    Mmmmm! Ingrid Pitt. That's all you need to know.
  • March 21, 2008
    One of the best (cheesy) vampire movies EVER!

    Vampire chicks ROCK!
  • November 18, 2009
    The life force of a young woman is gradually drained from her each time she makes love to her lesbian lover. Her father is inflamed at her choice of a vampire for a sexual partner, and calls in two vampire hunters, one played by Cushing. There's plenty of action that opens with...( read more) Cushing's mentor burning a vamp's bust with a crucifix to determine that she is indeed undead, and then decapitating her. Cushing picks up the technique and also begins wasting femme vamps by decapitating them.. Hammer nearly rejected it at first, not for sensational violence, but because of the sexual taboos.

    Richly romantic Gothic atmosphere highlights this cozy and classy Hammer flm. Written by Tudor Gates and producers Harry Fine and Michael Style.

    Biting. Blood. Vampires. Lesbianism. Nudity.

    Need I say more?

    Some incredibly sexy women disrobe while vamping their way through an incredibly boring horror movie. Not one of Hammer's best -- too much reliance on the eye candy factor.

  • August 2, 2008
    A wonderful entry in the vampire lesbian softcore sub-genre, and the last great Hammer Horror movie.
