Review of I Drink Your Blood (1971) by Alex R — 13 Oct 2011

I'm a sucker for cheesy exploitation films such as this. I Drink Your Blood maybe a bad film in terms of cinematic merit, but in terms of drive-in horror it is a flawless treat that will appeal to the most demented horror fans.

I Drink Your Blood is a memorable horror film. There are no real good performances, and I Drink Your Blood is designed to shock and disturb and it most certainly does that. The film is pure 70's sleaze and it is very entertaining, despite the fact that it's imperfect.

I thought that the film was great because of such aspects. I Drink Your Blood has been described as a crappier version of Romero's classic, Night of the Living Dead. The film succeeds at being a great Grindhouse exploitation horror flick, and fans of such films should check this one out; you won't be disappointed.

I Drink Your Blood is a must see horror film, and frankly even if it's trash cinema, it's trash cinema at its very best. This was the first film to garner the dreaded X rating. I Drink Your Blood is a terrifying, crazy film.

The films premise may be silly, but the end result is a memorable forgotten trashy gem of early 70's exploitation cinema. If you love these types of films check it out, and let the mayhem begin.
