Summary: This movie sucks.
Review: Don't even bother. Not even the lesbian scenes can make this movie worth watching. Not quite horror. Not quite mystery. Very stupid, not put together well. The ending was just horrible. The Redemption intro was almost worth the money though. I think i'm in love.

Summary: Truly Wretched
Review: Even if you enjoyed watching paint dry, this movie would still bore you to death. This is easily one of the slowest, dullest, visually uninteresting titles in the recent wave of euro-horror releases on DVD and VHS. It's anemic to the 100th degree. Except for a few severed heads and a dollop of nudity, there is absolutely nothing here to recommend. There's also no bloodsucker and no dance. Don't waste your time - life is short!

Summary: 1970s Italian Eurosleaze
Review: In contrast to my fellow reviewers, I always try to find something redeeming in any film I see.Yes, the quality of the dubbing and lighting is abysmal, the acting is wooden and the opening sequence highly misleading what with all those lascivious female lesbian vampires with blood dripping.Something must be lost in the translation of the title; of the word "Bloodsucker" from the Italian almost as if the producers were originally going to film a Gothic Vampire tale and then changed their minds but could not afford to give up their dramatic opening sequence, so tacked it onto the film opening anyway.This film made in 1975 has recently been issued on DVD and comes with its own theatrical trailer which in some respects is more daring than seen in the film!Now anyone who buys this film has probably already read its synopsis anyway and knows what to expect - Italian softporn from the mid 1970s.I bought it because I am attracted to Christa Nelli (credited most often as "Krista Nell").The absence of a cast of characters I find most frustrating in a lot of these Eurosleaze films from the 60s & 70s.I had hoped the producers would show the cast of characters as one hears their names in the film but without a cast list, it is very difficult to link them to the actor concerned.Krista Nell played "Cora" but underneath that massive hair style, costume and make-up and dubbed voice it is sometimes difficult to distinguish her. There is mostly a two dimensional portrayal by the actors of their parts and no one really stands out.Maybe something is lost in the the whole translation & dubbing process.What were the positive points?Well the music was atmospheric and of course if you're into beautiful lesbian soft porn it's there.The external locations used were good and I would like to know where they filmed the castle on its island.It purports to be set in "Ireland" (North or the Republic?)in 1902, so everyone sports period piece costumes.Some of the scenes I found unintentionally funny especially those sex scenes!!Anyway an enjoyable romp.I rated it the lowest at one star.
