      Audience Reviews for Vampyros Lesbos

      • Nov 03, 2011
        50% of the movie is the soundtrack, absorbing, cheesy and experimental. 25% of the movie is Soledad Miranda's stunningly endless sex appeal and perfect hand-made body. 15% of the movie is Franco's playfulness with the camera, invading spaces, zooming into details that may not be appreciated from a far distance, capturing urban and natural landscapes. 8% of the movie is the remaining eroticism. 1% is the Gothic aura surrounding these lesbians. The last 1% are those more-sexy-than-bloody vampire bites. Franco: the European king of erotic camp cult trash. 98/100

        A enjoyable and sensual watching with visible fake blood, some exaggerated interpretation and all the kitsch a B movie type can offer. Different from what you would expect of any vampyre movie, in Vampyros Lesbos most scenes are in a sunny and paradisiac outside and the plot is insteresting, playing with "reality" and imagination. *Soledad Miranda was terrific beautiful.

        This film exploring erotic obsession is among the more famous and respected of prolific Spanish director Jesus Franco, who is also known for his "bad taste." Falling somewhere between arthouse and grindhouse, it's too trashy for some while too personal or difficult for others If you are a Franco fan, you know this one already. The film has a huge cult following and deservedly so. A good example of 1970s-era Euro-Horrotica. If you have been thinking of seeing your first Franco film, this is a good choice. <a href="http://s273.photobucket.com/albums/jj203/goji9000/?action=view¤t=vampyroslesbosframe04im4.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj203/goji9000/vampyroslesbosframe04im4.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>

        A mildy titillating, but ultimately lame vampire flick from Jess Franco. The base story is similar to the original Stoker novel. A lady lawyer, Linda Westinghouse, goes to a mysterious woman's island home to probate a will for her. What she doesn't know is that the mystery woman is actually a vampire -- the implication is that she was turned by, and was the mistress of, Count Dracula. But this lady likes to walk on the wild side, and prefers her own kind -- that is, she likes women over men, hates men as a matter of fact. Features some softcore "girl-on-girl" action, a soundtrack that some find groovy but irritated me, and a snoozefest of an onstage striptease number. Very slow and dull in places, and confusing in others, in that two of the main female characters are almost identical. Some of the worst blood effects I've seen. Either the blood looks like raspberry Kool-Aid or red cake frosting. Set in Istanbul, in German with English subtitles.
