Man tries to find his brother who may have gotten himself mixed up with witches and witchcraft. Opening scenes of what appears to be an sadomasochistic orgy is what you'll remember about this ultimately dull uncredited HP Lovecraft adaption. Barbra Steel in green makeup and wild head dress and a leather clad dominatrix are the the shots often used as stills from the film for good reason, they are what you remember. I put the film in last night and started to watch it and realized ten minutes in that I had seen it before and had been bored silly by it every time I tried to get through it. I scanned through it to make sure I was remembering it right and realized I was repeating myself. A disappointment. Sure it has Steele, Christopher Lee and Boris Karloff, but its wholly unremarkable with some explanations that are less then satisfying.
