Latin American Horror Double Bill: ✝️ Satanico Pandemonium + Embrujada 😈
 
Cinema Mentiré and Category H join for the first time ❤️🔥 to bring a voracious and lusty Latin American double bill at the Rio Cinema: nunsploitation Satánico Pandemonium + sexploitation Embrujada, with the iconic Isabel “Coca” Sarli.
Why is it that when a woman crosses paths with Evil, she always ends up a lesbian, a pervert, and flashing her body at every opportunity? Latin American cult cinema has long shown that so-called “pure” women, bound by repression, are ripe for corruption, and these two films take that to delirious extremes.
Let’s reclaim the body and desire in this very sexy evening!

SATANICO PANDEMONIUM
Dir. Gilberto Martínez Solares, Mexico, 1975, 87min.
From Bride of Christ to Slave of Satan! A legendary piece of nunsploitation cinema follows Sister María, a devoted bride of Christ, whose chance encounter with Satan unleashes a spiral of lust, blasphemy, and blood. Her desires spread through the convent like wildfire, leaving nothing sacred untouched.
Dripping with surreal eroticism and violent delirium, directed by award-winning director Gilberto Martínez Solares, Satánico Pandemonium delivers unforgettable imagery, mesmerising cinematography, and a riot of colour that makes its sacrilegious spectacle impossible to forget.

EMBRUJADA
Dir. Armando Bó, Argentina, 1976, 79min.
Embrujada follows Ansisé (the one and only Isabel Sarli), a woman consumed by her desire to become a mother, which her wealthy husband, a timber magnate, cannot fulfil. Left with no other option, she takes desperate measures: to work in a brothel and seek intimacy with a young employee of her husband. But everything changes after a swim in the river, where she is possessed by the Pombero, a spirit from Guaraní folklore that haunts the Misiones jungle.
Directed by legendary Argentinian filmmaker Armando Bo, starring his muse, sexploitation icon and inspiration to John Waters, la “Coca” Sarli, Embrujada is a tale of female desire pushed to extremes. Sitting at the intersection of folklore and sexploitation, this is a rare opportunity to see Sarli’s magnetic presence on the big screen.
