Possessed by the Night

A horror writer buys an odd looking mutant embryo creature, pickled in a jar, from a shop in Chinatown, hoping it will be a creative inspiration for his work. Instead, the odd mutation provokes a rage of violence and lust to envelop the suburban villa where the writer lives with his wife and sexy secretary.

Exploitation king Fred Olen Ray was well entrenched in his “Erotic Thriller” phase when he turned out this oddball mix of salacious schemes and demonic possession. When creatively blocked horror writer Howard (Ted Prior) buys an oversized jar containing a silly-looking pickled monster from a tiny shop in Chinatown, he quickly falls under the thing’s supernatural influence. Not only can he churn out reams of manuscript pages like never before, he also becomes more sexually aggressive — a change which troubles his reserved wife Peggy (Sandahl Bergman), particularly after the arrival of sexy blonde live-in secretary Carol (Shannon Tweed). The plot thickens when we learn that Carol is also conspiring with her partner Murray (Frank Sivero), Howard’s greedy agent, to steal his manuscript. Carol soon becomes the puppet of the thing in the jar as well, playing violent sexual games with the couple, terrorizing Peggy at every turn, and ultimately turning on Murray — leading to a hyper-violent climax which has nearly every character blasting away at his/her co-conspirator with automatic weaponry.
