Movie Reviews of Slaughter of the Vampires
Movie Review: Old School Gothic Vampire Classic
Summary: 5 Stars
Here's another release that I had in my pile and finally watched after so many years, it was worth the wait. Growing up in the sixties and having seen this many times over on New York television in splicy edited versions, I tracked down a theatrical screening of this under the title 'THE CURSE OF THE BLOOD GHOULS' back in 1975 double billed with 'THE VAMPIRE BEAST CRAVES BLOOD' at the Loews theatre in Jersey City, New Jersey and in 35mm ,it blew me away. Dark Sky Films has finally brought the film to its beautiful crisp glory. This film belongs to that wonderful Italian Sixties Vampire quartet which consists of 'THE PLAYGIRLS AND THE VAMPIRE', 'THE SLAUGHTER OF THE VAMPIRES', 'THE VAMPIRE AND THE BALLERINA',and "THE VAMPIRE OF THE OPERA'. The last two have ,no pun intended, not seen the light of day ,although 'VAMPIRE AND BALLERINA' was shown on the TNT network many years ago in a beautiful transfer but with many commercial breaks and I hope either Dark Sky or Image Entertainment finds the negatives of those films to give them their due releases. All have great classical music scores by ALDO PIGA, and interchangeble credits of directors and actors including WALTER BRANDI, ROBERTO MAURI, and ALFREDO RIZZO. This one has always been my favorite blending the gothic old school vampire myths with the 'HAMMER' glamour of the sixties. I defy anyone as a teenager back then sitting through this film and not reacting to the beauty of GRAZIELA GRANATA. Even when RAQUEL WELCH strutted her stuff with less on her form in 'ONE MILLION YEARS B.C.', I still think GRAZIELA had her beat as she becomes more smoldering when her vampiric transformation takes over. Dieter Eppler, a stalwart of many German Edgar Wallace Krimis, shines as the vampire count. Highly recommended not only for classic horror buffs but for those who yearn for the days when horror films did not have to rely on a body count or computerized digital effects. Here is an excellent example of classic Euro-Horror in glorious black and white. Turn out the lights and enjoy. Thank you, Dark Sky, for allowing me to relive the experience over and over again.
