Also known as "Sex of the Witch" this one came out a year after Byleth did. Though in fairness BOTH movies do have a scene that the cover could represent.
An old wine merchant is dying so he curses his family, in particular his greedy grand-children.
One by one people start to die.
The plot, minus the sex and witchcraft, could have been a thriller or even a comedy. There are some parallels to some murder mysteries like Clue and Knives Out. In the sense that people keep dying and there are a bunch squabbling children trying to get Daddy's wealth.
There is lots of sex and nudity and it is pretty much the ultimate evolution of the Italian Giallo, Eurosleaze flick. It was only missing a deformed henchman in my mind. Though there is a creepy dude in black.
I will admit that I am now likely to use "fondling the goldfish" as a sexual euphemism after watching this movie. The said scene is about 40 mins into my copy.
It is notable that Camille Keaton of "I Spit On Your Grave" fame appears in this one as well as one of the nieces, Anna. she gets clawed by the previously mentioned creepy dude.
The movie's biggest crime though is that it is a slog and actually kind of dull.
Maybe a Byleth + Il Sesso Della Strega supercut is needed. In fact, I know just how to do it.
At least we know what poster to use.

The rich brother writes his sister out of his will because she was a witch and seduced him when they were younger. Now their illegitimate daughter is back. She is also a witch (more powerful since her blood is "concentrated") and begins to kill off all her half-siblings (they think she is "just" a cousin) so she can have all the inheritance for herself.
Since she is a diabolic witch her patron is Byleth, the Demon Prince of Incest.
While Byleth, or Beleth, has a history this version is closer to the D&D/Pathfinder demon Socothbenoth.
Now, this would obviously be a more R or even NC-17 rated game.
To borrow a Scooby-doo trope one of the characters is a distant relative to the brother's wife (so no weird blood relations here).
