Ta paidiá tou Diavólou

Nico Mastorakis was inspired to make this film after seeing द टेक्सास चेनसॉ मैसकर (1974). He noticed how much money that film made, and decided to make a more violent and perverse film in order to make even more money.

The original UK cinema version (released as "A Craving For Lust") was heavily cut by 13 minutes by the BBFC and the film later ended up on the DPP 74 list of video nasties. The initial 1987 video release (now retitled "Psychic Killer II" despite having no connection with the previous film of that title) had been edited by the distributors before submission to remove the original UK cinema cuts but was rejected by the BBFC. The 2002 DVD release by Vipco was cut by 4 minutes 9 secs to edit the rape scenes, a woman's face being burned with a lit aerosol, a repeated kicking, a urination scene, and shots of a sickle blade in a woman's bare breast. The director's interview extra on the DVD was also cut by 54 secs by the BBFC with the same edits to the sickle, aerosol and kicking scenes. All the cuts were fully waived in 2010 for the 2011 Arrow DVD.
