In the end it becomes an obsession for him, too. Corso is a cynic and only realize the true significance of the "Nine gates" as he research for Balkan's assignment. Only three copies survived his torture and eventual burning at a stake.It is of these volumes that Balkan speaks of in the film. Torchia deliberately hid the true knowledge of the "Delomelanicon" in three variations of his book-a measure to weed out the lamebrains who read the book "just for a Sunday evening".
for making a truly enjoyable film.(and that's something considering the kind of drivel that is available for our entertainment these days!) For those who keep moaning about being left-out of the ending or the meaning of the film-stick to your Disney's Classics or else grow up, read more books and be more imaginative! These people probably need a on-line walkthrough to go to their own toilet and cant appreciate a little mystery or enigma! Let's face it-the world's a mysterious place and you cant expect neat and convenient signposts! The film as I understood it: Unknown ages ago Satan had given mankind a "manual" describing how to acquire godly powers, in the form of "Delomelanicon", a legendary scroll written by no other than "Louis Cyphre" himself! A Venetian demonologist, Aristide Torchia, acquired a copy of this work and adapted its text and engravings to a book he called "The nine gates to the kingdom of shadows". Though, I have to admit, I'm pretty terrible too.Congratulations and thanks to Polanski & Co. (Tango music playing) So, Feifei, won't you join me for this dance?

Let's listen to some examples and then explain a little more. Yes it does take two to tango - and that is our expression for this programme.īut the meaning's not as simple as you might think.
