Succubus (film)

Succubus German Necronomicon Getrumte Snden is a 1968 West German horror film directed by Jess Franco. The original German title translates as Necronomicon Dreamt Sin. The film stars Janine Reynaud as Lorna Green, a performer a nightclub who performs acts that involve erotically charged sadomasochistic murders. It is suggested that Lorna may be under mind control by a man who might be Satan Michel Lemoine which draws her to a night in the future when she actually begins to kill people.

After working on several productions in Spain, director Jess Franco sought out financial backing in Germany. Franco became frustrated with the production rules and censorship in Spain, stating that even if he had an entirely Spanish crew, he would have to film in Spain to receive the coproduction funding, and that for Succubus, the censors had taken their red pen and crossed everything out, even the title. The title for the film was found at the home of Pier A. Caminnecci where Franco found a book titled Necronomicon. The story was only three pages long, so Franco fused the story with a previous film script he had worked on.After finishing work on his film Lucky, the Inscrutable, he went to production manager KarlHeinz Mannchen with an eightpage script for Succubus. After securing funding, model Janine Reynaud was cast in the film after being introduced to Franco by his friend actor Michel Lemoine. ........
