THIRST Great ideas, but the execution's kind of iffy
Why is it that in the movies, everybody always waits until they're actually in the shower before turning it on? I've never done that once in my entire life.
The descendant of everybody's favorite party girl, Elizabeth Bathory, is abducted by a weird cult of vampire-wannabes (self- proclaimed supermen) who hook up their "blood cows" (read: dazed- looking people) in their "dairy farm" so that they can drink their blood later and achieve...well, whatever.
That's a nifty enough idea right there, but it's not used particularly well here. Our heroine makes some half-hearted attempts to escape - a couple of them apparently hallucinatory - while her abductors (whose plans for her don't seem really important enough to justify the extent to which they go to "convert" her) do what they can to make her enjoy the nice, iron-rich taste of clot.
The heroine, played by Chantal Contouri, kinda looks like Elizabeth Hurley, if Elizabeth Hurley wasn't such a fox.
There's nothing really all that special here, other than Henry Silva's hilarious death. The ideas at its root are great, but there's not much done with them. |
