Review of Daughters of Darkness (1971) by Shawn W — 22 Aug 2012
Like the other Kumel films I've seen, this is a horror/mystery, although closer to straight horror. It's less surreal than the others, and although I wouldn't say it's a "typical" sexy vampire flick, it didn't impress me with its originality either.
I enjoyed the complex gender politics (and jeez, the most phallic window handle I've ever seen), Seyrig's performance and the general aesthetics. But overall it kinda lacked that eccentric Kumel charm and was a little too schlocky for my tastes.
