DVD Reviews of Blood of the Vampires
DVD Review: "Our Mother Is A Vampire!"
Summary: 2 Stars
"Blood of the Vampires" is a dreadful horror flick set in nineteenth century Mexico, but made in the Philippines with an all Filipino cast. The acting, direction, film quality, and casting are absolutely bottom of the barrel. When black actors are called for, they simply put blackface on Filipinos thinking the audience isn't smart enough to notice.
The film starts at a large dinner party with dancing in a big old spooky house. There's a romantic subplot about the engagement of the main character to be married to the daughter of Señor Escodero. Note that the scenes of intimacy are more than a bit wooden, like all the rest of the acting here. The family patriarch is also dying in another subplot that festers on and off for the duration of the movie (with a terrifically unbelievable resolution near the end.) In fact, there's no end of pathetic attempts at dramatic subplots which go nowhere, but the film focuses on the fact that Señor Escodero's wife is a vampire locked in the basement of the house. When the kids find out there is no end of trouble, and no end of vampiritic activities. Unfortunately it's sometimes hard to tell what's going on for two primary reasons: first, the quality of the film is relatively poor; and second, the dubbing is absolutely horrendous. Remember, English is the third language of the film.
Watching the unvarnished of this film warrants a single star, but I have decided on a two star rating in the event you see a copy of the Cinematic Titanic version of the movie (which is highly recommended), as the commentary makes it much more palatable; then again, any change would make this film more palatable.
