.: Plot :.

An erotic horror tale about a vixen vampiress seducing and killing women to appease her insatiable thirst for female blood.



Linda Westinghouse (Ewa Stroemberg) and her fianceé Omar (Andrés Morales) visit an Istanbul nightclub where the vampire Countess Nadine Carody (the enchanting Soledad Miranda) performs. The Countess takes an interest in Linda and decides to initiate her into the mysteries of the undead. After her first visit to the Countess's mansion, Linda is found wandering on the beach and taken to Dr Seward's sanitorium, where a previous victim of the Countess, the Renfield-like Agra (Heidrun Kussin) is already a patient. Linda's fiancee comes to reclaim her and learns that she is in mortal danger. Seward (Dennis Price – obviously needing a gig to pay the bills) has not told the whole truth, however: He would like to become one of the undead himself and hopes to use Linda to lure the Countess into a trap…



Vampyros Lesbos writer-director-cinematographer Jesus Franco is a film-maker for the one percent, his 150+ films existing in that twilight zone between the arthouse and grindhouse, too trashy and outré for the former, too personal and difficult for the latter.
