Plot

The legendary Loreley has been living for centuries in a grotto beneath the river Rhein in Germany. Every night when the moon is full, she turns into a reptile-like creature craving for human blood.

Sinekatalog’s take

A Spanish gothic horror about a bloodthirsty river legend that stirs under the full moon. Atmospheric but cheap, with the expected exploitation touches. A fun fit for fans of vintage Euro-horror.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
