From Belgian filmmaker Harry Kümel (DAUGHTERS OF DARKNESS) comes this ultimate phantasmagorical Euro nightmare with equal parts surrealism, Greek mythology and gothic intrigue. We follow a young sailor who returns to his childhood port only to be abducted into the eerie mansion of Malpertuis, ruled by his dying occultist uncle Cassavius (Orson Welles). All of Malpertuis’ inhabitants are waiting for Cassavius to die and the opportunity to inherit his vast fortune…but Cassavius wishes anyone who inherits to stay there *forever*! This one-of-a-kind tale is a Russian doll of fantastic ideas, realised with stunning photography by Gerry Fisher (EXORCIST III) and scored by Georges Delerue (CONTEMPT).
