The Grapes of Death1978
“When the wine flows, the terror begins…”
Directed by Jean Rollin
The premise
A young woman discovers that the pesticide being sprayed on vineyards is turning people into murderous lunatics.
Horror Vault's take
In the sunlit French countryside, a young woman's peaceful journey turns into a waking nightmare when she discovers that something is hideously wrong with the locals. A toxic pesticide used on the region's vineyards is unleashing a wave of grotesque, murderous violence from people who are no longer quite human. Director Jean Rollin trades his usual gothic atmosphere for something rawer and more grounded, delivering a relentless chase through vineyards and villages. It stands as one of French horror cinema's most provocative and gore-drenched entries of the 1970s.
