Editor's Note

Dreyer's chiaroscuric adaptation of Le Fanu's "Carmilla" follows the harrowing tale of a young man caught up with a dreamlike vampire and her infected family. An early, often astounding horror classic. AKA: "Castle of Doom," "Not Against the Flesh," "The Strange Adventure of David Gray" and "The Vampire."


Plot Summary

A stunningly photographed tale of horror, beautifully capturing an aura of fear and otherwordly menace.| A young man stops at an inn, and discovers the village is rife with strange goings-on... murders, sudden illnesses, and weird skulking creatures. Then a doctor asks him to help a desperately sick girl by donating blood, and before long, the weakened wayfarer is lost in hallucinations, imagining himself buried alive... or could it be real?

Entertainment Weekly
"One of the greatest vampire movies was as much a surrealist experiment as a horror film." -- Grade: A- 07/25/2008 p.54
