VAMPIRE CIRCUS

1972 • GB
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.

Un'intera famiglia di vampiri terrorizza un villaggio: i morti-viventi hanno organizzato nientemeno che un circo! Gli abitanti, per liberarsi dell'incomodo, appiccano fuoco al tendone e trafiggono con paletti di legno gli inconsueti artisti. Suscita involontarie risate piuttosto che suspense ed orrore. Trash allo stato puro!
