[vc_row][vc_column width=”3\/4″][vc_column_text]The film “The Torture Chamber of Dr. Sadism<\/strong>” (German title: “Die Schlangengrube und das Pendel<\/strong>“) is available from today on the label “M-Square Pictures<\/strong>” on Blu-Ray, DVD and digitally. The film was outstandingly cast in 1967 with Lex Barker<\/strong> (Old Shatterhand<\/strong>), Karin Dor<\/strong> (Edgar Wallace movies<\/strong>) and Christopher Lee<\/strong> (Dracula<\/strong>) and is still one of the most sought-after films from this period. The director was the famous Austrian Harald Reinl<\/strong>, who created absolute milestones with “Winnetou 1-3<\/strong>“, “Schatz im Silbersee<\/strong>” or various Edgar Wallace<\/strong> films such as “The Frog with the Mask<\/strong>” or the war film “U 47 – Kapit\u00e4nleutnant Prien<\/strong>“. One of the most legendary horror classics in German film history appears for the first time completely digitally revised by moviemax and re-scanned in HD on DVD and Blu-Ray! After the limited Mediabooks, the normal versions are now also available.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]The film begins in 1801. Frederick Count Regula (Christopher Lee<\/strong>) is quartered for the murder of twelve virgins.\u00a0Many years later the lawyer Roger Mont-Elise (Lex Barker<\/strong>) and the attractive baroness Lilian von Brabant (Karin Dor<\/strong>) received an invitation to the infamous Sander Valley. The drive through ghostly forests takes you directly into the ruins of Count Regula\u2019s castle and his torture chamber. Nobody can yet suspect that the count\u2019s resurrection is being prepared here, but for this he still needs the blood of a thirteenth virgin. While Regula and Anatol try to frighten Lilian to death with snakes and other horrible monsters, Roger is facing execution with a razor-sharp pendulum\u2026<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][vc_single_image image=”49975″ img_size=”full” onclick=”link_image”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

The idea of making a\u00a0Edgar Allan Poe<\/strong>\u00a0film came to\u00a0Harald Reinl<\/strong>\u00a0through the success of\u00a0Roger Corman<\/strong>\u2018s films \u201eThe Fall of the House of Usher<\/strong>\u201c, \u201ePit and the Pendulum<\/strong>\u201c and \u201eThe Masque of the Red Death<\/strong>\u201c. However, the plan was not to make a faithful film version of\u00a0Edgar Allan Poe<\/strong>\u2018s story \u2018The Pit and the Pendulum<\/strong>\u2018. Screenwriter\u00a0Manfred R. K\u00f6hler<\/strong>\u2018s treatment of the original story was therefore very carefree and generous.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
