VAMPIRE CIRCUS

1972 • GB HMDB
April 30, 1972

After a spate of murders, the villagers of Schtettel kill the depraved perpetrator, Count Mitterhouse. Fifteen years later the Circus of Nights appeared in the plague-ridden village and its performers include Mitterhouse's mistress, children and cousins. They have come to Schtettel to fulfil the Count's last words, an evil, vicious curse of death and destruction on those who participated in his impaling. The children of Schtettel become the targets for a brutal and devastating revenge as the Vampire Circus rehearses for its most deadly performance.

An entire family of vampires terrorizes a village: the undead have organized no less than a circus! The inhabitants, to get rid of the nuisance, set fire to the tent and pierce the unusual artists with wooden stakes. It provokes involuntary laughter rather than suspense and horror. Pure trash!
