vampire circus (1972)

The men of the European village of Schtettel kill their lord, Count Mitterhaus, who has been feasting on their children. Before he dies he curses them and vows to return. Fifteen years later and the village is under quarantine because of the plague. To everyone's joy a circus breaks the cordon and arrives to entertain them. But soon disturbing events start happening...can the curse be coming true?
Here Hammer continue with their 70's formula of sex and gore in this likable gothic horror.
Whilst Vampire Circus brings nothing new to the genre it trips along a a fair pace and provides fine entertainment.
