Serpent's Lair is a 1995 American horror film[4] directed by Jeffrey Reiner and starring Jeff Fahey, Lisa Barbuscia, Patrick Bauchau, and Anthony Palermo. The film premiered on 19 October 1995 in the Hamptons Film Festival. The plot concentrates on a young man who is seduced by an evil succubus intent on destroying his marriage and killing him.[5]

Plot

Newlyweds Tom and Alex move into a gloomy old apartment in Los Angeles. Soon cats start congregating around the house, one of them causes Alex to fall from the stairs, effectively sending her to the hospital and leaving Tom alone in the apartment. While she is away, Tom is visited by a strange, seductive woman, Lilith, who informs him that she has come to collect the remaining property of a former tenant, her recently deceased brother. Lilith has a special feline grace; she sneaks into the apartment and then makes aggressive moves to seduce Tom. Soon he gives into the lure of rough sex. Lilith turns out to be an insatiable lover. Tom feels so exhausted that he begins seeing terrifying satanic hallucinations. When Alex finds out about his affair, she leaves Tom. Lilith then moves in, and soon Tom finds himself becoming both physically drained and mentally collapsed. Gradually, he comes to realise that Lilith is, in fact, an ancient demonic succubus who seduces men, preying on their energy. Fortunately, Tom has his friends and relatives on his side who help him get rid of the demon.
