Well, this particular Hammer was trashed upon release, and I can’t say it deserved much better. It’s another lesbian vampire vehicle, but it’s exceedingly talky as I recall, with most of the killings off screen. Ingrid Pitt turned it down, saying she thought the script was dreadful. But I’d give it another shot, as a lifelong Hammer junkie.
Yeah, I only watched it because it’s part of the “trilogy” with Vampire Lovers and Twins of Evil. Not very good.
