Programmer's Pick

The Horrible Sexy Vampire saunters through its Gothic corridors draped in sexploitation style and classic horror tropes. With an enigmatic count, recurring murders, and a suspiciously restrictive inheritance, this is one castle tour where the lingerie is as transparent as the alibis.

Overview

In the small town of Brennitz near Stuttgart, a string of murders has the local authorities baffled. The coroner and a police detective suspect these deaths, recurring every 28 years, are the work of a vampire and trace the origins to the ominous von Winnegar castle. After their investigation ends in tragedy, Count Oblensky arrives from London, inheriting the castle under strange conditions—he or his wife are the only ones permitted inside, and the dungeons are strictly off-limits. As Oblensky settles in, he becomes increasingly convinced that vampires haunt the estate, though the locals dismiss his fears as mere madness or drunken delusion. The film unspools in a moody Gothic setting, blending supernatural suspicion with lurid intrigue.
