Manthast Absolutely amazing

Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

Jenna Walter The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

JoeB131 So a production company in the Philippines decides to cash in on the Exorcist craze, and makes a movie about witches and stuff. So an American Art dealer finds a picture of a 16th century witch burning where the head witch looks like his wife, and the other witches look like other women he runs into. And after some whacky encounters his wife is possessed by the witch who wants to kill him because his ancestor burned them. Or something. This movie is made on the cheap and the best thing I can say is that Selleck is swinging for the fences in his acting. The rest of the cast, American and Filipino alike, seem like they are waiting for their checks to clear. "Oh, I'm topless in this scene? Do I get paid extra for that?"

BogieandBacallfan I'd never heard of this 70's horror movie until the other night when TCM had a late night airing. I've always liked Tom Selleck and even in this effective but somewhat cheesy scare-fest he does an awesome acting job! For the time and plot, this movie does include some chilling suspense and eerie music and/or chanting--the freaky calling out of the wife's name in the middle of the night was a perfect tool to get you on the edge of your seat! However, the ending was really stupid in my opinion! I don't want to say what happens, as I don't want to really include a "spoiler." But, with all the build-up and suspense, the way the film concludes was a total let-down and ridiculous! To me no matter how awesome or superb a movie was...if the end is terrible then it ruins the rest of it as well.I would not recommend bothering with this...unless you're a die-hard Selleck fan, or a 70's cult-horror film collector (that doesn't care how films play out or end). However, if you like Selleck...stick with "Magnum, p.i.!"

Witchfinder General 666 "Daughters of Satan" is a cheesy but fun piece of low-budget occult Horror starring 27-year-old Tom Selleck in his first leading role. Directed by Hollingsworth Morse (nice name, buddy), "Daughters of Satan" was obviously shot on a very low budget, and while the plot is cheesy and messy and often lacks logic, the film is undeniably entertaining. Selleck plays the American arts expert James Robinson, who has recently moved to the Phillipines with his beautiful wife Christina (Barra Grant). In an obscure art gallery, he stumbles across a painting which shows a witch-burning in 1592 Spain. And one of the burned witches happens to be the spitting image of his wife! Fascinated with the coincidence, he buys the painting and brings it home; henceforth, mysterious things begin to happen... As mentioned above, logic isn't the strongest point of the film (why would anyone keep the painting when it's clear that it's causing trouble), and the plot is often messy. Nonetheless, this is an enjoyable film that might appeal to many of my fellow fans of low-budget Horror and Exploitation. There are some really cool scenes, in particular the sleazy opening sequence, and one fantastic creepy scene involving a painting, which I don't want to give away. Interestingly, Selleck's role here has some resemblance to the role of Magnum P.I., for which he would later get famous. Barra Grant, who plays his wife, has a very presentable rack, and the film includes a variety of eccentric characters. You haven't missed anything if you decide to skip "Daughters of Satan". However, it is definitely entertaining, and a film that most of my fellow fans of B-Movies and low-budget Horror in particular might enjoy.

wildpeace10 An evil housekeeper,the number 666 and an evil dog!is this the 1976 THE OMEN?Well,no since it was made in 1972 but you get the feeling that part of the Richard Donner film was inspired by it.While this was filmed in the philippines,it takes a very long time before a beautiful outdoor scene makes you feel that it was filmed over there since many scenes are filmed indoors.After i saw the main actress(Barra Grant) in about the film's first ten minutes,i had the urge to fast forward the whole thing since this is simply not my type of girl. But since i wanted to write a fair review ,i decided to continue watching the film at normal speed.There is a few scenes where normal people wouldn't react the way they do in this film.One example is when Selleck is threaten by a gunman.Afterwards,he enters the house and doesn't talk about it at all when he rejoins his wife.And why does Selleck want to hang the picture on the wall when her wife's first reaction is to tell him that she hates it?There is many sights of crosses(with Jesus on it) in this film. (Perhaps it's the only type of cross that you can get in the philippines!)There is one on the wall over the bed and Barra wears one in her neck for most of the film.Apparently that has the power to keep bad witch spirits away but it doesn't seem to always work!In one of the better scenes,an outside one, Barra wants to stab Selleck in the back but changes her mind when her husband hands her a cross she supposedly lost.Other good scenes are the ones that features Selleck talking of the cursed painting with a Doctor but the appearing and disappearing figures on the painting plot kinds of gets annoying after a while.The evil housekeeper is also annoying and you'd wished that Selleck would have waked up and fired her earlier. (He does but not with the energy that Peck did in THE OMEN and at this time, it's way too late.)There is like a false bad ending that turns into a good ending that returns to a bad ending in this film!!!I liked the first unhappy ending better than the last one!I agree that some unhappy endings may have a greater impact in certain horror films but i don't think that this one is properly staged to make a satisfying or powerful impact.Now some might like to know about the nutty parts of this film so here they are.1-Bad words.Very few.About three. 2-Very little gore.There is a man with a knife in him which is a little bit bloody. (The crime has already been committed.) 3-Nudity.At first there is a topless woman on a table.She has her eyes closed. Not very interesting. The second scene is when kitty tries to seduce Selleck and goes half topless. Her other breast is covered by her hair. She's just a little bit better looking than Barra face wise. (But then again,not everyone will agree since beauty is in the eye of the beholder!)This scene works because the prelude is well written as she tries very hard to seduce Selleck which isn't much interested in her.The third scene is when Barra is stripped topless and the camera returns to her breasts a few times. Barra might not have the greatest face but breasts are breasts and if you like tied women,this scene works!4-Blasphemy.Barra spitting on the cross plus a few praise the devil type of phrases.Some of words spoken by Barra aren't easily understandable. Really not my cup of tea if you know what i mean!!So i guess this film could be listed as exploitation.it's about annoying, illogical and dull here and there for 30 minutes but if this is your kind of film,you might just find something you like about it.
