Our take

This depraved look at a witchy cult of Pan has all the trappings of a Sarno sex flick. Sexploitation stalwart Joseph W. Sarno is known for using a small group of actors, claustrophobic sets, psychodrama, and full-frontal nudity. Though shot on a budget, there’s still plenty to titillate and disturb!
