La Terrificante Notte Del Demonio
*Limited edition of 300 copies.* Directed by Patrice Romme, The Devil's Nightmare was an Italian-Belgian production and featured main performers Jean Servais alongside a sensual Erika Blanc; also worthy of note is the disturbing presence of the graceful and filiform silhouette of Daniel Emilfork in the role of Satan.

It is the music of M…

Contamination
