Blood for Dracula
He couldn't live without a virgin's blood..... ...So a virgin had to die!
Directed by Paul Morrissey
Produced by C. C. Champion, Andy Warhol Productions
A campy, surreal horror-parody that blends vampire mythology with sexual transgression, class satire, and grotesque body horror in a deliberately provocative, darkly comedic register.
Deathly ill Count Dracula and his slimy underling, Anton, travel to Italy in search of a virgin's blood. They're welcomed at the crumbling estate of indebted Marchese Di Fiore, who's desperate to marry off his daughters to rich suitors. But there, instead of pure women, the count encounters incestuous lesbians with vile blood and Marxist manservant Mario, who's suspicious of the aristocratic Dracula.
