          • Goofs
            Isabella would have fainted while they pounded a stake into her breast, long before only a nub protruded, yet she lives to writhe and wail throughout her extended immolation scene.
          • Quotes
            • Occultist: [reading scripture] A deceased lover can only be brought to life if she is given the heart and eyes of young virgins, until the day The Prince of Darkness plants in her womb the semen of His Immortality
