Rainey Dawn This is a bit different for a vampire film - the idea of vampires and hippies together. The movie does have entertainment value for fans of vampires in film.For a budget film it's pretty good. The acting is much better in this film than you'd expect. The story is interesting enough and the costumes and sets are good.Robert Quarry make one creepy looking vampire - he's a bit scary in this one. He plays Khorda a mysterious man that ends up with a following of hippies.Overall this is a fun vampire film - it may not be the best vampire film made but it's an entertaining one that is enjoyable to watch.6/10

Veronica65 ...that Pico and the gang fall victim to a vampire. I like hippies! I root for hippies to win the day! The first part seems less like a horror film (aside from the opening scenes) and more like a 'hippies- find-their-spiritual-path' movie...call me a sentimental old fool if you will, I was rooting for Pico and the gang to find a more satisfying outlook on life. Quarry is masterful, of course, even in Manson drag... and I really liked Bill Ewing as Pico. It's also always a treat to find a movie with John Fiedler. Main criticism: Pico SHOULD have used his Kung Fu against Barbado, he would have come off better. It was almost like the filmmakers forgot that Pico had that particular training in the second half. I love this movie! Music and all.

Gafke A pipe playing reject from the cast of "I Walked With a Zombie" and an ancient vampire who bears more than a passing resemblance to Jason Isaacs take over some prime oceanside property (isn't that just like a bloodsucker?) and seduce a bunch of young and groovy hippies, forcing them to participate in all-night dance parties. A pretty girl who looks like Jane Asher falls under the spell of the Vampires, and it's up to her inept boyfriend and an old geeky man to save her. When the police fail to believe their story, they attempt to make a rescue on their own. Can they save her in time? Who cares, really?A biker-momma and her old man are the first to become food. A young man displays his Kung Fu talents at films beginning, and when attacked by a group of vampires, apparently forgets all of his martial arts training and starts kicking and screaming like a two year old having a tantrum. The Vampire dresses like Liberace...it's all pretty goofy, but it's harmless. I can think of worse ways to waste an hour or so.

Katatonia I wasn't sure if I would like The Deathmaster or not, since I really didn't personally care much for the Count Yorga movie. I liked some of Robert Quarry's other work in films though, so I figured I would give this one a shot.I must say that I liked it more than I thought was possible. It has a distinct and unmistakable 1970's cheesy "vibe" running rampant throughout the movie. That actually works in favor of the movie, it gives it an authentic flair of the era. The story is nothing too fabulous or original, but it was the visuals that intrigued me. The cinematography work on The Deathmaster was well above average.So, it's a pretty good vampire flick of the early 1970's. Definitely worth a look for both Quarry fans, and also for Vampire aficionados.
