Rather than write a review for the "readers review" section, I thought I would just make a post in here (sometimes my taste in films is too outside the interests of the majority here). Not sure how many of you have this disc from Image, but I just got through watching it.
It is a fine addition to the Hammer Vampire film legacy. The ending in particular (while saddled with those dratted rubber bats) is just brilliant and quite unique.
I read on another site that this film is now out of print because Image and Universal (who own the rights to this film) fell out over a pricing issue (Image sold the discs cheaper). Bummer. We might have gotten more Hammer to watch.
Regardless, if you are into Hammer, try and seek this one out. I say it on amazon for $13 - not bad! I got it in a store, shoved right to the back of the rack and beaten up - for $6. One of those rare finds!
