be one of the most underrated Spanish horror films ever made.It's sleazy and genuinely creepy Satanic horror flick co-produced by Juan Piquer Simon and well-directed by Carlos Puerto.Andy and Thelma,a couple living in Madrid leave their apartment for a pleasant day around the city with their dog Blackie.They cross paths with Bruno and Anne,a strange couple who invite them to their eerie country estate.Unbeknownst to them,Bruno and Anne are devil worshippers...Very atmospheric chiller that offers plenty of sleaze and full-frontal nudity.The scenes with a creepy porcelain child doll scared the hell out of me.The opening scene of nasty rape-murder in a Satanists' coven is wonderful."Satan's Blood" is extremely hard to find,but if you are a fan of sleazy Spanish horror give it a look.10 out of 10.

This is a very good spanish horror film made in the franco era. Its erotic sleazy and as its made in mid winter, it has nice chill feeling about it.See it, don't expect the ground to tremble but its workman like and spanish horrors of the seventies are nearly always worth watching.

People who enjoy this film because of it's nudity and sex scenes should really consider if they are film goers or not. I don't mind watching a sex scene here or there but the movie is classified as horror! There were a couple of terrifying moments but they didn't last, then, the sex scene once again.

This is not film making at it's best. Spain has produced some "GREAT" films in the past but this one does not come anywhere near good.

You want to sell your films to people who enjoy watching nude women flaunting their bodies, then go and direct porn. For me, a good film needs a storyline and good acting and not have to resort in a film to have sex scenes and naked woman all through the film.

It can be awkward when we are approached by a couple who swear they know us and we haven't a clue who they are. It must be a good deal worse if we accompany these people to their home to 'catch up' and we realise they are a couple of perverted demon worshippers who have some very grisly plans. This is exactly what happens to Andres (José María Guillén) and his pregnant wife Ana (Marianna Karr). Pretty soon their lives have taken on an extraordinary turn for the worse.

Directors Carlos Puerto and (an uncredited) Juan Piquer Simón make sure we're just as unnerved and anxious as the unfortunate pair. True to its 'euro-sleaze' trappings, the foreboding atmosphere is heavily punctuated with lingering scenes of sex that drag things down a little - but developments come thick and fairly fast. It's a tension-filled rollercoaster and a good way to spend 82 minutes.
