The Power of Fear
December 13th, 2010 by John WolfeEver since watching Nox Arcana’s Vampire Exorcism, I’ve been very interested in finding the actual movie Nox used for their video. I finally located the entire movie yesterday on You Tube. It’s a Russian film released under the name “Vedma” but it also goes by “The Power of Fear” in English-speaking markets. While the film wasn’t too bad, I won’t go as far as actually recommending it, but I thought I’d post a link (at the bottom of this entry) just in case you might want to check it out.
The best sequences take place during the priest’s three night burial ceremony/masses within the Gothic-looking church. The burial ceremony sequences were beautifully shot and the actress playing the vampire has a very seductive air about her. She makes you wanna give into temptation, but you know it’ll be hell to pay if you do.
Here’s the film’s trailer:

And here’s a very brief plot rundown, without giving too much away in case you decide to hang in there for the whole film: A journalist becomes stranded in a strange little town where he has a violent run-in with an evil seductress. During an attempt to flee, the man disguises himself as a priest and gets roped into performing what’s purported to be an ordinary burial ceremony for a local woman.
YT user, zina1078 has uploaded the entire film (with English subtitles) as a playlist. Just a heads up — this one’s not for kids. Along with several violent (but not gory) scenes, there’s also some adult situations.
