Jean Duprey and his wife Danielle are famous journalists with a special interest in unsolved mysteries. They receive a request of help by an old noble friend of Jean, Guillaume de Saint Lambert, who is about to die by an unknown illness. He lives, obviously, in ancient castle with his wife and the servants. Soon Duprey discover that his friend's wife is a witch (originally burnt in the 18th century) and that Guillaume is under her wicked influence. She practices the art of black magic and by making die slowly all members of the Saint Lambert family she gains eternal beauty. When Duprey breaks the marble casket containing the ashes of the witch she shows her real aspect before dying.
Amateur detective Jean Dupris (Pierre Brice) is summoned to the home of his friend Gil. Not long after Dupris and his wife (Patrizia Viotti) arrive Gil dies in his sleep. Gil's companion turns out to be a witch who kidnaps women, engages them in sex orgies and then kills them when she's through. Dupris decides to hang around and help solve these range murders. Unfortunately he doesn't notice that his wife has fallen under the control of the lesbian witch, who enjoys scratching female breasts. "Night of the Damned" is a pretty sleazy Italian Gothic horror with beautiful women and a good amount of nudity. The action is pretty slow and there is not much suspense, but if you are into Italian horror give this one a chance. 7 out of 10.
