4 out of 5 stars A steamy vampire classic of the 70's.   November 19, 2007
John Lindsey (Socorro, New Mexico USA.)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Two stunning bisexual beauties named Fran (Marianne Morris) and Miriam (Playboy playmate Anukula) lure traveling men and women into their exotic mansion in a English countryside only to mate with them and a traveling couple discovers that the sexy couple are actually visious bloodsucking murderers.

Enjoyable erotic horror thriller from the UK and Spain with good performences even with our title vampires, great tension, chilling atmosphere, graphic violence and plenty of nudity, eroticism and some lesbianism. The film is a very good cult classic that succeeds in storytelling and atmosphere including eroticism, worth watching for fans of vampire movies and adult horror movies.

This special edition DVD contains the uncut and uncensored version with graphic violence that was cut out of the U.S. version originally with extras like audio commentary from director Jose Ramon Larraz and producer Brian Smedley-Ashton, Interviews with the two lovely vampiresses from the movie, poster-and-still gallery, Trailers, "Lost" Caravan scene, Anukula Glamour photo gallery, DVD-Rom extra and Jose Ramon Larraz Bio.

5 out of 5 stars A Vampire Classic!!!   September 26, 2007
lucysnow (Seattle, WA)
This movie is definitely one of the best vampire flicks from the 70s. The women are gorgeous, the bloody wounds are totally gory and the plot is fantastic, IMO. I absolutely loved this movie!!! Also great for a double header: "Daughters of Darkness."


2 out of 5 stars Missed Opportunity   August 12, 2007
Merry Month of May (PA)
I just watched it for the first time and I agree with some other reviewers that this was a film with awesome potential that did not live up to it. I loved the landscape and the foreboding, Victorian mansion, and how the foggy countryside felt so immediate. The actresses were well suited to the film with their eerie, floating movements, and had good chemistry.

But I would have preferred a film with similarly great atmosphere that held together better and made more sense. As a previous reviewer noted, the leading man, Murray Brown, who plays "Ted," is not really worthy of his special-ness. It makes little sense that the vampire Fran would take risks to keep Ted alive for sex when she has her beautiful girlfriend, Miriam to pleasure her at any time. Maybe director Larraz identified with Ted, which is why he wrote the story so the character would live.

Also, I was disappointed that the couple staying in the camping trailer didn't ultimately play a more purposeful role. They were introduced in a way as proxies for the viewer because they, too, are innocently wondering about all the strange things which keep happening around them. The female of the couple, played by Sally Faulkner, is particularly intent on piecing together the mystery. She is very likeable as a sensitive, curious person. I wanted her to defeat the vampires and be the ultimate hero of the film, not Ted.
