Queen of Evil (1964)

After Hours 105 1964

From the back:

THE PASSION OF VOODOO JUNGLES…
… In the midst of black magic where love potions, sex rites, fertility dances and a strange DEVIL WORSHIP rules over Haiti, comes beautiful Mitzi Turner, with hopes of finding a mysterious tribe. Instead, she becomes involved with domineering, powerful Laura Dixon, regarded as a Queen of Evil, believed to be the secret Voodoo Queen. In jungles as raw as the passions and perversions of its natives, sadism is a virtue. Forbidden dances with snakes. Lesbian loves on a plantation. Brutality rules supreme. A web of evil.
BLACK MAGIC… SEX… DEVIL LOVE

Fritz Leiber rated The Slithering Shadow (a.k.a. Xuthal of the Dusk) among the worst of the Conan stories, calling it “repetitious and childish, a self-vitiating brew of pseudo-science, stage illusions, and the ‘genuine’ supernatural.” However, that didn’t stop this original Margaret Brundage painting for selling for $42,000.
