Les raisins de la mort (English: The Grapes of Death, also known as Pesticide) is a 1978 French horror film directed by Jean Rollin.
Élizabeth panics when she sees Pierre's arms disfigured by infection, but Antoinette holds her back, telling her to get upstairs to take a rest.
When the pain from the infection makes him smash the car's window, the panicked Élizabeth shoots him with a revolver taken from the glove compartment.
While helping her, Élizabeth comes upon more bodies covered with the same strange ulcers strewn all over the village, while others are stumbling around like zombies, driven into murderous insanity by the infection.
While Élizabeth, Paul and Lucien leave the village on foot, they begin to deduce that the infestation happened just after a wine festival on the Sunday before.
Finding it apparently abandoned, Paul and Lucien sit down for a meal after learning from a phone call that the authorities are aware of the infection.
He reveals that he invented the pesticide which tainted the wine that started this baleful infection, which spread so quickly because he had illegally employed immigrants as cheap labor, which prevented him from notifying the police.
Les raisins de la mort was first made available on DVD in the United States via Synapse Films on 25 April 2002; this special edition release preserved its original aspect ratio of 1.66:1.
