Originally released in the US in heavily cut form as THE TEMPTER, THE ANTICHRIST is an Italian EXORCIST knockoff that actually brings some originality and style to the demonic possession sub-genre that quickly wore itself out. Carla Gravina stars as Ippolita, a beautiful but crippled young woman who is paralyzed from the waist down. When placed under hypnosis to determine the nature of her paralysis, bizarre visions of satanic rites begin to plague Ippolita, who begins to remember a past life as a heretic witch. Soon Ippolita is walking again, but she has turned into a murderous seductress who could become the host for the devil himself, leading to the inevitable attempt at exorcism by a wise monk. [More]
