Cérémonie sanglante (Ceremonia sangrienta) est un film d'horreur espagnol coécrit et réalisé par Jorge Grau, sorti en 1973.

Synopsis

Au début du XIX siècle en Europe Centrale, la riche comtesse hongroise Erzsébet Báthory, soucieuse de son vieillissement, fit tuer une centaine de jeunes filles vierges afin de se baigner dans leur sang, persuadée que ce rituel macabre pourrait conserver sa beauté et sa jeunesse. Alors que son époux, le marquis Karl Ziemmer, assiste à un procès posthume pour juger un médecin mort accusé d'être un vampire, sa femme remarque que quelques gouttes de sang tombées sur sa peau l'ont rajeunie. Influencée par sa suivante, la comtesse part à la quête meurtrière pour constituer sa fontaine de Jouvence afin de plaire éternellement et, surtout, cacher son vrai âge à son nouvel amoureux, un jeune soldat fou d'elle.

Married couple Anna (Gina Lollobrigida) and Marco (Jean-Louis Trintignant) run a hi-tech automated poultry farm, breeding boneless chickens. Unbeknownst to Anna, Marco is a serial killer, who lures prostitutes to motel rooms before stabbing them. The arrival of Anna's cousin Gabri (Ewa Aulin) further fragments the troubled marriage, as she and Marco begin an affair and conspire to run away together. However, Gabri is actually planning, with her husband Mondaini (Jean Sobieski), to kill Anna and frame Marco, as they have discovered Marco's secret. What Gabri and Mondaini do not know is that Marco's fixation is not with killing prostitutes, but simply hiring them to role-play murders, letting them go safely and handsomely paid. As such, when Anna's murder is discovered, the police focus their attention on Gabri, suspecting her of committing the murder out of sibling jealousy. Marco and Mondaini struggle at the farm, Marco falling into a machine used to grind chicken feed. Gabri and Mondaini are eventually arrested for Anna's murder, as the farm chickens feed on Marco's ground corpse.

1909. Une jeune fille, Greta, a un accident de carrosse. Elle porte à son cou un mystérieux médaillon inca. Un couple est témoin du drame et l'a recueille tout d'abord dans sa maison où elle recouvrera assez de mémoire pour retrouver son prénom. Puis un étrange médecin, le docteur Sturges, l'emmène dans sa clinique privée pour femmes pour la guérir. Ce dernier remarque immédiatement son bijou autour de son cou et il croit qu'elle est une zombie. Trois ans auparavant, suite à son décès, son frère bossu, Franz, lui a redonné la vie grâce à ce médaillon qu'elle doit désormais toujours porter avec elle. Revigoré par cette découverte stupéfiante sur la résurrection, le médecin relance ses recherches scientifiques en expérimentant dans les sous-sols caverneux de sa clinique où il conserve des animaux et des cadavres froidement conservés. Pendant ce temps, ses autres patientes sont perturbées par l'arrivée de Greta qui déclenche une véritable hantise, générant chez elles à la fois hallucinations, paranoïa, passion et violence. Dans les couloirs de l'établissement, un tueur invisible y sème la terreur.

Dans une ville d'Italie, des femmes de notables et de politiciens sont sauvagement assassinées par un tueur en série. Point commun de toutes les victimes : elles sont belles, se connaissent et trompent leur mari. D'abord épiées, elles sont ensuite photographiées avec leurs amants par le meurtrier qui, enfin, s'introduit chez elles pour les tuer à l'arme blanche. Avant de quitter les lieux, il laisse à côté de la victime les clichés compromettants qu'il a pris d'elles, le visage de l'amant ayant été préalablement effacé par le maniaque.

A mysterious killer is attacking women associated with a blackmail conspiracy. The deranged murderer seizes his victims by paralyzing them with a needle and then slicing open their bellies (in the same way tarantulas are killed by the black wasp or spider wasp). It is up to reluctant Inspector Tellini to find out who the killer is, before he or his girlfriend too becomes a target.

Bill Chrushank (Jeff Fahey) is a psychologist working with convicted killers at a prison in addition to teaching classes at a university. Ray, a convict who murdered his cellmate recently, tells Bill he can’t do anything to fix him. At home, Bill wonders to his wife (Kim Delaney) if this is true. He wants to be able to fix someone like Ray but in all his research and studies has never seen proof it’s possible. The next day, while driving to work, Bill gets in a horrific car accident where he loses his arm. At the hospital, Dr. Agatha Webb (Lindsay Duncan) convinces Bill’s wife to sign off on an experimental transplant surgery to give him a new arm from a donor they have waiting. Heavily drugged, Bill is wheeled into the operating room where he groggily notes several armed cops in hospital scrubs. The cops leave as soon as Dr. Webb removes the unknown donor’s head from his body at a nearby operating table. Bill awakens from the surgery and struggles to rehabilitate his new arm, which is covered in gruesome scars. One day, while struggling to lift a tiny weight, his arm makes a violent unexpected move upward. After this happens Bill makes a swift recovery and is released from the hospital. After some initial awkwardness between his wife with the new arm, he pleasures her with it and they make love. Just when it seems things are back to normal, Bill starts seeing flashes of horrible acts of murder (as if he is committing them). Next, he loses control of his new arm and cuts his face while shaving. Then at the prison, Ray freaks out seeing that Bill has the same tattoo on his wrist, which is only given to inmates on death row. Bill has a police friend scan his new fingerprints and is shocked to discover the arm came from convicted serial killer Charley Fletcher (John Walsh), who had murdered 20 people.
