Let's see...a mad female science teacher spouting her twisted ideas in a secluded girls' boarding school? She "seduces" her innocent young students with her pseudo-scientific rants, waves her amulet and turns them into a blood-sucking vampires. They are doing her bidding, murdering fellow students and following her directions with total devotion? You are practically beaten over the head with the subtext in this movie and if you don't see it, you must be blind. It is great fun (if you can sit through the transformation scenes). A B-movie? For sure? But with the subtext, it was treading on interesting ground for 1957. It is a classic and if you take the subtext into consideration it is one of the best and most entertaining of the 50's B horror genre.
