The prolific and manic Jess Franco has directed well over 200 films. Some are dire, the majority functional and a few are absolute classics of exploitation cinema. The Demons, Franco's shameless cash-in on Ken Russell's The Devils, is a true Franco masterpiece, featuring everything from torture, lesbian sex and demonic possession. The film centres on a witch who is burned at the stake by the inquisition but who, before the flames consume her, manages to curse the principal witchfinder and his minionswith dire results. What follows is a catalogue of depravity and sexual violence on a truly orgiastic scale while Franco's camera gleefully captures every perverse moment and gratuitous exposure of female flesh!

I must admit that She-Demons was a disappointment for me. Jesús Franco showed us that his style got old and exhausted quite quickly. Not to mention he decided to give this particular film almost two hours of runtime. He simply overdid it. There is nothing all that interesting in the plot that makes the film worth watching for more than an hour. There's hardly any horror, the atmosphere is lacking, the torture doesn't scare or disgust, and worst of all, the eroticism is superficial, even though the women are beautiful. ()
Pezones, castores y traseros con celulitis. Tortura inquisitorial. El enviado de Satanás con un vestido y legging rojo, violando por detrás a la protagonista rubia (la única que no tiene celulitis). Todo en los castillos y en los patios históricos, en trajes de la época de la Dama de Čachtice. Una película erótica de clase B de dos horas que pretende ser seria. Como telenovela es de reír, pero está más del lado de las brujas sexys que de los inquisidores sádicos y las inquisidoras lesbianas, barajando las cartas entre ellos de una manera interesante. Y con eso mantiene la diversión del placer culpable hasta el último minuto, por lo menos en mi caso. ()
