The Pit and the Pendulum (1991)

Edgar Allen Poe's horror tale The Pit and the Pendulum (1990) comes to the screen with the full—and wholly unexpected—power of the Spanish Inquisition. Rona De Ricci is accused of being one of the Devil's minion, and in a scene that will raise the unholy heat in your pants, she is stripped naked before Lance Henrikson as Tomas Torquemada, the infamous head of the Inquisition. If evil looks that good, then give Mr. Skin a one-way ticket to Hades! But Henrikson is a bit uptight. He prays on broken glass, wears a belt of sharp nails, and sleeps beneath a canopy of swords hanging from threads so God can cut him down if he has any immoral thoughts. He even cuts poor Rona's tongue out. No French kisses for this Spanish bull.
