The Night Child aka The Cursed Medallion (Arrow Video DVD)
YOU’LL NEED MORE THAN AN EXORCIST TO SAVE THE NIGHT CHILD
When a documentarian delves into the dark world of satanic art for a new film, he unearths a disturbing painting that leads him into a world of post-
Exorcist Italo-Horror where cursed medallions, possessed children and the overwhelming power of the dark lord converge to create a visually stunning and wildly eccentric exploitation classic from Massimo Dallamano (
Venus in Furs,
What Have You Done With Solange?)
With Italian cult cinema child star Nicoletta Elmi (
Who Saw Her Die?,
A Bay of Blood) as the motherless, demon-demented daughter and
Zombie Flesh Eaters’ Richard Johnson as the filmmaker searching for the evil truth,
The Night Child is a perfect example of expertly shot, beautifully crafted B-cinema.
See a young girl descend into the hellish pit of demonic possession in
The Night Child, a textbook example of 70s euro-horror from an Italian exploitation master.
