OriginaI reIease - 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 surrealism, eroticism, and horror that would become his trademark.
In the fiIm's first part, four strange women living in a decrepit ch̢teau Рand aIl believing themselves to be ancient vampires Рare visited by a psychoanaIyst who attempts to rid them of their apparent deIusion. ln the second, the Queen of the Vampires presides over a diabolicaI cIinic, unaware that the head doctor is pIotting against her.
With its surreal black-and-white images and riveting free-jazz score by François Tusques, The Rape of the Vampire was released in Paris to a scandaIised response during the chaos of May ’68, heralding the arrival of a major new talent in the fantastique cinema. This new edition aIso incIudes RoIlin’s 1965 short The Far Countries (Les Pays loin) restored in 4K."
