"SUCCUBUS" 1967  Rated X   Movie Radio Spots,  7 inch  45 rpm  2 - 30 second spots
The record and label look great, plays very well. First spot is a male announcer, 2nd is female.  They spell out the title, define Succubus and talk about the film. There is no rating tag of any kind on these spots.  The movie was banned in several European countries and given an X rating in the US.  The lack of a rating on the spots was in the hope of getting the commercials played on radio stations that normally would have refused them.
Succubus (German: Necronomicon - Geträumte Sünden) is a 1968 West German horror film directed by Jesús 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 dream-figures, dancing midgets, bizarre S&M games and erotically charged sadomasochistic murders. It is suggested that Lorna may be under mind control by a man who might be actually be Satan (Michel Lemoine) which draws her to a night in the future when she actually begins to kill people.
Succubus was released in West Germany on April 19, 1968 and was a financial success.  The film was later released in the United States under the title Succubus.  To promote the film, a phone number was offered for audience members who did not know what the title succubus meant.  The film was shown as Fantastic Fest in 2009.  The print of the film shown was borrowed from American director Quentin Tarantino.
In 1968, Vincent Canby wrote a review in the New York Times, noting that the film could not decide if it wanted "to be a bare-breasted exploitation movie or a nice, erotic horror story about a demented lady of bizarre sexual tastes" referring to the film as "being a bit of a drag".  In a review for the Umberto Lenzi film Orgasmo, Roger Ebert critiqued Succubus as one of the worst films of the year, referring to it as "a flat-out bomb. It left you stunned and reeling. There was literally nothing of worth in it.  Even the girl was ugly." Poster IS NOT Included
