On a dirt road overlooking an old castle somewhere in Central Europe, an old-style automobile runs out of gas and has to be towed into a small village. Needing a place to stay "Gerald Harcourt" (Edward de Souza) and his recently married wife "Marriane" (Jennifer Daniel) check into the local hotel unaware that they have been observed from afar. Not long afterward a letter is sent to their hotel room from a man named "Dr. Ravna" (Noel Willman) inviting the couple to his castle for dinner. They gladly accept and a coach arrives later that evening to take them. When they get there they are greeted by the doctor along with his son "Carl" (Barry Warren) and daughter "Sabena" (Jacquie Wallis) who also live in the castle. Unfortunately, what they don't realize is that all three of these people belong to a vampire cult and that they have been invited for more than just dinner. At any rate, rather than reveal any more I will just say that this was an interesting vampire film which deviates a little from the traditional rules associated with this particular genre-especially at the end of the movie. But other than that it was entertaining enough and I have rated it accordingly. Slightly above average.
