Michael Ledo The title has all of the words and none of of the bite. A group of new employees are on a bus headed to their employer's mansion. While in route the bus driver suddenly dies. Rather than place him on the luggage rack, like an real American family would do, they wrap him up and place him in the back of the bus. The crew opts to spend the night in a small village inn before pushing on, a very odd village where everyone disappears at night...and their bus won't restart...and the meat is like nothing they have tasted. Oh yes it is the type of inn where connecting rooms have a hole in the closet.AS as exciting as a grindhouse or sexplotation film as this sounds, it is not. It makes promises it doesn't deliver. It actually drags as you have to listen to bad dialog from translations.Brief nudity (Dyanik Zurakowska) Available in multipacks.

Red-Barracuda Vampire's Night Orgy is one of a number of erotic vampire movies released in Europe in the early 70's. In fairness, this one isn't especially erotic with little nudity on display, which given the title you could be forgiven for expecting quite a bit. The chief strength of this one is in its atmosphere. In it a group of people wind up at a remote village where they are openly welcomed. It becomes clear quite soon though that there is something sinister about these villagers.Like I say, it's the creepy atmosphere that works best in this one. The gloomy countryside locations are well used. The remote village and its strange inhabitants is a typical horror staple but it's well done here nevertheless. While this one is promoted as being a vampire flick, it more accurately could be described as a film about nocturnal cannibals with a vampire queen. The latter is a Countess perhaps unsurprisingly. The mix works though and I suppose adds to the cult value of the film. It's a movie that should certainly appeal to Eurotrash devotees and is generally a very solid entry in the cycle of continental vampire films from the period.

Thorsten-Krings I haver to say that I quite liked this film. The story is a mix of Brigadoon, And then there were none and a vampire film. A busload of people off to work in a remote castle have to stop in a small village because their bus driver died. The town is deserted on the first night and the group take rooms in the local Inn which on the next day is normally populated. You may guess it: the inhabitants are vampires. In order to feed their guests they chop off their own limbs which leads to a scene that almost made me throw up although no gore was involved. It is simply showing the "giant" wielding the axe to chop off a leg and then a succulent joint of roast meat in the next scene. we all know what they are eating of course and they keep talking about that delicious special flavour. Amidst nudity the members of the group are then chased one by one. The story in itself is not original but the film is very atmospheric with an isolated mountain village in Spain being a fresh and interesting location. The version I watched was the one that was cut down to about 80 minutes. Unfortunatzely they cut the nudity but 80 minutes is actuall quite a good running time for that fairly thin story. So all in all, this is quite an entertaining film. I just find it amazing how many horror films were produced in Spain duriung the last years of the Franco dictatorship.

Scarecrow-88 A bus driver taking a small group of hired help for a new job at a wealthy estate, has a heart attack leaving them in quite the predicament. Needing rest, they find a sleepy Spanish village surprisingly absent of citizens. One amongst them is attacked by those citizens who just so happen to be vampires, under the servitude of The Countess(Helga Liné, wasted in a rather underwhelming role). Soon the others' lives are at risk as the village folk, who seem hospitable if rather strange, await them when most vulnerable, at night. One by one, members of this group of outsiders fall prey to The Countess and her minions. Luis(Franco regular Jack Taylor), a traveler passing through, falls in love with Alma(Dyanik Zurakowska)and believes that the people of the village are not who they appear. His car was tampered with and fixing the cut wire will be a top priority so that Luis and, the ever-frightened Alma, can get out of this place before they are doomed like the others.Director León Klimovsky, known for his films starring Paul Naschy, attempts to develop an atmospheric horror film regarding trapped outsiders in a hostile place where vampiric citizens are around every corner. The vampires of this particular film are more in spirit with Romero's zombies with how they rush human victims, how their hands grab across the terrified faces of those screaming for help that will not arrive, and especially how León Klimovsky photographs their faces coming towards the screen. There's little to no blood, quite an anemic vampire film. The Countess only really conquers one victim with her bite, before tossing his torso over her bedroom's ledge for her blood-thirsty brood. She makes an appearance once as a seemingly generous host to the group with a supposed bus that can not crank. Later, The Countess appears again, exiting her crypt and eventually hopping in the backseat of Luis' car attempting to thwart their escape. Little nudity, merely a brief glimpse of Zurakowska's breasts, with Taylor's Luis spying on her through a torn hole which eyeballs directly into her bedroom. The night attacks are what I thought worked best while the tacky jazzy elevator musical score(s)leave anything to be desired. Quite low budget, with an twist ending that isn't needed and feels forced so that we are left wondering if what we saw was real or imagined. Liné, as the vampiric Countess, has a sex scene with a potential victim, but nothing is elaborated. Perhaps the most horrifying scene is the accidental suffocation of a young girl. Despite how lurid the title sounds, this really isn't that exploitive.
