Director Juan Luis
Buņuel is the son of legendary director Luis Buņuel. Juan
shares his father's vision for framing and art direction but his films
lean more toward the horror genre, usually with sacrilegious themes concentrating
on dark periods of organized religion (e.g., this motion picture uses
the inquisition as a backdrop).
Richard is a medieval
nobleman. After his first wife dies in an accident and is buried in the
family vault, he remarries and has children by his second wife. However,
Richard is not a happy man. He harbors a mad longing for his first wife
Lenonor, and he sells his soul to the devil for a chance to get her back.
But when Leonor returns, she is a murderous vampire who needs the blood
of children to stay alive.
