THE VELVET VAMPIRE

Stephanie Rothman
USA 1971
80 min
V'07

Diane, glamorous and wealthy denizen of nightclubs, lusted after by men and women, is a vampire. With the aid of dark glasses and wide-brimmed hats, she can venture out even in the daytime. She drains a horde of victims, including a biker, a mechanic and the mechanic's girlfriend, before she lures Lee and his wife Susan to her mansion in the desert. Lee, who at first succumbs to her charms, panics when he finds the servant drained of blood, and tries to persuade Susan to leave with him. She is under the vampire's spell at the time, though, and refuses to leave. When Susan finds her husband's dry corpse, however, she does try to escape. The Velvet Vampire, while not as commercially successful as The Student Nurses, has become a cult hit. (Clarke Fountain)
