The Vampires Night Orgy

Vampire's Night Orgy is one of a number of erotic vampire movies released in Europe in the early 70's. In fairness, this one isn't especially erotic with little nudity on display, which given the title you could be forgiven for expecting quite a bit. The chief strength of this one is in its atmosphere. In it a group of people wind up at a remote village where they are openly welcomed. It becomes clear quite soon though that there is something sinister about these villagers.

Like I say, it's the creepy atmosphere that works best in this one. The gloomy countryside locations are well used. The remote village and its strange inhabitants is a typical horror staple but it's well done here nevertheless. While this one is promoted as being a vampire flick, it more accurately could be described as a film about nocturnal cannibals with a vampire queen. The latter is a Countess perhaps unsurprisingly. The mix works though and I suppose adds to the cult value of the film. It's a movie that should certainly appeal to Eurotrash devotees and is generally a very solid entry in the cycle of continental vampire films from the period.

"Vampires' Night Orgy" is about a group of travellers who find themselves in a village inhabited by bloodthirsty vampires.The decaying and highly atmospheric village is called Tolnia.Everything seems to be black,grey or brown-filled with morbid aura death and gloom.Jack Taylor makes for a reliably sleazy leading man while Dyanik Zurakowska and Helga Liné are both strikingly hot.Some of the scenes where the villagers seem to emerge from the cracks in the walls to slowly engulf their victims evoke memories of the "Blind Dead" series.The only drawback is the jazzy background music which is very annoying.Overall,if you are a fan of 70's Eurohorror give this stylish entertainer a look.7 orgies out of 10.

A group of workers is traveling by bus to the town of Bojoni to work for an aristocratic family. The driver has a fulminating heart attack, and the group decides to drive to the near village of Tolnio instead, to spend the night and follow to Bojoni on the next morning. They find nobody in the apparently ghost city, but in the next morning, they meet the hospitable dwellers. Their bus has a problem in the engine, and they have to stay in Tolnio. Sooner they find that they are trapped in a vampire village.

"La Orgía Nocturna de los Vampiros" is a reasonable vampire movie, having also many funny moments. I particularly liked the scenes where meat is served to the hosts; the death of the little girl; the finger in the food of Alma; the vampires chasing the car with Louis and Alma; and the beautiful breasts of Dyanik Zurakowska, with marks of bikini. The conclusion is ridiculous, with Alma and Louis returning to Tolnio immediately after their scary runaway. Unfortunately, the music score of this film is simply awful, dated and not suitable for a horror film. My vote is five.

Title (Brazil): "A Orgia Noturna dos Vampiros" ("The Vampire's Night Orgy")

Cheeky little number involving a bus load of folks hired for some far off job travelling the Spanish countryside when their bus driver has a heart attack and dies. While stashing his body safely in the overhead compartment, they debate whether to head on to their planned destination or stop for the night at the sinister village that's just mysteriously appeared nearby. Being characters in a horror film, they of course choose the village.

Also, being characters in a horror film, they show no surprise whatsoever when they find the village deserted, but the local hotel's bar stuffed with booze, a roaring fire going, and loads of rooms ready to sleep in. They meet another traveller played by Jack Taylor, from every Spanish film ever made including Ghost Galleon, the hilarious Pieces, and ever Jess Franco film that's escaped to torment the public. He's also non-plussed about the deserted village, but he's tickled pink to find a hole in his hotel bedroom wall that allows him to spy on the pretty girl of the bus party.

After one of the bus party is secretly eaten out in public, screaming in agony while no one notices, everyone else gets up in the morning to find the villagers have returned. Turns out they were holding some sort of rave down at the local cemetery. They also serve the travellers a cooked human leg (donated by a reluctant villager) as they don't have any normal meat. As you have figured out the village is full of vampires and the travellers are all on the menu. Problem is, the travellers haven't figured it out yet.

While not overflowing with gore or nudity (although it has a bit of both), this one is quite well paced for a Spanish horror film and has a nice creepy atmosphere throughout. There's a ghostly kid who hangs out with a travelling kid, the countess who seduces one of the bus party, and the whole thing reminded me a bit of Messiah of Evil, what with the entire town turning up and silently descending on the victims. There's also a bit of humour, what with the vampire with axe having to villagers to 'donate' body parts.

As with most Spanish films, I have no idea if this is cut or not…but it's a good 'un

A typical Spanish terror of the seventies in which a busload of tourists stops in to visit a small European town. Seven very tired passengers : Ernesto (Indio González), Godo (Luis Ciges), Cesar (David Aller), Marcos (Manuel de Blas), Alma (Dianik Zurakowska), Raquel (Charo Soriano), and Raquel's eight year old daughter Violet are traveling by bus to Bojoni (filmed in Spain). Suddenly, the bus driver (L. Villena) suffers a strong stroke. When they arrive in Tolnia, however, there is not a soul to be seen, except for Luis (Jack Taylor), an American traveler who arrived in Tolnia about an hour ago and has been walking around the village looking for someone...anyone. Later on , they mett the village Major Boris (José Guardiola) who apologizes and explains that the villagers were at the cemetery yesterday, paying their respects to a recently-deceased villager. They also meet a beautiful but suspect woman (Helga Liné) who claims to be the countess of the place. What they don't know is that the town is completely inhabited by vampires. When the moon is up the fun begins !.

Eerie film containing suspense, tension , vampirism and lots of blood and guts with abundant sensationalistic scenes and a Naif style. This is a Spanish Horror dealing with a motley group of passengers who decide to drive to the near village of Tolnio instead, to spend the night and follow to Bojoni on the next morning where a host of spooky surprises await them , being really filmed in Madrid surroundings, such as: Patones, Talamanca del Jarama, Torrelaguna and in Uceda, Guadalajara, Castilla-La Mancha. Director Klimowsky adequately demonstrates his skill and craftsmanship in the field of terror, acquired through mutual work with horror expert and Fantaterror icon Jacinto Molina or Paul Naschy (Marshall of hell, Rebellion of dead one or La rebelión de las muertas , Werewolf shadow ,Dr Jekill vs. The werewolf). The movie has a bit of ridiculous gore with loads of blood similar to tomato. B-entertainment with a fairly suspenseful and horrifying story in which bloodthirsty vampires wreak havoc and undergoing a criminal spree by means of dismemberments, slitting, decapitation and other brutal executions. The script is quite frightening and ghastly, including some disgusting, loathing images at a meal, scenes that would be copied in another successful horror film ¨It happened at Nightmare Inn (una vela para el diablo) ¨ (1973) directed by Eugenio Martín , that's why it was also written by the same screenwriter, the notorious Antonio Fos. As usual, two versions were filmed, one with no nudity for the Spanish public that was heavily censored due to the strict repression from the Francoist regime and one with nudity for the international market.

The photography by Antonio L Ballesteros is very mediocre and too dark, therefore a perfect remastering is necessary to clarify the colors. This strange motion picture was middlingly but professionally directed by Leon Klimovsky and plenty of flaws and gaps . Klimovsky was born on October 16, 1906 in Buenos Aires, Argentina as León Klimovsky Dulfano . Founded Argentina's first film club in 1929 . Began his film career making short movies . Settled in Spain in the 1950s and became a Spanish citizen . Klimovsky was a slick craftsman who directed all kind of genres, usually working for Paul Naschy. He made his directorial debut with El Jugador (1947) based on the Dostoyewsky story of the same name. Of his 80 films as director, he shot almost 70 in Spain, but most are B-grade products, characterized by their diversity. These include the adaptation of Pedro Antonio Alarcón's La Picara Molinera (1955), the comedy Viaje de Novios (1956) and Ramón y Cajal's biography entitled Salto a la Gloria (1959), and even wild melodramas like Ama Rosa (1960) and he was one of the four directors who made the oriental fantasy Los Amantes del Desierto (1957). He also worked as an actor, highlighting his intervention in the film Maravillas (1980) by Manuel Gutierrez Aragón. Klimovsky was a prolific director and writer , especially known for his terror films as La Noche De Walpurgis (1971), La Orgía Nocturna De Los Vampiros (1973) , La Saga De los Drácula , La Rebelión De Las Muertas , Doctor Jekyll Y Hombre Lobo , but he also directed other genres as Wartime : Operación Rommel , June 44 attack force Normandy, Bridge over Elba, En Ghentar Si Muore Facile , The Legion of No Return ; thriller : Mean Mother ; Western : Reverendo Colt , 2000 dollars for Coyote , Few Dollars for Django, Death Knows No Time , Rattler Kid , A dollar for Sartana ; and Drama : La Casa De Las Chivas , Salto a La Gloria. Rating : 5.5/10, acceptable and passable . Well worth watching .The picture will appeal to Spanish Fantaterror fans.
