"Incubus" has attained mythic status among horror movie buffs [and]
cult film aficionados...

"Incubus" ("le plus grand film fantastique depuis "Nosferatu", a dit Julien Green), apparition du démon:
Pour sa voix, le metteur en scène Leslie Stevens a choisi finalement l'enregistrement des cris d'un cochon
égorgé. Effet de terreur maximum.
—Paris Match
It's a metaphysical witchcraft picture. Lots of mist and people with horns.
We shot it in Big Sur in black and white, very Ingmar Bergman.
—Incubus cinematographer Conrad Hall,
Entertainment Weekly
Incubus has the feel of experimental cinema, but with few of the
rough-around-the-edges lapses associated with that sort of movie; it's innovative, moody,
and expertly photographed by future Oscar winner Conrad Hall...
the movie is nevertheless fascinating, each scene profiting from having
just that extra bit of careful attention devoted to its filming.
—Fangoria
Visually, Incubus is reminiscent of Ingmar Bergman's
The Vampire Spring, but few in this country have ever
gotten a chance to see it.
—Paper
Hall, who recently shot American Beauty, lends Incubus a
stunning visual quality marked by sharp, high-contrast images, lots of
creepy night-for-night shots of smoky landscapes and a startling use of
deep space. It makes the most of the scenery in Big Sur Park, where it was shot
over two weeks in May 1965.
—Broadcast Week
The talent involved was remarkable... Leslie Stevens, an alumnus of
Orson Welles's Mercury Players... Conrad Hall... William Shatner...
sacrifices to the god of darkness... virtual rape... raising of the dead...
gorgeous platinum blondes...
—Linguafranca
We even got some press in the German edition of Elle! Hope they
said something good.
