Les lèvres rouges. Blood on the Lips. Erzebeth. The Promise of Red Lips. The Red Lips. The Redness of the Lips. Children of the Night. "Love is stronger than death... even than life."
A couple honeymoon at a chic but deserted seaside hotel. The newlyweds, Stefan (John Karlen) and Valarie (Danielle Ouimet), quickly become involved in an obsessive relationship with Elizabeth Bathory (Delphine Seyrig), an Hungarian Countess, and her secretary, Ilona (Andrea Rau), who are also staying at the hotel. Meanwhile the corpses of young woman begin to turn up in the town, all drained of their blood...
A visually stunning take on the Countess Dracula story, which slowly unveils itself through a number of artistic, and often erotic, dreamlike set pieces, with a finesse that belies its budget.
