About A Virgin Among the Living Dead
A girl arrives from London to visit her estranged relatives in a remote castle for the reading of her father's will. After a while she discovers that they are all in fact dead and her decision to live with them turns into a nightmare. Unable to leave she's drawn into a macabre underworld through visions of nude satanic rituals and her own impending sacrifice.
Directed by Jesús Franco, A Virgin Among the Living Dead leans on a strong ensemble — Christina von Blanc, Carmen Yazalde, Rosa Palomar — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about horror titles of 1973.
