Wiki.
Tragic Ceremony (Italian: Estratto dagli archivi segreti della polizia di una capitale europea - lit. Extracted from the Secret Police Archives of a European Capital, Spanish: Trágica ceremonia en villa Alexander) is a 1972 horror film directed by Riccardo Freda (credited as Robert Hampton) and starring Camille Keaton, Tony Isbert, and Máximo Valverde. Its plot follows a group of young people who find themselves haunted in the hours after witnessing a black mass while lodging at a remote estate during a rainstorm.
The film received a limited theatrical release in Italy on 20 December 1972. In 2004 it was restored and shown as part of the retrospective "Storia Segreta del Cinema Italiano: Italian Kings of the Bs" at the 61st Venice International Film Festival. The film was never dubbed in English and it's distributed worldwide by Variety Distribution.
