Ghost Galleon

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 26, 2013

Verified Purchase

This is a somewhat uncharacteristic Jean Rollin film, at least in terms of subject matter. There are no introspective vampires to be found here at all - this is essentially a ghostly rape-revenge film. Rollin's trademark imagery and moody atmosphere can still be found here though, so if you're in the mood for such, jump in.
The plot concerns a foursome of island-dwelling pirates who lure ships to destruction on the rocky coast of their home. Two young women who survive a wreck are raped and killed by the gang, their bodies left to the sea. But the girls return (or the spirits of the girls?) and wreak a fitting vengeance upon their killers - thanks to a pact with a devil. Mayhem, piratey surliness, copious nudity and female clowns (!) ensue. Avast, mateys!.
The Blu-ray looks good but not great, just like most of these Redemption/Kino Lorber releases. There's a little dirt, some print damage and occasional issues with hue and tone, but that's not too surprising considering the age and origin of the film. The audio has a slight but bearable hiss. Extras include a brief Rollin introduction, shipwreck footage outtakes, two overly-indulgent sex scenes, brief chats with long-time Rollin assistant Natalie Perrey and genre writer Jean-Pierre Bouyxou, as well as a Redemption trailer compile (eight trailers in total).
I admired Roliin for his ability to keep making movies under trying circumstances (i.e. without any money), and it is true that he had a signature style and something to say as a director. This one is a little left of centre - good enough but compromised by commercial requirements. In the main though, I feel that Rollin's horror films lacked depth. They were ethereal and moody, but not scary. Surrealistic meditations on beauty and oblivion, certainly - but the fright component was absent. Today, this movie seem like a weird incarnation from a forgotten age of euro-cult cinema. Something like a ghost, perhaps?

Pen Name

French film about a murderous band of brigands being avenged by their victims.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 31, 2020

Verified Purchase

First of all, this film is in French. You need to read the subtitles to follow the hot mess of a story. A band of four murderous rogues, including a beautiful woman named Tina (Joëlle Coeur), encounter two very pretty young blonde girls (Lieva Lone & Patricia Hermenier) struggling to get ashore on a lonesome stretch of beach following an apparent shipwreck. Anyway, after needlessly assaulting the two innocent girls, the rogues leave them both for dead. Except that they're not. Later, the bad guys all return to finish them off, because they're somehow being haunted by them. The two girls hold no power of any kind, but are nonetheless able to wrestle Tina to the ground, despite her being armed with a gun. The girls then flee into some supposedly haunted ruins. There, they meet a red clown who takes them to meet a guy who looks just like Rasputin. The bad guys all know that something evil lurks in the ruins, and are hesitant to follow. Could it be the devil? Anyway, we watch as the two pretty girls then get naked and stroll about the place, which was quite nice! We then discover that the devil dresses like a pimp who works for the circus. What a WEIRD, poorly written film!

Surreal French Horror Tale, As Seen Through Jean Rollin's Eyes...

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 11, 2010

Verified Purchase

Jean Rollin makes movies that perplex 'movie viewers' - his films are always poetically surreal, hypnotic, absorbing, enchanting and hallucinatory, and almost never have a coherent storyline. This frustrates and alienates a good deal of viewers, while attracting others. His flix are about dream-like imagery unfolding, cascading in waves, nightmarish and bizarre. He's done away with the notion of a narrative or a linear storyline in favor of the visuals allowing the viewer to interpret as the viewer sees fit. But it's not traditional horror. Highly unconventional, I understand why most people don't enjoy his movies as well as why others are attracted to them. I've seen almost all of his flix and find something worthwhile in most of them while my wife hates them. Different strokes...

The other reviewer is too harsh on this film, expecting gore and nudity to suffice as entertainment. Don't get me wrong, I love exploitation in all its forms, but am one of the few who enjoys an Art House flick as well, and if we can incorporate both in one film, I'm in heaven, while most of my exploitation brethren are bitchin' and moanin'. There's enough nudity to keep most interested, especially the scene where the female leader of the vulgar ship wreckers masturbates on the beach while watching her cruel and sadistic followers brutally rape and kill two girls who re-emerge later on as spectres after making a pact with the devil. Have I got your attention yet?

Thirty minute film crammed into 100 minutes

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 13, 2016

Verified Purchase

Whenever I watch a Rollin film, I ask myself, "Was this a deeply meaningful work of cinema replete with symbolism exploring the human condition, or was this a pretentious, stream-of-consciousness vehicle for exploitative, gratuitous nudity and violence?" This film falls into the latter category. SPOILER ALERT. Sort of. The film opens with an introduction of the main characters. Why, I don't know. We then are treated to an extended scene in which two young shipwreck survivors are sexually assaulted on the beach. In the middle third of the film Rollin introduces a variety of characters, plot elements, and (admittedly) interesting cinematography, none of which have any bearing whatsoever upon the outcome of the film. At this point it is as if Rollin threw up his hands and said, "What the hell, let's go back to the beach and rape the girls some more." Thus the film ends exactly where it began. Other reviewers call this film "surreal." My take is that Rollin had a story in mind but simply gave up on the plot halfway through. So if you are a Rollin fan, it may be worth a viewing, otherwise give it a pass.

More For Fans

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on January 12, 2011

Verified Purchase

I must admit I quite liked this, but if you are not a fan or haven't seen a film of the late Rollin before, then you may wonder what you have let yourself in for. On the face of it this is a story of Wreckers, those people who lured unsuspecting sailing vessels to their destruction so that they could obtain goods washed ashore. One night time when a gang are plying their nefarious deeds they come across two young women looking for help, but instead this gang decide to rape them and try to kill them.

With the captain of this group starting to have feelings of guilt, and other members of the team wanting to be in charge, or just wanting more mayhem, things start to slowly disintegrate. With the two women surviving their ordeal it is up to the group to finish off what they started for their own protection, but the girls strike a deal with a demon to wreak revenge.

The actual plot is a good one, and could be made into a good novel, however with bad acting and shot on a low budget this becomes rather farcical. Also some people may be put off by the amount of surreal imagery. Ultimately the only character you can relate to on a more deeper level is the demon.

Alas, like with other Rollin films where you actually get an interview with the man himself, there isn't one available on this. You should also be advised that there is some nudity here.
