aka La Vampire Nue Late at night an unknown woman (Caroline Cartier), wearing only a negligee, is chased through the streets by a gang in animal masks. She bumps into a young man (Olivier Martin), who tries to help but is powerless to stop her capture. He follows her captors to a chateau. There he discovers a secret society run by his father (Maurice Lemaitre), where suicide and vampirism are used as entertainment for the bored upper class patrons. The young man shocked is determined to rescue the girl.
A riot of colour and stunning, often beautifully conceived scenes, enliven this obviously cheaply made and languidly told film. Don't expect to make much sense of this, but just wallow in the absurdity of it all. An interesting but standard vampire film twists half way through, throwing in mutant aliens, but still manages to make it all a little bit boring!
