"Cruel men and vicious women fill your heart with loathing..."
Two schoolgirls, Michelle (Mirielle d'Argent) and Marie (Marie Pierre Castel) are on the run. After a violent car chase, in which their driver is killed they find themselves at a chateau stuffed full with vampires. The Vampire leader decides to take them in and initiate them to renew the vampire race...
Another surreal French vampire film from Jean Rollin, featuring his patented technique of startling visuals and lots of skin. This time though he has mixed it with subtle (ie almost none existant) dialogue and sophoriphic pacing.
