El vampiro sangriento (The Bloody Vampire)
In 19th-century rural Mexico, Count Cagliostro instructs his daughter and her fiancé in the family specialty: scientific vampire hunting. Meanwhile their neighbor Count Sigfrido von Frankenhausen drains the blood of young maidens with the help of his perverse housekeeper. An intoxicating gothic tale swamped in sadistic glee, where Frankenhausen falls prey to erotic urges whilst scientists encourage grave robbing for experimentation that promises to save humankind from the furriest vampire in Mexican horror film history.
La invasion de los vampiros (The Invasion of the Vampires)
The body count rises as Count Frankenhausen expands his reign of terror while a talented acolyte of Count Cagliostro fights to cure vampirism using the black roots... of a mandrake tree. A deep fog, an ever-present howling wind, and a giant furry vampire hold sway over this eerie sequel which revels in the conflict between faith and science as the undead keep rising in this opulent gem that would surely make Richard Matheson smile.
