Audience Member A mediocre Spanish punk band's van breaks down and they take shelter in the home of a countess who needs human blood to rejuvenate herself and be all young again. This is a really terrible film. All the characters pretty much wander around while senseless dialogue is looped in. There's mild gore and nudity, but who really cares? It's like a really long, really terrible episode of "Scooby-Doo". Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member Pretty bad, even by Franco standards. The music was terrible, especially when it was used over and over. Too bad Charlie Chaplin's grandson hasn't been in anything else though, he was funny. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Trifecta of awesomeness: gore, nudity & avoidance copyright infringement. The band in the movie is actually called Killer Barbies (correct spelling) but I'm thinking there was an issue with the title upon release, hence, Killer Barbys. I wonder if they have more than 2 songs or not because that's all I heard in the 90 minute duration of this movie. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member This Jess Franco horror film is used to purely promote the Spanish punk band Killer Barbies. Its your average horror film plot. Van breaks down so lets stay in that spooky castle. The rest of the plot is ripped straight from hammers countess Dracula. Where a 100 year old countess needs the blood of the young to make her young again. But be warned, this is no campy hammer film. This is pure Franco euro trash. The dubbing is terrible, so its best to watch the subtitled version. Also on the plus side, Silvia Superstar (Barbies lead singer) is hot. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member The best post 70s franco film Scooby Doo style scenario with a cool rock band. Plenty of sleaze, violence & lunacy & great music. In other words, exactly what you can expect from a Franco film Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Spanish b-movie about vampires. It's called like a spanish punk band (Silvia, the main character, is the lead singer), and has the typical elements of b-movies. Blood, sex, nudity and rock music... Of course funny, but without any original or particular thing to remember.. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Read all reviews
