Review of Vampyres
- "They share the pleasures of the flesh, and unleashed the horrors of the grave!" screamed the ads. The beautiful Marianne Morris and stunning Playboy centerfold Anulka star as bisexual seductresses who roam the English countryside with an insatiable lust for the blood of mortals as well as the succulent bodies of each other. Director José Ramón Larraz packs this landmark adult hit with chilling atmosphere, shocking bloodshed and some of the most torrid sexuality of any vampire movie in horror history.
Also known as DAUGHTERS OF DRACULA, this controversial cult classic was butchered repeatedly by censors around the world. Blue Underground is proud to present VAMPYRES loaded with exclusive new Extras and featuring a stunning new transfer that restores all of the controversial gore footage missing from any previous version. This is the definitive edition of VAMPYRES!
Description
- "Naked girls and lots of blood, that's what Vampyres is about," says Joseph Larraz in the notes to the film. He rewrites the vampire myth to make his bloodsucking lovelies the restless ghosts of lesbian lovers murdered while making love in their shadowy castle. Reappearing nightly in the twilight forest, they lure men to their castle for blood feasts until the brunette vampire, Fran (Marianne Morris), falls for her latest victim (Murray Brown) and decides to keep him alive, a sex slave she slowly drains dry. "You're playing a dangerous game," warns blonde Miriam (Anulka), perhaps just a tad jealous. As the local cops watch a veritable wrecking yard of car crashes fill up the sleepy back roads (all with naked dead men behind the wheels), you have to wonder if anyone finds this a bit suspicious. It's a slim story filled with misty forests, candlelit castle interiors, and the above-mentioned blood and naked flesh. Larraz adds a few poetic flourishes--blood dripping down pale faces, clouds crawling past a castle--but, more important, gives the living dead girls a genuinely passionate relationship and a zest for nightlife. The DVD features commentary by Larraz and producer Brian Smedley-Ashton. --Sean Axmaker

Very Gory, Erotic, and interesting
A very interesting blend of erotic sex, and gothic elements, including extreme violence. Vampyres is a beautiful film about two hungry Bisexual women, lusting for young men's blood. A must see.

One of the worst movies I've ever seen
This movie is horrible. It isn't scary. The script is awful. The music is terrible. I strongly urge everyone who reads this review, DO NOT waste your time or your money watching this. It's a complete waste of eighty-six minutes.
Score: 1

A steamy vampire classic of the 70's.
Two stunning bisexual beauties named Fran (Marianne Morris) and Miriam (Playboy playmate Anukula) lure traveling men and women into their exotic mansion in a English countryside only to mate with them and a traveling couple discovers that the sexy couple are actually visious bloodsucking murderers.
Enjoyable erotic horror thriller from the UK and Spain with good performences even with our title vampires, great tension, chilling atmosphere, graphic violence and plenty of nudity, eroticism and some lesbianism. The film is a very good cult classic that succeeds in storytelling and atmosphere including eroticism, worth watching for fans of vampire movies and adult horror movies.
This special edition DVD contains the uncut and uncensored version with graphic violence that was cut out of the U.S. version originally with extras like audio commentary from director Jose Ramon Larraz and producer Brian Smedley-Ashton, Interviews with the two lovely vampiresses from the movie, poster-and-still gallery, Trailers, "Lost" Caravan scene, Anukula Glamour photo gallery, DVD-Rom extra and Jose Ramon Larraz Bio.

A Vampire Classic!!!
This movie is definitely one of the best vampire flicks from the 70s. The women are gorgeous, the bloody wounds are totally gory and the plot is fantastic, IMO. I absolutely loved this movie!!! Also great for a double header: "Daughters of Darkness."
Score: 5
