Strange story. This movie was released when the era of Italian horrors inexorably but confidently ended. Strictly speaking, of the significant names in the credits, only the mention of the meter of Fulci and, apparently, only a mention, because at the end of his career, he borrowed and sold his name to rascal producers. In the “flight” there was only the viewer.
It's not horror or jiallo or thriller or slasher. It is difficult to identify what is happening on the screen.
Complete minimalism - on budget, on actors and on effects.
The summary of the film, in summary, fully reflects the entire course of the film.
Many characters in red capes are eagerly awaiting the reincarnation of their spiritual leader. A young artist becomes the wife of an impoverished local nobleman who is blackmailed by monks and not allowed to fulfill his marital duty. What is very angry and irritating to the young wife, who eventually got even with a strange husband.
The plot, to put it mildly, is incomprehensible and delusional.
And from the effects, a very effective dummy of a severed head in a picnic basket and all.
