Scythe and the Stupid Man in Jean Rollin’s ‘Fascination’ [Horror Queers Podcast]

Tits Out.

We transitioned from Pride Month discussions of Danny Boyle’s 28 Days Later (listen) and ’90s nostalgia in Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers: The Movie (listen) into summer blockbuster territory with Jaws (listen) last week. Now we’re inching the dial up a few years to discuss French director Jean Rollin‘s “lesbian vampire film” Fascination (1979).

The quotes are there because these characters, particularly the women, are much more sexually fluid, and there’s no actual vampires present (if anything this is a film about a cult!).

In case you’re unaware, Fascination is the story of a duplicitous thief named Marc (Jean-Marie Lemaire) who seeks refuge in a French castle with his stolen loot. He mistakenly believes the place is empty until he happens upon Eva (Brigitte Lahaie) and Elizabeth (Franca Maï), female lovers who allow him to hide but also tease that he must be gone by nightfall.
