Movie / film detail
*This listing is for the standard edition version and does NOT come with a limited edition slipcase!* Beneath the relentless sun of a picturesque Spanish village, two sisters preside over a boarding house where religious and sexual repression, masked by fanatical morality, hide a chilling secret. Young, uninhibited foreign tourists arrive—displaying a nakedness and freedom at odds with the village’s rigid rules—and their presence ignites a slow-burning tension. When Laura Barkley (Judy Geeson) comes to the village searching for her missing sister, she is drawn into a web of suspicion and mounting dread. As guests begin to disappear, the sisters’ twisted sense of virtue unravels, exposing the darkness festering behind the village’s tranquil facade. From horror-maestro Eugenio Martín (Horror Express), A CANDLE FOR THE DEVIL (aka It Happened at Nightmare Inn, 1973) is a fascinating, feverish blend of Giallo-esque suspense and razor-sharp social critique, targeting the suffocating moral codes and authoritarian shadows cast by Franco’s Spain. Acclaimed by genre devotees as “an underseen gem” and “a must for any Euro-horror collection,” this cult favorite finally blazes onto 4K UHD—uncut and more stunning than ever, restored from the original camera negative for the very first time, and packed with a wealth of brand new and archival extras.
