''Slaughter of the Vampires'' ((イタリア語:La strage dei vampiri)) is a 1962 Italian horror film written and directed by Roberto Mauri. The film is set in 19th Century Germany where a newly wed couple of Wolfgang (Walter Bigari) and Louise (Graziella Granata) arrive at a castle. Upon their arrival, Louise is attacked by a vampire. The film was a low budget production, so much so that actor Dieter Eppler stated that many cast members were not paid for their work. The film was released in Italy where it grossed 36 million Italian Lira: in the U.S., it was also titled ''Curse of the Blood Ghouls''. ==Plot== In 19th Century Germany, a newly wed couple Marquis Wolfgang (Walter Bigari) and Louise (Graziella Granata) acquire a castle. To commemorate the occasion, Louise performs a piano piece she has written during a party. Louise then feels a strange sensation and retires to her room. She is visited by a vampire (Dieter Eppler) who she originally sees at the party she was in and sucks her blood, leading her to desire him. As a result, Louise's health declines which leads to Wolfgang seeking aid from Dr. Nietzche (Luigi Batzella). Wolfgang is too late as when the doctor arrives Louise is already dead. As the doctor diagnoses this, Wolfgang is shocked to find Louise alive as she approaches him and sucks his blood. The doctor later seeks out Louise's hiding place and stakes her to death, along with the servant Corrine, who is also a vampire. Wolfgang's hiding spot is not found as the doctor seeks another abode in the castle. Wolfgang, who is not entirely converted into a vampire, corners his adversary and stakes him with spikes of an iron grating. ==Cast== * Walter Bigari as Marquis Wolfgang * Dieter Eppler as the vampire * Graziella Granata as Louise * Luigi Batzella as Dr. Nietzsche * Gena Gimmy as Corinne * Edda Ferronao as Nietzsche's maid * Carla Foscari as Teresa * Maretta Procaccini as Resy * Alfredo Rizzo as a servant 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Slaughter of the Vampires」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
