Movie Reviews of Lust for a Vampire
Movie Review: Those Evil Karnsteins Have Moved Next Door! There Goes The Neighborhood!
Summary: 4 Stars
Beautiful Swedish actress Yutte Steinsgaard has reprised the role of the evil, bisexual vampire, Carmilla Karnstein in "Lust for a Vampire." This is Hammer's sequel to "The Vampire Lovers." Though not as violent and gory as the original, "Lust for a Vampire" is still a superb gothic chiller.
Through the blood of a virgin, Carmilla Karnstein is resurrected with the young body of an eighteen year old; she is enrolled in the nearby finishing school for wealthy girls. I suppose the producers felt that Ingrid Pitt who originally played Carmilla was too old to pass as a student. This is a shame because Ingrid Pitt was more voluptuous and sensual. She had quite a stage presence; she reminded me of a female version of Christopher Lee. (And I loved her accent.) Speaking of Lee, he should have been given the role of the vampire Count Karnstein.
Unable to control her blood lust, Carmilla begins seducing and murdering villagers, classmates, and teachers. Count and Countess Karnstein arrive at the school and do their best to cover up for her. Naturally, more deaths ensue.
Beautiful sets and costumes, eerie music, forbidden eroticism and gruesome murders make "Lust for a Vampire" a unique film from Hammer. It is highly recommended for fans of Hammer, gothic horror, and vampire films.
