Twins of Evil(1971)

Peter Cushing stars as gustav weil, a god bothering fanatic who leads a bunch of witch finders who prowel the countryside looking for young girls to burn at the stake on trumped up charges of so called witchcraft. And he gets more than he bargained for when his sexy nieces come to stay Freda and Maria( the foxy collinson twins) , with Freda being the fiesty one who gets off with the local vampire Count karnstein.

This is my favourite out of the karnstein trilogy. and definately one of Hammer's best from their 1970's period. it manages to mix a great gothic atmosphere with superb set pieces, gore, nudity, and a top notch score.
Peter Cushing gives a superb performance too and is highly believable as the ruthless witch finder. and the Collinson twins are really good as well despite being apparently dubbed.
and also look out for Fulci regular david Warbreck as the local school teacher who falls foul of peter cushing.

a top watch indeed. 87 out of 100.
