Editorial Reviews

Spain released, PAL/Region 2 DVD: it WILL NOT play on standard US DVD player. You need multi-region PAL/NTSC DVD player to view it in USA/Canada: LANGUAGES: English ( Mono ), French ( Mono ), Spanish ( Mono ), WIDESCREEN, SYNOPSIS: Horror director Jean Rollin followed up Le Viol du Vampire with this equally strange excursion into vampiric eroticism. The plot concerns a suicide cult led by a mysterious figure known as The Master. Oliver Martin is the hero, who tries to rescue pretty Caroline Cartier from the cult, only to find out that yet another group of vampires wants to save her too. There's people with reindeer heads, the usual artsy sex and violence, and a science-fiction subplot about a doorway to another dimension (as in the later Phantasm). Maurice Lemaitre and Bernard Musson co-star in this pretentious but enjoyable shocker.

2.0 out of 5 stars The usual Rollin problems..., February 3, 2008

This review is from: The Nude Vampire (DVD)

...which are: The subject matter would usually lend for a visual feast. However Jean Rollin manages to be an ultimate bore when it comes down to the cinematography in this production. When we all know from "Rape of the Vampire" and "Fascination" that compelling visuals can be his strength. The lighting is flat, compositions plain.

The editing is sloooooow. Do we really need to see a guy walk across a field until he disappears into the horizon? In an end sequence maybe, however not in the middle of a story that already tends to induce sleep.

My favorite: the girl that shoots herself in front of an audience. No gun smoke, no jerky body movement, no blood.
The acting is as usual questionable however this is most likely not a priority when watching a Rollin film. The majority of costumes look homemade. Or completely pretentious.

Bummer.

3.0 out of 5 stars Early Rollin Vampires, May 24, 2010

This review is from: The Nude Vampire (DVD)

Rollin's second vampire film is an example of technique over plot. Not up to par with some of his other work, it remains a must see for some of the startling images that occur within its running time. I originally saw this film in a heavily edited washed out print, Redemption has triumphed once again with a nice looking transfer. A perfect segue to his much better 'SHIVER OF THE VAMPIRES'.
