Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Taraparain Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

Roy Hart If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

qmtv Jess Franco should not have been allowed near film production equipment. The story, nonsense. A girl goes back to her father's castle after his death for the reading of the will. There's a punch of relatives and other hanging around. One chick is seen sucking the blood of another chick. Real amateur hour. There's a retard mute hanging around, played by, guess who, the freaking writer/director, Jess Franco. Man, it's just a bunch of disgusting non likable characters. The best actor was the main female character, but that's not saying much. The cinematography was by some loser, jerky camera moves. Nothing happens for most of the movie. Except some nude scenes. Then we find out that the relatives were out to kill or make the girl go insane. Which is what happened. Also, what happened to the one normal guy she bumped into. Never heard from again.This "movie" was slow, boring and disgusting. Amateur writing, filming, acting all the way through. The only way to enjoy this is if you're incredibly high or stupid. Fans of this garbage may dismiss its faults and say but it has atmosphere. It does not. Call it an art film and join the cult. Not good at all. I've seen one other film by this Franco character, Vampyros Lesbos. That's a pile of crap as well.This movie with other cult films like Suspria, Rosemary's Baby, Aliens, Dawn of the Dead all fall into the same pile of garbage. But maybe this film more than others.Here's some recommended films: Messiah of Evil, Footprints on the Moon, Night of the Living Dead (not Dawn of the Dead), White Zombie, All the Color of the Dark.

Red-Barracuda A Virgin Among the Living Dead was directed by the mega prolific Jess Franco at a period when he was delivering his most consistently interesting work. It's definitely one of his better films. It's another low budget sexploitation flick that was obviously cheaply made but there is no denying that this was one of the movies where Franco took a bit more care. The result is an effectively dream-like and quite stylish erotic horror.The story revolves around a girl who travels to a remote mansion for the reading of the will of her recently deceased father. While there she encounters her very strange relatives and pretty soon a series of bizarre events start to occur, including strange supernatural happenings.This is one of the movies that really shows that Franco definitely had something interesting to offer. His filmography was wildly erratic and uneven, which is really to be expected for a director responsible for two hundred films. However, on occasion his left-field, slightly surrealistic style produced movies that were amongst the best in the erotic genre. There is definitely an interesting ambiance to this one. The selection of weird characters and the strange events experienced by the heroine are all successfully dream-like. There is a fair bit of striking imagery such as the seated man who is pulled slowly backwards into a black void, a strange night-time walk through the woods, a vampiric lesbian coupling and the occult ceremony near the end. The latter is scored by cool music by Bruno Nicolai whose soundtrack is very good throughout the film and helps sustain the mood. Franco regular Howard Vernon plays a lecherous uncle but best of all is Christina von Blanc in the title role. She was very beautiful and this is one of her rare appearances.

lastliberal This was certainly one strange movie: Carmencé (Britt Nichols) is doing her toenails during a funeral service, and a head as a flower vase is in her room. Christina (Christina von Blanc) even drops in unexpectedly while Carmencé is licking blood from a blind girl (Linda Hastreiter).Everyone keeps telling Christina that no one lives in the castle she is visiting. One has to wonder as they do not eat with her. Maybe they are ghosts. They certainly don't object when she inherits everything from her father.She not only sees her dead father (Paul Muller) several times, but he talks to her. Is she dreaming? Is she dead and just doesn't know it? Death runs though this film.I have to say for a low budget film, it was beautifully done; the scenery and music were very good, and it was strangely interesting.

christopher-underwood Decent mix of sleaze and spookery. Howard Vernon heads a household of seemingly living but dead folk and there is a sense of decadence as well as of death throughout. Plenty of bare flesh helps fill in where there are the usual lapses in Franco's narrative (speaking of which, in this he features as a grunting mute and still manages to overact). Some good stuff including nude bathing among lily pads and the surreal dialogue with the ever retreating father as hanged man. Good photography (except for the zooms, unless they are towards young flesh, of course) and a fine score from Bruno Nicolai. All in all, likable and enjoyable. Disc includes alternative endings with Romero like zombies.
