EROTIKILL (1973)



 FEMALE VAMPIRE is one of my fav Jess Franco directed films.  It's also one I've re-watched a whole bunch but I've never seen this version of it before.  What EROTIKILL is, is a re-edited version that takes away some of the more crazy dream-like scenes and makes things more stream-lined and typically horror/vampire movie like.  It is almost like watching a different film and I'm not sure if I like it more or less but it's an interesting viewing after seeing the original version so often.  This would probably be the preferable edition for people that aren't into the whole artsy-aspect of Franco's work but I'm sure it would still seem pretty strange to the average viewer.  There's also a hardcore version, titled INSATIABLE LUST, out there with full explicit blowjob scenes amongst others.  
 The story is pretty simple as it basically consist of Lina Romay playing a vampire who roams about in a mostly undressed state(bare vagina and full euro-bush proudly on display) feeding on folks and sucking out their blood and semen.  Jack Taylor from PIECES(and a million other eurotrash flicks) plays one of her victims and Franco himself(with sweet 70's moustache and long greasy hippie hair) plays a doctor who is the only one who knows what's going down.  There's also a non-ending finale, lesbian antics aplenty and gratuitous blood bathing and air-humping.  A good watch for europerverts and non-retarded goths(do those exist?).  AKA's= BARE BREASTED COUNTESS, JACULA, EROTIC KILL, SICARIUS: THE MIDNIGHT PARTY, THE LAST THRILL, THE LOVES OF IRINA and there's at least two dozen more in various cut and/or uncut form.

  1. This is the version that I am more familiar with. I have an old vhs copy that you gave me of Female Vampire but this one looks much better. I didn't realize that they were so different.

  2. This one just feels a bit more coherent plot-wise. It's crazy how many different cuts there are of this movie out there. I'm guessing FEMALE VAMPIRE is Franco's original version because it just seems the most like his style to me.
