Movie Info

This badly-dated but interesting variant on the vampire subgenre is loosely based on the Simon Raven novel Doctors Wear Scarlet. The story details the seduction of an Oxford resident (Patrick Mower) into a satanic vampire society while studying in Greece. The chief twist here is that vampirism is treated not as a supernatural affliction, but as a bizarre form of sexual gratification -- an alternative lifestyle in which Mower is soon immersed, thanks to the manipulations of an exotic Greek siren.

R, 1 hr. 30 min.

I saw this as a fan of Cushing, and was disappointed, he has an extremely small role. The movie is also very slow and boring, and we don't get to know much about the characters either. And it's supposed to be about vampires, but it's not about them hardly at all.

Super Reviewer

This movie is slow and uninteresting, there isn't even anything about vampires until close to the ending, and the audience just isn't given enough about the characters to really care at all. I wouldn't recommend seeing this movie unless maybe you're a huge fan of Cushing, who plays a small role in this.
