but if you love anything from Rosemarys baby to Jodorowsky and anything from ...
It's been a few years since I watched this one and was blown away once again by the surrealistic horror from this veteran of the panic movement. Beware this is not for the pop horror fan. If your fav. flicks are paranormal activity or any of the numerous remakes of the 2000's bow out, but if you love anything from Rosemarys baby to Jodorowsky and anything from arthouse to extreme grindhouse and in between strap in and hold on!

bizarre and compelling
Alucarda begins as a new mother in some sort of implied peril, sends her newborn daughter off to a convent for safe keeping. Years later her grown girl (Alucarda) and companion stumble upon mom's tomb and are overtaken by the evil force that killed her. Filled with piss-and-vinegar the two return to the convent and unleash wave of demonic terror that brings the convent to it's knees. Riding the crest of the Exorcist and Ken Russell's The Devils, Mexican Director, Lopez Moctezuma delivered this hybrid that still manages bare his own unique brand of surrealism. Not unlike Carrie, Alucarda takes the theme of female sexual maturation to it's absurd limits, right down to having the nuns of the convent garbed in what appear to be bloodied menstrual rags. In fact, there is almost a constant "flow" of blood & nudity intertwined throughout the film; a flow which the nuns try (and fail) to quell by dishing out equal parts of love & sadism toward the two girls and themselves . Obviously if your not a fan of non-linear flights of blasphemous fancy, you need not apply here, because this by no means your run-of-the-mill demonic possession ripoff. Though filled with a good many arresting visuals, I don't agree with those who feel this is Moctezuma's finest hour. I would still give that honor to Mansion of Madness (Dr. Tarr's Torture Dungeon), largely because in that film Moctezuma orchestrates his delirium with greater virtuosity and focus. I'm guessing it's the ample nudity that gives Alucarda the leg up for some of it's devoted fans. Mondo Macabro has put out a pretty nice DVD of this bilingual production, with image quality that does justice to Moctezuma's vision. My only beef is that though they include both a Spanish and English audio option, I would have liked to get English subtitles as the Spanish track had additional music cues not present on the English track, and sounded a little more organic in general.

"and this is what the devil does"
Tina Romero gives one of my all time favorite female horror film performances as Alucarda, which happens to be one of my all-time favorite 70's exploitation movies. The film is full of weird visuals, over the top performances, diatribes about faith versus reason, nudity, blood and lapses of logic - everything I love about these types of films!! Highly entertaining if not very horrific and briskly paced at only 74 minutes. The transfer is clear and colorful as well.

Just received a broken case only (no dvd)
I got my package today and it was just a broken dvd case, zero stars. I only gave it one star because I had to.

No subtitles
I'm not posting this to say how good or not this film is. If you are looking it up on Amazon then you already have an opinion. I did want to note that the DVD has no subtitles. You either watch the original Spanish or or the badly dubbed English language version. FYI

Mexican director Lopez Moctezuma was a collaborator of legendary director Joderowsky (El Topo, Magic Mountain).The film has a similar storyline to Ken Russell's The Devils graphically showing the disruptions to a convent by a young woman - Alucarda. Using the techniques learned from his theatrical background in the late sixties Panic theatre movement, Moctezuma builds up to a whirlwind of choas for the climactic last act of the film, the copius blood, screaming and nudity evoking a performance art piece rather than a straightforward cinema show. As intense as Texas Chainsaw Massacre, this is an intelligent, strange and shocking movie at last seeing the light of day on DVD.

A differenza di quanto indicato nella scheda dei dettagli prodotto non sono presenti i sottotitoli in inglese, ma solo l'audio inglese o spagnolo..

Bei dem Mitte der 70er jahre in Mexico gedrehten Film geht es um einen Exorzismus vor historischer Kulisse in einem Kloster irgendwo im lateinamerikanischen Nirgendwo. Um nicht zuviel über den Film zu sagen vergleiche ich mal diesen Film mit den etwa zur gleichen Zeit gedrehten "Der Exorzist" mit Linda Blair: "Alucarda" schlägt in meinem Vergleich "Der Exorzist" um Längen, weil: - "Alucarda" hat eine sehr erotische Komponente - "Alucarda" ist wesentlich blutiger, jeder Tropfen Blut ist aber gut in die Handlung eingebunden - "Alucarda" erlebt man aus der Perspektive der "Besessenen". Für mich der Hauptvorteil, das ist nicht so bieder wie aus der Perspektive des "Priesters" bei "Der Exorzist" Durchgehend strigente Handlung, super Schauspielerleistungen. Mein Lieblingshorrorfilm
