starring: Patricia Loran ˇ Adela Tauler ˇ Waldemar Wohfahrt

A
sex sadist is murdering women in the recluse community of Stuttgart
(presumably shot in Germany to avoid the strict censorship rules in
Spain at the time). A doctor is convinced that the killings are the
evil agenda of a vampire baron named Winninger who died many years previous.
Count Oblensky, heir to the Winninger estate, moves into his ancestral
castle despite a collection of unsolved murders that may be committed
by someone close-at-hand. When his fiancé Susan visits, she also
becomes a target for the killer.
As
with other Jose Luis Madrid horror films, the plot isn't as important
as the nudity and the sex slayings (also see his SEVEN
MURDERS FOR SCOTLAND YARD which also starred Patricia Loran).
This one is loosely based on a series of unsolved murders which the
Spanish media called El Vampire de la Autopista.
An Italian/Spanish
production, two full versions: English and Spanish prints; widescreen
