'Asylum of Satan' (1971) - Lovely Lucina Martin suspects there's
something wrong with the rest home where she's recovering from a nervous
breakdown. Therapy includes covering a patient in bugs, setting another on fire,
and tossing a third into a pool full of snakes. Then there's the hatchet-faced
ghoul running around upstairs and a grinning demon lurking in the basement.
Which is why Lucina believes that this is not a tranquil hospital but actually
an Asylum of Satan! The first feature from William Girdler, director of
'Three on a Meathook' and 'The Manitou,' is fun, gory
drive-in fare direct from Jefferson County, Kentucky.
'Satan's Children' (1974) - Runaway teen Bobby is given shelter by
a friendly cult of Satanists, but his presence--and questionable
sexuality--leads to conflicts within Satan's Children, especially after a
lesbian member is damned to Hell. But Bobby proves to be one sick puppy, which
he demonstrates in ways that would even make the devil smile. So hilarious,
homophobic, and just plain insane, you'd think Lucifer himself was personally
involved!
