Stylish, dreamlike fantasy, with little dialogue, intermingled with scenes of sex and sadism that have no connection to the main narrative; the music is unpleasantly obtrusive.

gothic erotic!
first saw this movie on the Horror Channel a few months back. it is a very surreal movie and also pretty erotic too. features a couple of nubile young girls (who look like they just skipped school) discovering a castle where a lot of vampires live. at one point one of the girls strips off completely to lure one of the local chaps into the castle! my girlfriend wasn't that impressed with the movie as she kinda half-watched it with me and just sighed thru the nude scenes saying she could do a better acting job than both of them! she probably could but the girls are attractive and the film has a great surreal gothic feel to it so its one to watch if you like erotic gothic stuff!

A typical 70's sexploitation movie...
... with a flavour of vampires. Special effects - none. Plot - err maybe just about discernible. Enough loose ends to crochet a rug. Vampire fangs precariously stuck on bottom lips. Bright sunshine in the night-time shots. Revolvers equipped with 50 shots without reloading.
If you are into this genre of film, it's possibly worth a look. That is, you may like it if it's the sort of thing you like. But probably not. Nice nude bondage and flagellation scene, though! -
