Directed by Dennison Ramalho, who wrote Embodiment of Evil, this is the tale of Filho (Everaldo Pontes), a man caught between his love for his pious mother and his overwhelming lust for Formosa (Débora Muniz), who has given her soul to Satan and wants him to join her as she leaves behind their small town. If only his mother would let him date. Or die. Probably just die, if Formosa has her wish.

She ends up lying with another man while another watches, so Filho busts in with a machete. Instead of killing her, she goes full possessed and demands the heart of his mother. As you can see from Ramalho having worked with Coffin Joe, he knows how to get to the filthy bloody beating balls and heart of Brazilian horror. Nudity, demons, gore, all shot on film, all making me wish that this was longer than it is. Now I have to hunt down more of his films. This was totally up my alley and I want Severin to just release whatever else this man has made.

Love from Mother Only is part of the new Severin box set, All the Haunts Be Ours Volume 2.

You can order this set from Severin.
