"The Devil Inside Her" is set in England in 1826.Faith loves the gardener Joseph,but her father forbids it.Faith's sister Hope lusts after Joseph and sells her souls to the Devil to get Jospeh for herself.Zebedy Colt was the director of several truly depraved porno roughies including "Sex Wish" and "Unwilling Lovers"."The Devil Inside Her" is also a pretty twisted film with rather interesting plot.Still the hard core sex scenes in this one are slightly disappointing-they are very short and sometimes unerotic.Still there is plenty of vaginal sex with blow jobs,both female and male masturbation,lesbianism and sexual orgies.The location sets are great as they add to the overall mood of the film.So if you enjoyed "Sex Wish" or Alex De Renzy's "Femmes de Sade" you may give this porno horror a try.7 out of 10.

The Devil Inside Her mixes fantasy with porn, and the results are somewhat mixed. On the one hand, the film is completely bizarre and the sex is fairly hardcore - which is definitely to it's credit, but on the other hand, the plot sometimes gets a bit too silly, and this kind of makes the sex less easy to get on with and by the time the film reaches the halfway point, it starts to fall to bits. The plot is simple like most porn films, and focuses on two girls who are lusting over the same man. Faith is in love with Joseph, the gardener, but her father forbids it - believing the gardener not to be worthy. However, her sister Hope is also after him, and turns to the Devil to help her
It would seem that Zebedy Colt, after the fairly imaginative opening, completely ran out of ideas by the time it came to the end - as the film pretty much degenerates into a mass orgy. Not that I have a problem with that, but it does come as being a bit on the wrong side of inventive after what went before it. Overall, I can't say that I rate The Devil Inside Her as one of my favourite porn flicks; but it's not too bad overall, and some fans may get a kick out of it.

A genuinely surprising `Adults Only' horror movie, The Devil Inside Her is more likely to give potential late night viewers nightmares rather than a cheap thrill. In 1826 New England, the two daughters of a repressed farmer (played by director Colt) secretly fawn over a blonde farmhand. The farmer finds out about the farmhand's relationship with the younger daughter and fires him, then punishes the younger daughter. Meanwhile the older daughter, secretly in love with the farmhand hopes to win him back by invoking the Devil with the help of a forest witch. As befits a film of the genre the Devil magically has his wicked way with most of the cast, disguising himself as various family members (both male and female) with only Devil eye make-up to give away his identity. No wonder that `Zebedy Colt' was the well guarded pseudonym of a on/ off Broadway actor. Most of Colt's directing work sets about documenting the psychosis of the seedier side of life in the 1970's- female vigilantes in Terry's Sweet Revenge (1975) urban stalkers in Sex Wish (1975), The Devil Inside Her would appear to be his only movie with either fantasy elements or a period setting. Although it will never be mistaken for anything other than a rough around the edges exploitation movie The Devil Inside Her is well shot and the budget high enough to capture the feel of 18th century New England. All the more surprising when you realise that producer Leon De Leon is aka Leonard Kirtman, director of Carnival of Blood, surely one of the most cash strapped horror movies ever released to theatres. It's not all great though, the Devil scenes, the backbone of the film are hit and miss. The Devil's attack on the farmer's wife climaxing with him bellowing smoke, and a vision of hell that other movies daren't even think about are terrifying and hard to forget. Unfortunately for all the nice period settings Colt's monster is a creature of 1976 rather than 1826. Dressed in a dog collar, a cape and overdone face paint, for all the build up he's less the Prince of Darkness than a drunk Kiss groupie whose friends have stolen his clothes and left him in a new England field. Likewise some may gasp at the primitive special effects of people disappearing into puffs of smoke that resemble a crude magic show, but personally I think this only adds to the film's low budget charm. As wild and shocking as open minded 70's `sinema' demanded. Lovers of the most outrageous exploitation films and cult film fare should seek The Devil Inside Her out as for students of the cinema of the sensational this is great stuff, the mere curious however should run from this faster than you can say `Filth Hounds of Hades'.

Psychedelic coloured paint swirling before the camera in the title sequence seems outdated, even by 1977's standards. Sheep grazing, and cheeseball-looking font seem like something out of a sappy postcard. This is not exactly giving me very much hope for this one, either as a horror or porn flick.
In 1826, a farmer chick loves/ lusts for the family gardener. Pops is against their union, and her sister is after the guy, also. So she sells her soul to the devil, in trade for the gardener. The "devil" looks to have just returned from a KISS concert, and has not yet removed his makeup, or dog collar.
Perhaps the most interesting aspect of this yawner is that, despite being set it 1826, women wear eyeliner, men wear denim jackets and (then) modern cowboy boots, I even saw a wristwatch in one scene. Most scenes were filmed as wide angel master shots, with some zooming in and out for annoying effect.
Faith, Hope, and the devil, and nudity all together in one porno/ horror flick should have resulted in more fun than this.

One of the dirtiest, grimiest adult films of the 70's, Zebedy Colt creates the perfect story to allow his film to absolutely WALLOW in decadent perversions of every imaginable act. The young maiden who sells her soul to the Devil in exchange for the love of her sister's man, unleashes Satan into her village circa 1628, who can take on any form, and who works his way through her entire family...it has to be seen to be believed. This film is basically a string of religious blasphemies, recreating every taboo that ever existed. Bizarre, nightmarish scenes include a father stumbling upon the naked double of himself, savagely copulating with his daughter, and a scene where the devil takes on the identity of the girl's mother, who performs cunnilingus on her daughter. It will make more conservative viewers uncomfortable, and it is an uneasy watch. Whoever wrote the screenplay was very familiar with the Bible, and scenes like when the father is attacked by the hounds of Hell after breaking Satan;s spell on his daughter..are very Biblical in nature. .It's a creepy film, with a heavy atmosphere. Good performances from Zebedy and CJ Laing, and an unforgettably decadent and perverse performance by Rod Dumont, as Satan.... Dumont had an intensely sexual energy that translated well to film, and he could have been as successful as John Holmes, if he had stayed in the business. He was the perfect choice to play the Devil. "Devil Inside Her" is an undeniably well-written and well made adult feature that will be appreciated by those who like "Through the Looking Glass," a film that examines similar perversions. And don't miss Rod Dumont in Zebedy's super-creepy "Unwilling Lovers..."
