Title: BLOOD OF THE VAMPIRE (1958) Post by: alandhopewell on June 26, 2017, 02:32:48 PM I've been looking for this film for years....
! No longer available (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6zFOIyeDno#) To my knowledge, it never showed in the Cleveland market, and all I ever knew about it was this still, which was shown over and over again in FAMOUS MONSTERS OF FILMLAND.... (http://www.stomptokyo.com/badmoviereport/pics/B/bloodvamp2.jpg) I finally ordered a copy from Amazon; dreadful. Even Hammer on a bad day was better than this.

It usually aired on Saturday afternoons on a UHF channel. I bought the DVD a few years ago (double feature DVD with THE HELLFIRE CLUB). It definitely is not one of the best Hammer films, but I find it to be very watchable.

That's the one I had; it wasn't Hammer, there was no vampire, and I never bothered to finish HELLFIRE CLUB....the DVD wound up in the "free" box at the Library.
