Review: “The living – dead, dead – alive” – ​​a phrase that sounds out of the mouth of the heroine of the “Iron Rose” is applicable to almost all works of Jean Rollin, but perhaps it is in this film, he has reached the highest point in romanticizing of death. I wrote a “heroine”? This will probably be true: in the picture there are two characters, a few extras, and only one hero – a cemetery, yes, with a capital letter. The plot, dialogue, staging, etc, etc. there are only one purpose – to present the greatness and perfection Abode of the Dead, which are the alpha and omega of all, and what we see around us – a mere shadow of the real world, know that only allowed the transferred line. While living alone is that to continue to err on the value of his illusory life …

Called the «La Rose de Fer» thriller or horror, of course, you can, but you mislead fans of genre cinema, which will be for the entire film waiting in vain though any events. Fortunately, that is not just any string of promises, but screams that soon it will be terrible. Young couple decided to spend a romantic date in the cemetery, a little while has not calculated. Employed in love with each other did not notice that it was dark at night and found themselves in the middle of the old graves in the dark about which side is out … There would, of course, some of the graves Brian Yuzny whooping climbed scenic zombies, and Bruce Campbell added would be for them a healthy share of the U.S. Agriculture humor, but Jean Rollin (director of Grapes of Death and Blackaria), a native of a very different cultural environment. So, no dead will not, and even unsold vampire whose shadow flicker at the beginning of the film, from his tomb will not get out, even though these comrades in his work has never shied away from the maestro. And will be a slow, inexorable transformation into living dead, though strangely still walking and breathing, under the influence of the infinite and unrelenting Cemeteries, which appears in the interpretation of the director’s only reality, while all the rest – just an illusion.
