Summary: So wonderfullly bad
Review: The middle chapter of Hammer's Karnstein trilogy (between The Vampire Lovers and Twins of Evil), LUST FOR A VAMPIRE is a textbook example of the studio's penchant for excess in the early '70s. Fans of classic Hammer fare like Horror of Dracula and Curse of Frankenstein will be disappointed with the weak script and atrocious acting. But if the lesbian vampire sub-genre is your thing, you'll, uh, get off on this film.Treasure or trash, LUST FOR A VAMPIRE looks fantastic thanks to the wonderful folks at Anchor Bay. There's a commentary track that is fairly pedestrian, and the goofy theatrical trailer. If this sort of thing is your cup of T (and A), by all means, sink your teeth into it.

Summary: Misguided
Review: This is a good example of what British horror was turning into in the early 1970's. Nudity was pushing to the front and stories were thinning out (no, not all, but those types of films were popping up more and more). It is hard to dislike a Hammer vampire film because they always seem to offer something. This film has the distinction of being the worst of Hammer's vampire films, although many will point to 7GV or SROV. This was one of the three parts of the Karnstein trilogy and it is certainly the weakest and the most awkard. This film tries to be a horror romance, but has very little success due to a weak cast and a very strained story. I know Ralph Bates was a last minute choice because Cushing could not do it, but they certainly needed someone younger. Bates seems funnier here than in Horror of Frankenstein where he was supposed to be funny. Mike Raven stands around frowning and using Christopher Lee's eyes (in close-ups) and someone else's voice. That Strange love song is just rotten, I wasnt't going to write that because everyone knew that, but I just had to let it out. The film does have some good sets, fine costumes and a few decent scenes. Hammer did some fine films in the early 70's like Twins of Evil and Hands of the ripper, but Lust shows the crack that was forming in the armor of British Horror.

Summary: Surprisingly good
Review: This is a Hammer film with a terrible reputation. In fact, many fans consider it the low point of the studio's history. Well, it is not. It is actually an atmospheric, entertaining film that can stand along Hammer erotic vampire films such as "Vampire Lovers" and "Twins of Evil".
The Anchor Bay print is awesome. I'm sure this movie has never looked so clean and crisp. The commentary is also very entertaining. All in all, this is a fine movie that should please Hammer fans and vampire movie fans.

Summary: The perfect mix of vampirism and sexuality put on film.
Review: This is the first and only real film I have ever seen which truly shows the sexual tendencies of a female vampire, both hedrosexual and lesbian. Along with a great storyline and strong supporting cast, this film delivers everything we've come to expect from the Hammer House of Horror. From those creepy castles, spooky graveyards, and the ever popular seductive male vampire with those very blood red eyes.

Summary: Ive seen Puppies scarier than this
Review: This movie is quite bad from all kinds of views. As a horror movie the plot is weak and confusing and not much to be scared about or observant too. As a form of Lesbian erotica it is terrible. Youd be better using your imagination. It has the chance to be a good piece of erotica but everytime something heats up it turns away quickly making the viewer more frustrated than anything. The women are beautiful and you do see a lot of breasts but you can buy a playboy cheaper. Thats the one thing about these horror movies that use a lesbian subplot. Once you start getting excited about a scene they move away so either you can see anything or they just pop to another scene.All in all this is one movie to forget believe me.

Summary: Very Stylish, Atmospheric Hammer Vampire Film
Review: This picture is a tight little Hammer Horror that oozes Sensuality, sexuality and atmosphere for those that like it, like me! Nice gothic scenery, forests, castles are on hand as well as one or two astonishingly beautiful women. A sequel to The Vampire Lovers and second in the trilogy. If you like sensual Hammer Horror, this one's on the watch list!

Summary: Fun
Review: Today, Hammer studio's the Vampire Lovers (an adaptation of LeFanu's Camille) is an erotic gothic film that could be easily shown on prime time TV (except for a bit of nudity) and is still a good piece of filmaking. However, Lust for a Vampire, which was rushed out by Hammer to cash in on the Vampire Lovers' success, is a more exploitative piece of schlock, but one that is nevertheless fun to watch. An author arrives in a small town where women are being brutally murdered (the locals know it is a vampire, but he is too rational to believe this). Much to his sinful delight, he finds himself with the opportunity to replace the professor of literature at a local all-girls academy where every student is gorgeous and they exercise outdoors in flimsy gowns and no underwear. One of the students is a bisexual female vampire (who has a few sexy but very brief scenes with her roommates), and she and the author fall in love. Alas, their love is doomed for they are from two different worlds. The film is, by today's standards, also relatively tame and it gets a bit dull at times when the script attempts to become a more serious gothic thriller, but most of it is harmless exploitative fun with a self-depricating sense of humour.

Review: What an awsome movie!! Kicks all modern so called "horror" films to pieces!!! I even liked the song "Strange Love" and thought it was very touching to add to the love and/or lust scenes hahaha!!! Wish the other Camilla films would get released to DVD!!
