Curse Of The Dog God - 1977 - 6/10
AKA - Inugami no Tatari // 犬神の悪霊

Three men, racing down the backroads, Geiger counter suddenly clicking like mad.
So excited, they accidentally smash into a small shrine, then run down and kill a dog.
Yes, they brought this on themselves. Even though they are ignorant for a while.
Nevertheless, one marries a village girl who soon realizes her husband is under the curse.
Trying to protect him drives her insane, and she is possessed.
Above, the husband about to succumb to the intruder inhabiting his wife.
Twin evils throughout: ancient curse, modern uranium. Village superstitions, motorcycle thugs.

Necromancy - 1971 - 5/10

Frank accepts a job in isolated Lilith, dragging a reluctant Lori along.
The small town is a gated community, inhabitants mostly twenty-year-olds.
Well-garbed hippies, New Age occult dabblers.
Ruling all is Mr Cato (Orson Welles, why oh why?), pining for his dead son.
Lori, it seems has gifts: second sight, visions.
In a town full of wannabe witches, she is the genuine article.
Promising concept, poorly executed.
“Witchcraft is the only honest religion, that makes things happen now, in this life.”
