Alucarda Cards
Description: Alucarda is a 1977 English-language Mexican supernatural horror film that is a loose adaptation of the 1872 Gothic novella. The story follows a young girl's arrival at a convent after the death of her parents. Their deaths are the beginning of a series of events that unleash an evil presence on the girl and her mysterious new friend, an enigmatic figure known as Alucarda. Demonic possession, Satan worship, vampirism, and yes, even some nunsploitation follows. Though a Mexican production, the film was shot in English. Internationally, it was released under several alternate titles, including 'Innocents from Hell' and 'Sisters of Satan.' The film has been noted by film scholars for its themes regarding national tradition versus modernity.
