Blood and Roses (1960)

AKA: Et Mourir de Plaisir

Starring: Mel Ferrer, Elsa Martinelli
Director: Roger Vadim


Premise:
A woman's best friend is about to marry the man she has secretly loved her whole life. She ends up finding a lost tomb of a vampire which causes things to change around the country estate.

My Take:
A stylish and loose adaption of the classic "Camilla" story. The movie probably packed a bigger punch when it was released fifty years ago.
Worth a watch.

Rating: In the middle
