Review by SkullScreamerReturns

This Jean Rollin film has an interesting setting. Some wicked sailors/pirates lure ships to crash to the shore and then rape and kill two surviving women. Then the women come back from the dead to haunt their murderers.

Well, the ghost part is difficult to explain because they can appear as visions, but they also are physical. It's not a straightforward revenge flick either - be prepared for some Rollin style aimless wandering.

It's a bit boring film after all but I liked some things about it. First of all there aren't enough horror films with a pirate/sea theme, so that was a nice spice. I also liked the beginning when the women start to appear in visions to the drunkard pirate captain. That was a nice paranoid feel. I wish this atmosphere would have continued further but it fell a bit short. Then, I liked that there is a little bit more to the plot that the women just paying revenge right away. They have to do a little bit adventuring first and there are some more more weird characters.

I don't know when I'm going to want to watch the movie again, but it sits on my shelf now because Rollin is my favorite boring director. Recommended for Rollin fans but others approach with caution.
