Le frisson des vampires (The Shiver of the Vampires, 1971)

"This is where the living make a religion of respecting the dead. This is where the dead make a religion of preserving their lives."

Rollin is always playing in dreamscapes‚ nearly exclusively in his mainstream (ie non porn) work‚ but here more than ever he #seems to be revelling in it‚ even as he pushes it to another remove (a second step of othering nearly: not just a dream‚ but the #conscious performance of a dream). all of this is provided‚ like vibes and mood‚ by the bucketful; plotting and dialogue come a perhaps #necessary second (even by Rollin standards‚ this is ethereal and loosely fitted together‚ scenes blending into scenes without much regard #for cohesive story beats). didn't grab me and hold me like other Rollin films have but there's certainly something here‚ and visually #this is as interesting and as rich as any of the director's works. solidly weird proggy soundtrack too!

W A T C H I N G

I like that 70s psychedelic beat to the soundtrack in this era of horror films. But I hope this movie isn't too "strange" low budget avant garde art stuff. I'm sure there'll be some of that, but hopefully not at the sacrifice of plot.

UPDATE:

It was extra low budget, the usual avant garde French "boobie" movie tropes, nude scenes sometimes without a point as the French do. But the plot wasn't altogether bad, it lagged here and there, redundant in places, but there were some interesting additions to "vampire movie lore".

But it took me much longer than the 95 minute length, had to pause a lot to read the subtitles because I can't read them as fast as they speak and watch the scene to get what the hell is going on. Lol
