Programmer's Pick

Sexcula delivers on its reputation for boundary-pushing oddities, gleefully blending mad science, gothic kink, and Canadian camp. This is what happens when sexploitation, horror, and sci-fi get locked in a mansion together and nobody bothers to call the neighbors.

Overview

Sexcula is a skin flick with a reputation for being a long-lost cult item, shot in Vancouver and only screened once before vanishing for decades. It's a campy, erotic horror-comedy hybrid featuring a Marilyn Chambers lookalike in dual roles: the uninhibited Countess Sexcula and a lustful bride. The film follows a young woman who inherits a mansion and uncovers a centuries-old diary chronicling Dr. Fellatingstein’s bizarre quest to engineer a man capable of satisfying endless desires. When that experiment falls flat, she enlists the help of her enigmatic relative, Countess Sexcula. The movie is notorious for its relentless nudity, unapologetic sexuality, and surreal set pieces, including a naked picnic and a "girl-on-gorilla" scene, all wrapped in gothic and mad-scientist trappings.
