Film Synopsis
The House of Exorcism (1975) follows a woman who collapses during a visit to a Spanish town and becomes possessed by a demonic force linked to a decaying mansion filled with spectral figures from another time. As a priest battles to save her soul, past sins and infernal visions intertwine in a nightmarish struggle between faith and corruption. This re-edited fusion of horror and possession themes blends supernatural terror and surreal imagery in a lurid reworking of Lisa and the Devil (1973).
