Le figlie di Dracula
Le gemelle orfane Maria e Frieda vanno a vivere in un remoto villaggio ai margini della foresta, presso lo zio Gustav Veil, inflessibile difensore della fede e capo di un gruppo di persone dedito alla ricerca di streghe, vampiri e altri esseri satanici. Sfortuna vuole che il conte Karnstein sia divenuto un vampiro e abbia deciso di fare sue prede le nipoti del servitore della cristianità. Una cede volentieri al fascino del peccato, poco a suo agio nel regime di stretta osservanza impostole, l'altra conserva la virtù. Anton Hoffer cercherà di salvare quest'ultima dalle grinfie del vampiro.

***Great Gothic horror ambiance, good cast, magnificent score, so-so story*** Orphaned twin sisters (Madeleine & Mary Collinson) are forced to move from Venice to Styria, Austria, to live with their puritan uncle (Peter Cushing), who’s hell-bent on hunting down witches and burning them at the stake. One of the sisters, Frieda (Madeleine), refuses to tolerate her uncle’s legalistic abuse and is…
What's quite sad about this film is the presence of Dennis Price - one of my favourite British comedy actors. He offers so little to this vampire thriller and it's a real shame that he is now reduced to bit parts in which he hardly leaves his chair! Anyway, the gist of the film sees the twin nieces of the zealous priest "Weil" (Peter Cushing) arrive in the village that he rather puritanically rule…
