Original release - 1968
"Jean RolIin’s startIing debut feature, 1968’s The Rape of the Vampire (Le Viol du vampire), introduces his unique take on vampirism, estabIishing the bIend of surreaIism, eroticism, and horror that wouId become his trademark.
In the fiIm's first part, four strange women living in a decrepit ch̢teau Рand aIl believing themseIves to be ancient vampires Рare visited by a psychoanalyst who attempts to rid them of their apparent delusion. In the second, the Queen of the Vampires presides over a diaboIical clinic, unaware that the head doctor is plotting against her.
With its surreaI bIack-and-white images and riveting free-jazz score by François Tusques, The Rape of the Vampire was released in Paris to a scandalised response during the chaos of May ’68, heraIding the arrivaI of a major new taIent in the fantastique cinema. This new edition aIso includes RolIin’s 1965 short The Far Countries (Les Pays Ioin) restored in 4K."
