Huntress: Spirit of the Night

A woman inherits her father's estate in Northern Wales, which is cursed. Eventually she succumbs to the curse, which transforms her into a black panther. The creature is never seen on screen. The acting and atmospherics were superb.

The story is essentially a mystery of both the occult and human nature. A serious minded young woman, Tara, returns to the exotic world of her early childhood and makes new acquaintances. Sexual encounters awaken her inner passions, and she soon exhibits a newly discovered physical prowess.

Jenna Bodnar, as Tara, is fairly attractive. The few erotic scenes and moderate violence add needed excitement, but they are not done to excess. Suspense and intrigue are the main appeals of the film. The setting is dark and foreboding, and the main plot develops slowly.

Tara inherits a wealthy estate from her distant estranged father. Inexplicably, just before his death he insisted that she stay away from the place. Tara's life is in danger and someone is trying to take advantage of her. Local folks repeatedly warn Tara, but they hesitate to tell her what they know. Even her new found mysterious lover, who seems to understand her true nature, offers little help. So, Tara is left practically all alone to ponder her mysterious circumstances. Naive, she is easily exploited, and she suffers a sinister fate.

The movie's main disappointment is the fact that it ends with the story unfinished. Tara slowly transforms into something frightening, but we never get to see what she becomes. I don't know if there is any sequel, in which case I am not sure the movie is worth the effort.

A young woman returns to her childhood home in Europe (somewhere in England, I think) to inherit her deceased father's mansion. She discovers a strange family curse that that leads her to the usual "sexual awakening" stuff.

First of all, Jenna Bodnar (who looks vaguely similar to Tawny Kitean) looks great in the film, with lovely curly red hair and high cheekbones. She gets some great sex scenes, most notably a half-a**ed threesome on a wooden bench, and a nice scene where she slithers and undulates in a dark cave for her prospective photographer boyfriend.

Sex aside though, this almost works as an actual film. Bodnar is a good enough actress to make me care (slightly) about her situation. The sets are nice, and the supporting cast helps. Only drawback: an ending so abrupt and inconclusive, I thought the director ran out of film. Maybe director Mark Manos meant for it to be metaphysical or something.

Huntress: Spirit of the Night is an erotic horror film directed by Mark Manos.

An architect discovers the animal inside her after she falls prey to an ancient curse on a visit to her Welsh homeland.

This film can easily be called as soft core porn film instead of a horror film as this has very limited to almost none horror scenes. The film has no suspense, no gore and no violence. The film ends abruptly without making any sense. Watch only if you like soft-core films as this film has nothing to offer on horror part.

This is another so-called horror flick,which is more soft-core sex than actually horror.Apart from some nicely filmed sex scenes and atmospheric sets there's nothing worth any recommendation here:no suspense,no gore&violence.The lead actress Jenna Bodnar is pretty hot(especially during the masturbation scene)and the sex scenes are suitably titillating.Watch it,if you have got nothing better to do.
