Exceptional theatrical publicity shot featuring the Vampire Baron (Dieter Eppler) slowly emerging from his hidden coffin in the castle's basement.
Slaughter of the Vampires (Italian: La strage dei vampiri) (released in the United States as Curse of the Blood Ghouls) is a 1962 Italian horror film written and directed by Roberto Mauri. The film is set in 19th Century Austria where a newlywed couple move in to a mysterious mansion. During a ball, the wife is bitten by the vampire baron of the mansion.
In 19th Century Austria, a newlywed couple, Marquis Wolfgang (Walter Brandi) 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 unexpectedly visited by a vampire (Dieter Eppler) who she originally saw at that same party and sucks her blood, leading her to desire him. As a result, Louise's health declines, leading to Wolfgang seeking aid from Dr. Nietzsche (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, also a vampire. Wolfgang's hiding spot is not found as the doctor seeks another abode in the castle. Wolfgang, not entirely converted into a vampire, corners his adversary and stakes him with spikes of an iron grating.
Danny Shipka, author of Perverse Titillation: The Exploitation Cinema of Italy, Spain and France, 1960-1980 described Dieter Eppler's vampire character as "one of the campiest vampires in history". The review concluded that the "film is a hoot thanks to some of the most outlandish dubbing ever, making the film appear more like an MST3k episode than a serious thriller."Â
