I picked this one up last year with the intent to watch it for the last Challenge but I ended up traveling for work and I discovered that my work computer did not have the codecs installed to allow me to play DVDs. Grumble....
So like all of Franco's work from around this time this one has a surreal feel to it. That and a lot of girl on girl vampire action. No to mention a beach, a nightclub and lots 70s sex. The movie is a Franco play-by-numbers.
There is a subset of the Dracula myths in movies that often deal with his family. The Subspieces movies touch on this, Dracula's Daughter from 1936 deals with this and many more. There is also influences of Carmillia here, no surprise, and even some similarities
I liked the movie to be honest. You have to go into a Franco movie with some expectations. I would have liked a slightly different ending, but hey expectations right.
Tally: Watched 5, New 5
What are you watching?
