“Ken Russell’s The Devils,” an erotic historical thriller, was recently rereleased as a 4K restoration director’s cut which aired in theaters throughout the country.

Released in 1972, “The Devils” was originally released  with two vital scenes removed from the film due to concerns over how profane they were. However, in this rerelease, retitled “Ken Russell’s The Devils,” the scenes are placed back, allowing the film to be seen as intended.
