The Demons (1973)

In the throes of her final agony, surrounded by the ominous dance of scarlet flames, a vengeful and unapologetic witch condemned by the formidable Grand Inquisitor Jeffries and the cold-hearted Lady de Winter spews a final, sulfuric curse upon her tormentors. This malicious malediction sends waves of dread through the hearts of Lord and Lady de Winter, who find themselves burdened with the lethal curse that looms over their heads like a pervasive shadow. In their desperate bid to nullify the curse, they embark on a mission to trace the obscure lineage of the damned witch, focusing on her daughters, Kathleen and Margaret. These two girls, as pure as the driven snow, have been nurtured in the austere confines of the Blackmoor convent, their innocence juxtaposed against the convent's grim, stone walls. However, within the seemingly sacred sanctuary of the convent, unchecked desire and malevolent possession reign supreme. A twisted game of fate and destiny is at play, as only one daughter is the true recipient of the witch's curse and the ominous power it bestows. The question that lingers like an unsolved mystery is - which one of them is the chosen one, the true inheritor of this dark retribution?

The Demons is a horror movie featuring Anne Libert and directed by Jesús Franco.
