Whatever beauty or gothic pleasures the poem upon

Whatever beauty or gothic pleasures the poem upon which The Iron Rose is based possesses, all that is on display here is tedium.

Interesting flick here. The story involves a young

Interesting flick here. The story involves a young couple portrayed by the very lovely Francoise Pascal and a gentleman named Hugues Quester. The two young lovers wander from railroad tracks to somehow ending up in a local cemetery. Quester than proceeds to convince Pascal to have sex in one of the underground crypts during the day while a couple of people are walking about in the cemetery including a clown (i may have to watch this again to see what the symbolism is if any regarding the clown). The couple loses track of time and darkness falls to which they can no longer find the path out of the cemetery and soon the gentleman is forced to try and keep Pascal calm and from freaking out. Unlike most sexploitation movies of this era and most certainly different for this director as well there are no ghosts, vampires, zombies, or the like wandering through the cemetery. This is more of a internal doom and mental breakdown styled movie where the atmosphere of dread and fear become the culprit. As the movie plogs along the tables are soon turned to where Pascal is now becoming the calm and collected of the two while the young man is starting to lose his shit and have a nervous breakdown. In fact, Pascal is becoming too calm almost to the point of a mask of morbidity and they again start to make out in a open grave surrounded by human remains and bones. The girl continues to slip to a point to where she is starting to believe that she is somehow communicating with the dead and the young man with her is becoming increasingly concerned for her well being. The movie ends dreadfully with what i perceive as a sense of frustration as a viewer. But i think a lot of that has to do with my attraction to Pascal. Its been a long time since a woman on screen who is basically doing what amounts to less than a softcore movie that can get me all hot and bothered. The actress is amazingly beautiful and she excells in captivating the sexuality, allure, and emotions that the director was certainly looking for when making this flick. She does a wonderful job here of conveying everything that is happening to her despite it not being very faced paced at all. I read up on this and apparently when the movie was released it was not received well and while only having 5 or so reviews on RT it rates 100% by those critics even though the audience only gives it a 47% overall. The basic understanding is this has somehow gained a bit of a cult following and a new found respect years after its release and i can see why. This wouldnt be a film i would watch over and over but i did enjoy the interesting take on the macabre and certainly recommend it for anyone who basically likes "art" films. The movie is sub titled so be warned. Still cant get over how hot she is in this flick....lmao 9/10

I was able to finally give this early

I was able to finally give this early Jean Rollin film a spin via TCM recording, and I would have to say that while I like his later dreamy erotica, this one left me a bit cold. You essentially follow a couple around for a night that they spend trapped in a graveyard, alternately screwing, arguing and generally letting the creepy surroundings drive them a bit crazy, and it ultimately doesn't add up to a whole helluva lot. Rental?
