Barry Mahon used the name T. A. Dee to direct this, which is kind of a bummer, because I'd put this on the good side of the Mahon film column. It was written by Forest Russell (using the name Russel Fore), who only wrote one other movie, Unholy Matrimony.
A hypnotist realizes that there's more money - and women - if he starts a sex cult. He takes the name Brother Eros and starts to preach that "Love is all that counts."
I dig the idea that there are old rich women who bankroll this cult because they're elite perverts. But if you're coming to The Love Cult expecting debauchery, this movie is near PG-13 in content.
I really do love the tagline for it, though: "Here's a major motion picture that tells the inside story of phony religious groups that used the DEVIL for a preacher!"
Rita Bennett is in this. Despite appearing in movies for directors like Joseph W. Sarno, Barry Mahon, William Rose, and the Ameros during the nudie cutie and roughie eras, then appearing in plenty of mainstream movies like Raging Bull and All That Jazz, she never got her drinking out of control and was buried in a potter's field, her body unclaimed after her demise.
Uta Erickson, who was in the Findlay's Her Flesh trilogy, is also in this, as is Sharon Kent from Beware the Black Widow, Some Like It Violent and Carny Girl.
