Description

BEWARE THE KISS OF THE DEVIL! Maverick exploitation film director Jess Franco and Swiss producer Erwin C. Dietrich's notorious "nunsploitation" classic LOVE LETTERS OF A PORTUGUESE NUN comes to Blu-ray for the very first time in North America, totally uncut and remastered in HD from the original camera negative! 16-year-old Maria (the lovely Susan Hemingway) is taken by force into the dreaded Serra D'Aires convent, a sect secretly run by diabolical Satanists. Her confessor is in collusion with the Mother Superior (Ana Zanatti) and the not so pious pair almost immediately subject Maria to unspeakable tortures, forcing her into sex with men, women, and even the Devil himself. Gaslit into believing this supernatural debauchery is all a dream, she writes a letter to God begging for salvation, but the powers that be have other hideous plans in store for her...

Shocking, salacious and also stunningly shot and expertly performed by an international cast, LOVE LETTERS OF A PORTUGUESE NUN is among the best blasphemous European horror films of the 1970s and a high mark in Franco and Dietrich's respective oeuvres.

    Amazing

    Honestly a great little erotic horror movie. Ending is abrupt, but doesn't take away.

    A little to exploitive for me

    Great nunploitation, but I don’t personally like the idea of using a younger girl like that in these movies. This is the freaks, but not the cool kind.

    The devil made me do it!

    Excellent slipcover and a nicely done transfer to Blu Ray disc. Color and picture is very good for a 1977 film. A young girl is sent to a covent and torture for her sins. This film is not a hardcore from Jess Franco. Some frontal nudity and that's it. And plus a few gory torture scenes. A Jess Franco fan, Joe NY.
