(aka "The Coming of Sin")
Directed by José Ramón Larraz
Spain 1978
One of the most underrated and oft-neglected genre filmmakers of his generation,
Spanish-born director José Ramón Larraz (Symptoms)
finally receives his due with this collection of his work, the first of its
kind, bringing together a fascinating cross-section of films from the first half
of his lengthy cinematic career. *** A solitary female artist takes in a young gypsy girl, who suffers from recurring nightmares where she is accosted by a man on horseback. As the relationship between the two women gets closer and closer, the mysterious horseman will invade their lives. This dark drama with powerful oneiric images is one of the most bizarre by José Ramón Larraz, one which we can now discover in its fabulous new restored version.
