Scary Sexy: 6 Films by Jean Rollin

Dreamlike, hauntingly atmospheric visions of sex, blood, and existential ennui, the poetic-erotic fantasies of French art-horror master Jean Rollin exist on a hypnotic wavelength all their own. Frequently employing the figure of the female, often lesbian, vampire as a vessel for Rollin’s symbol-laden explorations of desire, outsiderhood, and mortality, these films—including revered cult works like Requiem for a Vampire , Fascination , and The Living Dead Girl —drift languorously through dark forests, decaying castles, and desolate graveyards, melancholic landscapes suffused with a sublimely eerie beauty.
