Black Candles (1980)

How it was possible for someone just seven years after making Vampyres - one of the most interesting European horror movies of the Seventies - to already have sunk as low as this satanists softcore epic is nearly inexplicable.
Of course, there were rapidly shrinking possibilities for the films of people like director Jose Ramon Larraz to actually find an audience, but this neither explains the absence of visual inventiveness nor the presence of goat sex.
