Ignore the Christopher Lee image--this is NOT a Dracula film and he is NOT in this film!
19 August 2007
Despite the title and the image IMDb is currently posting along with this movie, this is really not a Dracula film and Christopher Lee is not in it. Instead, it's a very, very low-budget and dopey movie about a girls school where a rather bizarre relationship develops between a crazy teacher and an impressionable student. It turns out that this teacher has some bizarre masters thesis involving,...well, I really have no idea what it was about and her turning this female student into a part-time vampire made absolutely no sense. The teacher said something about doing this will "save mankind" and other crap like that, but how could turning a girl into something that looks like the love child of Lily Munster and Nosferatu help mankind--especially when it starts sucking the blood out of people??!! Oddly, although the film was made in the more conservative 1950s, there is a very strong and noticeable undercurrent of Lesbianism. There is a strong sexual chemistry between the female teacher and her female student. This makes the film a real curio, but unfortunately the plot, acting and direction are all very amateurish and it is not a film I would recommend to anyone but bad movie fans. Strictly grade-Z all the way and a not particularly good variation on I WAS A TEENAGE WEREWOLF.
