        • Alternate versions
          The 1994 UK Redemption video release was cut by 2 minutes 29 secs by the BBFC to heavily edit shots of cannibalism, closeups of a woman's slashed stomach and a shot of a woman with a knife in her throat. The 2007 Redemption DVD is fully uncut.

        Childhood Vow...

        After a convenient toxic waste spill in a crypt, the titular terror rises from her grave. Her name is Catherine (Francoise Blanchard), and she starts killing people right away with her long, sharp fingernails. Finding her ancestral castle occupied by strangers, Catherine engages in grisly mayhem. When Catherine's sister Helene (Marina Pierro) arrives, things only get worse.

        THE LIVING DEAD GIRL is a horror film from Director Jean Rollin, about life, death, and the hideous state in between. Catherine is every bit as pitiable as she is terrifying. Her shenanigans lead up to a grabber of a finale! Of course, being a Rollin film, the requisite nudity is also present. A twisted, macabre classic...
