Description

Show your tits and grab that scythe because we're talking our very first Jean Rollin text: 1979's Fascination.

The lesbian vampire film is gorgeous and dreamy with several subversive twists, including the fact that this is not actually a vampire movie.

Plus: women in control, a truly shitty man, sheer veils, connections to porn and struggling with the feminist/class readings.
