Quotes
The Boy: [In the cemetery, looking at all the elaborate tombs] I don't care where they put me when I'm dead.
The Girl: Do you think the soul escapes from the body after death? Is there such a thing as the soul?
The Boy: I don't think there's anything left after physical death. And it's stupid to spend all that money on stiffs.
The Girl: Some do that out of love.
The Boy: Well, I prefer the love of life more than the love of death.

Graveyard Shift...

In Director Jean Rollin's THE IRON ROSE, a man and woman (Hughes Quester and Fancoise Pascal) meet at a wedding reception, go for a bike ride, and end up at a cemetery. Deciding to have sex in a crypt (!!), they manage to stay until sundown.

When they try to leave the cemetery, they're unable to find a way out. Increasing panic spirals downward into insanity. Death, the fear thereof, and superstitious dread are explored.

One of Rollin's more subtle efforts, it contains far less nudity and more philosophical discussion than his other horror films. The scene where the young lovers roll around in human bones is unsettling, and what's up with the clown, anyway? Rollin followers will enjoy this, while those expecting a typical horror movie might want to watch something else...
