The only horror film from the London-based Hammer film company that was made with German co-producers, Terra Filmkunst, and was also partly shot in Germany.
The original, an occult thriller by bestselling British author Dennis Wheatley, is reminiscent of Rosemary's Baby, but Wheatley's novel was published almost 15 years earlier than Ira Levin's book.
The then 14-year-old Nastassja Kinski, who played the victim of Satanists, had only made one film with Wim Wenders. Right after her role in Hammer's TO THE DEVIL... A DAUGHTER she appeared in a sensational Tatort episode by Wolfgang Petersen: REIFEPRÜFUNG. Her pursuer, the leader of the telepathically gifted devil disciples, is Christopher (Dracula) Lee as an excommunicated clergyman who wants to have the nymph Catherine alias Nastassja impregnated by the hell demon Astaroth. His opponent was a major American star who had filmed under directors such as John Ford , Don Siegel and Robert Wise: Richard Widmark.
