If it wasn't for the presence of the gorgeous Krista Nell, '70s Euro-horror The Feast of Satan wouldn't be worth the time. Nell doesn't even get naked all that often, but she is very easy on the eye and consequently makes an otherwise dull film just about bearable.
The sexy Austrian actress plays Hilda Salas, who goes looking for her sister Maria (Verónica Luján), who was found babbling like a loony in the middle of a road and who went missing from hospital soon after. Hilda's search leads her to ladies' man Dr. Tills Nescu (Espartaco Santoni), who lives in a castle with his lesbian secretary Andrea (Teresa Gimpera) and creepy manservant Brito (Gene Reyes). After spending time in the company of Nescu, Hilda begins to fall for him, but doesn't realise that the man is a Satanist who plans to put her under the influence of his occult force and add her to his collection of women.
A mediocre plot and lacklustre direction do little to distinguish this movie, but director José María Elorrieta wisely makes the most of his beautiful star, putting her in several skimpy outfits, occasionally getting her to show a little T&A. As far as the horror is concerned, the film is extremely light on chills or scares, more likely to have the viewer nodding off at times instead of giving them sleepless nights. Try to stay awake though, otherwise you might miss the hilarious final act in which all the villains die and Hilda goes the same way as her sister.
