A thief on the run breaks into an eerie castle and takes its two frightened chambermaids hostage. However, as night begins to fall, the criminal begins to suspects that the women are hiding a sinister secret. Erotic, elegantly crafted, and brimming with some of the most unforgettable images in his filmography, Fascination embodies French director Jean Rollin at his very best.
