about

Originally released in 1969, Giada Tarantini's "The Devil Smiles Back" is a fondly, albeit hazily, remembered cult classic, blending sex, violence, vampires & experimental imagery into a style some fans have dubbed "priestsploitation".

The film is just as often praised for its incredible music as it is for its uniquely pulp style. Composed by Massimo e Massimo collaborator Giacomo Salvi, the soundtrack marked the debut of the legendary session band I GRIZ, who quickly gained a reputation for their signature blend of psychedelic fuzz & heavy soul.

Though the full soundtrack was lost during a studio flood in 1971, two recordings survived in the form of a private-press 45 made for the promotion of the film. Long considered a "holy grail" for psych & giallo enthusiasts alike, they're now getting their long-awaited digital release exclusively through SUPERSPECTRUM.
