Shiver of the vampires (or whatever) is one of my favourite Rollin films, it's all over the shop but I love the gothic but Psychedelic colourful comic book feel, I quite dig the groovy soundtrack so that's probably a heavy factor.
It's one of his first films I saw and was shown with the Eurotica TV show on channel 4 at some point.
So maybe it's just nostalgia but I think the music gives it some pacing that is absent from some of his other films, currently watching it at this very
moment on Redemption blu.
The two Vampires seem like they've stepped out of The Fearless Vampire Killers or The Vampire Happening or something, and the two lovers in a strange castle reminds me of Rocky Horror although this was a few years before that, I dunno it just works for me.
But then again i really enjoyed Night of the Hunted, so what do i know.
Also theres a weird woman in a clock with spiky tits.
