British director 's adaption of 's book "The Devils of " is one of the most origional, controversial and daring films ever made. The film takes place in 17th-century France and centres on the hypocritical and licentious behaviour of debauched priest Father Urbain Grandier, brilliantly played by . The Devils Rose second plot strand involves the humpbacked nunn Sister Jeanne, played by , who, along with her fellow nuns, is obsessed with Grandier. When the nuns become seemingly possessed, disgruntled representatives of the Catholic Church and corrupt officials move in and seize their opportunity to get rid of Grandier. The film gets off to an excellent start, gradually building up the tension and highlighting the flaws within the Catholic religion. However the middle section involving the possession of the nuns is far too theatrical and over-the-top The Devils Rose the action becomes weighed down by the overbearing performance of Michael Gothard as The Devils Rose Barre and Derek Jarman's lurid sets. The final section of the film, however, is mightily impressive and well-scripted and benefits hugely from Oliver Reed's committed performance. While Vanessa Redgrave impresses in the role of Sister Jeanne this is Oliver Reed's film and a performance which proves he was a great actor and not just a great hellraiser. This film illustrates that he is easily the equal of his contemporaries including Caine, Connery, Harris and Finney. While director Ken Russell's films can The Devils Rose from the very good to the absolutely awful "The Devils" is without doubt his best. This is perfect material for Russell to work with and the The Devils Rose outlet for his unique vision. Russell was part of the new breed of controversial directors who emerged in the late s and s who courted controversy with images of sex, nudity, violence and shocking images.

Trivia Spike Milligan was originally cast as Baron The Devils Rose Laubardemont, but he was replaced when Ken Russell felt he could The Devils Rose properly convince in this straight dark role. Goofs around 1h A few scenes after Grandier has been tortured by having a spike pierced through his tongue, he is shown praying despairingly, with the camera focused on his face as shot through the mask-contraption he had worn during this ordeal. The centre of focus is his mouth and tongue. As he speaks, it can be seen that there's no wound on his tongue. Quotes Madeleine : I am a simple person I see the world as I have been taught,yet I would not be afraid to go before god with you even in our sin. Grandier : You shame me.

He booted the kickstand down and dismounted. He kept his eyes on his gun as he walked toward her. She was trying to get to it before he got to her, but her legs were mangled, maybe her spine as well. She screamed through clenched teeth as she dragged herself along the hot pavement on raw flesh and bone. Stop, he thought, just give up. It's over already. But she wouldn't stop. She hauled herself to the gun, reaching for it even as he placed his boot on it, trying to claw it free from beneath his weight. It was best, he'd learned, to make this part quick. At the sight of the sword she drew back. I had to do what I done Had to. I'm a good Christian. You hear? God, oh Jesus Christ, please save me! They all had a story, and they all wanted to be saved by Jesus. There came a swish of air, and her head rolled along The Devils Rose faded stripes of Highway An undead soul sent by the Devil to round up the damn who have found a way to escape from Hell and find their way back to the living world. He's on the trail of such of group of escapees, but one of them is different from the rest, one of them is more than just The Devils Rose damned. As Cole hunts the escapees down he is reminded of how he came to be. Of his own damnation and the sins The Devils Rose committed. As he gathers the heads of the damned, he realizes that one of them, the one who orchestrated the escape is missing. He realizes that the one called Rath was using The Devils Rose others as a diversion and has headed back into the pits of Hell. To cross the river Lethe. I killed over two thousand Christians: men, women, and children,' Rath said, speaking more to the mountain of grinning skulls and empty eye sockets than to Cole. I burned their churches, crucified their priest, raped The Devils Rose women, and fed their children to our beasts. The Devils Rose took a step into the water, watched his feet fade into the murk. Alas, I was but a small god Lethe, the rive of oblivion, where souls can be free from Hell's grasp. This is the fourth book by Brom I have read and devoured. His vision and scope of the worlds just beyond our own are dark tales of Gods once known and forgotten. Except for those terrible nights when the darkness creeps in and all our technology and modern faith can't keep the old gods at bay. These are the stories that The Devils Rose tells. Along with illustrations that would The Devils Rose Franzetta squeal. This is the better done version of those old pulp magazines like Creepy and Eerie. Brom doesn't rely on the violence and nudity The Devils Rose those pulp mags to tell his story, nor does he let it get in his way. Instead he tells a story of regret The Devils Rose longing. Both from the anti-hero and the God he chases. Both looking for their own brand of redemption and knowing in truth they may never have it. The Hell Brom paints is an underworld of depraved The Devils Rose, that leaves you sympathetic for the damned. His description and artwork work seamlessly. This is not a graphic novel. It is an illustrated novel. Like the picture books we read as children only they would never let us have one like this. Brom is a visionary, had The Devils Rose mentioned that? And the dark worlds he brings into the light will leave you wishing they had stayed hidden. But then, what is the fun in that? A good read. Dec 30, Karissa rated it really liked it. This is the The Devils Rose book I have read by Brom. The first was "The Plucker"; that was a great book and both the artwork and writing were awesome. This book wasn't written quite as well as "The Plucker" but the artwork was just as fantastic. In this book Cole hunts down escape souls for The Devils Rose he is working to get the Devil's favor so that he can rescue Rose. Only this time one of the souls he is chasing is different and it makes him start to question if the souls he hunts down really deserve what the This is the second book I have read by Brom. Only this time one of the souls he is chasing is different and it makes him start to question if the souls he hunts down really deserve what they get. The The Devils Rose in the beginning of the book was a bit awkward but as the book progressed, and Brom got into the story, the writing really improved. The artwork was astonishing as always. Brom is just an excellent artist. The story itself was interesting and engaging. Overall a wonderful book; if it hadn't been for the awkward beginning I would give it 5 stars.
