"The Satanist" from 1968, directed by Zoltan G. Spencer, is an obscure sexploitation film that has garnered attention partly due to its long period of being lost, only to resurface in 2014. The film revolves around a young couple whose marriage is threatened by an attractive female occultist who introduces them to a world of drugs, sex, and satanic rituals. The narrative is thin, serving more as a vehicle for the occult imagery and nudity rather than a complex storyline. The film explores themes of satanism and the occult, which was relatively groundbreaking for its time in sexploitation cinema, predating other films with similar themes. However, the plot is quite straightforward, focusing heavily on the introduction and subsequent engagement with the satanic cult, rather than deep narrative development.The direction by Zoltan G. Spencer, known for his work in low-budget sexploitation, follows a pattern of these films, where the emphasis is more on the sensational elements rather than acting prowess or character development. The film notably includes a lot of nudity, which was the main attraction of sexploitation films during that era, but lacks explicit content by modern standards.
