Unholy Communion...

THE PYX opens with the death of a prostitute named Elizabeth Lucy (Karen Black). Dt. Sgt. Jim Henderson (Christopher Plummer) is on the case. What, at first, seems like a typical murder, develops into something that Henderson can't explain. As he digs deeper into the mystery of Elizabeth's death, he must face the possibility that occult forces are at work.

The atmosphere of this movie grows increasingly thick with gloom and dread. Ms. Black is quite good in her doomed role, as is Plummer as the dogged investigator. His facial expressions during the finale are perfect and unforgettable.

The music by Ms. Black is tragic and haunting...

Wissenswertes
Karen Black used a body double for all the nude shots of her filmed from behind.

Alternative Versionen
SPOILER: The international DVD release by Telefilm is missing a scene (probably lost by a damaged print of the movie), when Christopher Plummer's character (Henderson) goes back to the apartment and finds a reel-to-reel tape with a Gregorian chant on it. It plays out and he accidentally drops it just before he hides when he hears footsteps. This is a fairly crucial scene in this movie.
