Synopsis
In LUST FOR A VAMPIRE, Swedish stunner Yutte Stensgaard stars as the reincarnation of the notorious female vampire Carmilla Karnstein. A follow up to THE VAMPIRE LOVERS, which, like this film, is based on the writings of Sheridan le Fanu. Here, le Fanu's famed vampiress takes the form of Mircalla, a stunning young finishing school student at an all girls' school. Mircalla satisfies her lust for blood by preying on her classmates, all of whom are drawn to her stunning looks. However, Mircalla's sensuality also attracts the attentions of Lestrange, a teacher at the school with whom she falls in love. An entertainingly tawdry Hammer vampire movie, LUST FOR A VAMPIRE is most notable for Ms. Stensgaard's sultry star turn.
In THE VAMPIRE LOVERS, the very life force of a young woman is slowly drained from her each time she makes love to her lesbian lover. Her angry father is understandably upset at her choice of a vampire for a sexual partner. The incomparable Pitt is in fine form in this erotically charged 1970 effort from England's Hammer House of Horror!

4.0 out of 5 stars An entertaining 2 disk set of two of Hammers less well known films, 26 Sep 2008
By David - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
This two disk set contains the Hammer horror films The Vampire Lovers and Lust For A Vampire. Both films are very losely based on Sheradan Le Fanu's Carmilla.

First up is The Vampire Lovers starring Ingrid Pitt and a selection of Hammer beauties including Kate O Mara (The Rani in Doctor Who). Peter Cushing and George Cole appear as the male leads. There is quite alot of nudity and I think that the film is uncut - the decapitation scenes seem to be intact - they are certainly longer than the other releases I have seen. The print is in 1.85 widescreen and is pritty good quality with a few scratches.

Next up is Lust For A Vampire. This was one of the least popular Hammer films and is generally ridiculed. I have to say I actually quite enjoyed it. Ralph Bates stars with Yvette Stensgard taking over Ingrid Pitt's role (she was filming Countess Dracula at the time). Once again there is quite alot of nudity with some pritty mild gore. The print again is in 1.85 widescreen and is very clear with hardly and blemishes.

All in all this is a very nice package. The only thing that lets it down is the lack of extras. You get a couple of trailers bit no commentary tracks or behind the scenes - still you can't have everything.

5.0 out of 5 stars TWIN DVDS OF EVIL, 5 Oct 2008
By JESSICA'S DAD "Pappy" (Trichur East, Kerala State, India) - See all my reviews
Bram Stoker's Dracula --Superbit [1993]

Hi Guys & Gals, The Vampire Lovers is based on Sheridan Le Fanu's very famous work,'CARMILLA'! THE VAMPIRE LOVERS, LUST FOR A VAMPIRE and TWINS OF EVIL form part of a TRILOGY released by the famous HORROR MAKERS of YESTER-YEAR,'HAMMER FILMS'. Ingrid Pitt portrays Carmilla in 'The Vampire Lovers'.Do any of you know, that she also acted in a Richard Burton - Clint Eastwood, adaptation of Alistair Mclean's WW2 Bestseller, 'WHERE EAGLES DARE'? In the other two films in the trilogy, I really missed Ingrid Pitt. So,as soon as possible, order the three movies and enjoy.

3.0 out of 5 stars 70's Hammer Horror, 23 Jun 2009
Two films that show how hammer horror films had become inclined to show more female flesh than have decent storylines. Ingrid Pitt as usual in these films shows a lot of flesh and Peter Cushing does his usual acting job, killing vampires, but not as Van Helsing.
Yutte Stensgaard plays the same characater as Ingrid Pitt in vampire lovers. However, this film is not as good as the former.
Both films are good for a laugh and classic late hammer horror!
