Audience Member This is a substandard entry, even for a B movie, but has arguably the best "bite" scene ever committed to celluloid. It is haunting and quite beautiful. The dubbed dialogue is astoundingly bad and makes a lot of the transition scenes almost unwatchable. The damsels are all exceedingly hot, especially Rosanna Yanni, although Haydee Politoff is a little tiresome. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member The plot bounces around strange subjects and crazy ideas, but it's a fun 70's spanish horror flick with plenty of blood and too many tits. It takes basic Dracula-attire and throws in some silly romance that leads to Dracula offing himself off in the end. Trashy, but it's fine. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a Paul Naschy film. Naschy plays the vampire count. Its one of those movies that is bad yet good. The first ten minutes are funny to me, though nothing about it is suppose to be funny. For the duration of the opening credits you see a man with an axe in his forehead fall down stairs. This scene plays over and over till the credits are over. As the movie starts a stage coach driver is relentlessly cracking his whip over the horses and yelling at them. In the English dubbed version the Transylvanian coach driver sounds like he is from the back woods of Texas. The movie is all atmosphere, lovely ladies, and vampires biting people. There is quite a bit of blood, and there are quite a few bare breasts. A group of foreigners are traveling through a remote part of Transylvania when their carriage breaks down. They take refuge in a delapidated, but lovely mansion occupied by an eccentric doctor who has recently bought the property. I cant tell what time period the movie is suppose to be set in. People are traveling by hoarse and carriage, which makes me think 19th century, but they are in remote Romania, so it might be the 1972. It doesnt matter though because its that remote, mythical area of Transylvania where its forever the same era. Toward the end the story goes in an unusual direction. You probably wont be able to guess how it ends. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Interesting take on the Count by Naschy--An enjoyably trashy piece of Spanish horror junk!!
