Movie Reviews of Vampira The Movie
Movie Review: My First And Favorite Ghoul-Fiend...
Summary: 4 Stars
VAMPIRA (the late, great Maila Nurmi) tells her own story, w/ lots of inside stories, famous names (James Dean, Marlon Brando, et al), and a "shocking" tidbit involving VAMPI and an unsuspecting doorknob! At 82, Maila was still full of life and good humour (she reminds me of Ruth Gordon). It's fun to see / hear her in her own words. VAMPIRA is legendary, known mostly from her iconic appearance in PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE, she has since burned her way into the hearts of thousands (millions?) of fans. I thoroughly enjoyed her take on Ed Wood, his directing "style", and her first impression of the Maestro. Packed w/ tributes from such beloved immortals as Zacherley, Svenghouli, Count Smokula, Forest J. "Famous Monsters" Ackerman, The Misfits' Jerry Only, Sid Haig (Captain Spalding himself!), Bill Moseley, and ultimate amazon queen / goddess Julie Strain (Delta Delta Die) among other luminaries! We even get Cassandra Peterson (yep, Elvira) telling her side of the lawsuit story! My only quibble is that there's nowhere near enough 50s VAMPIRA TV footage. Still, there's enough here (including a coffin-full of extras) to satisfy the curious...
