Amazon.com:
This black and white horror movie, filmed in California but with dialogue in Esperanto, is unlike anything you've ever seen. Incubus inverts the usual moral battle of a good person tempted by evil. When a headstrong, blond, young succubus named Kia (Allyson Ames) becomes bored with luring the corrupt and sinful to their ultimate demise, she decides she's going to tackle a truly good man (in the form of a very young William Shatner, of all people). An older, wiser succubus warns Kia that the good have an uncanny power called love, but Kia recklessly dives in, confident in her seductive powers--until she finds herself spiritually defiled by goodness and must summon an incubus (Milos Milos) to enact revenge. The pacing is slow but eerily effective, as are the stark cinematography and low-budget effects. Shatner's intonations are just as distinctive in Esperanto as in English, but that only adds to the movie's overall stylization. Incubus shares a kinship with Carnival of Souls, another low-budget black and white horror film that has more going on than buckets of gore. Though Incubus would seem to be heavily influenced by Ingmar Bergman, director Leslie Stevens has said he was more affected by Japanese samurai films. A strikingly unique and beautifully creepy film. --Bret Fetzer

This was a simple, odd but thoroughly spellbinding little film. Leslie Stevens [director], Conrad Hall [cinematography] and Dominic Frontiere [music] of OUTER LIMITS [1963-1965] fame are behind this one. It sort of plays out like an extended Outer Limits episode. All about a succubus [female demon who preys upon men] who gets tired of corrupting "tainted" or 'bad' guys and attempts to seduce a 'good' guy, Marc, played by William Shatner. The dialogue is in the artificial constructed language of esperanto ... Read More

Incubus
This movie was very well done. I was interested primarily because it's entirely spoken in Esperanto, but the pronounciations are off. Still, it was a beautifully done black and white movie, if "beautiful" can be used to describe a horror flick. The film quality was good, not fuzzy, and the audio was clear.

I won't get into the plot since I feel that the Amazon editorial review up top does a fine job of summing it up. But in a nutshell, this film is about "Good corrupting Evil" instead of the other way around which has become cliche.
The film's in black in white, which actually adds to the atmosphere.
The language spoken is Esperanto, which kinda/sorta/not really sounds like Spanish. I've just shown an interest in the language and I was able to pick up a few words here and there. ... Read More

I have to admit that I bought this mainly because of the dialogue in Esperanto. Although I would not call myself an Esperantist, I know the language quite well and take a general interest in constructed languages, and I think Esperantists are far too critical of this movie. Sure, a lot of the dialogue is poorly pronounced, but William Shatner and one or two others manage the language quite well, and I cannot understand why a dedicated Esperantist would not at least want the movie in his collection. As fantasy ... Read More

If you enjoyed the 60s TV series THE OUTER LIMITS, then you'll probably get a kick out of this film. This movie has the same feel of the best of the episodes of OL. There's a constant feeling of dread, as if the hand of Fate is always about to fall upon the various characters who move across the screen. The cinematogaphy is shadowed enough through the use of black and white photogrpahy to lend a further air of impending doom to the affairs.
Spoken entirely in Esparanto (with English sub-titles), the ... Read More
