I haven't seen this movie in at least 25 years but I still remember how fun it was to watch. The headmistress of this school for girls, takes an interest in one the girls and starts to give her private lessons. First she hypnotizes the girl with a big brooch that she always wears and then somehow turns her into a blood sucking vampire! I'm sure she must whip up some instant vampire potion along the way. It's great fun but it's not one of those movies that are so bad, they're good, this is pretty good and entertaining. It's along the lines of "I Was A Teenage Werewolve." Some creepy music, but no real scary moments. Just a fun 1950's drive-in double feature flick.
In BLOOD OF DRACULA, Nancy Perkins (Sandra Harrison) is dropped off at her new boarding school by her father and his new wife. While Nancy is busy settling in, she is unaware that science teacher, Miss Branding is working on a bizarre experiment. She's also looking for a human subject, someone who has Nancy's rather explosive temperament! Mad science and the occult merge, resulting in horror beyond all measure!
Sort of.
This movie is another lump of Limburger from AIP distribution. Much like THE SHE-CREATURE or VOODOO WOMAN, it's a story about the unleashing of the savage side of female human nature, and the hideous consequences thereof. The title comes into play in an absurd, non sequitur way.
As cinematic nonsense goes, this example is quite enjoyable. Just wait until you see Nancy's toothy transformation scene!
WARNING: This movie contains the song "Puppy Love"...

Yes...pretty much. It's very similar to "I Was A Teenage Werewolf." The real differences are that the protagonist is a female and of course the monster is a vampire instead of a werewolf. It's got pretty much the same ingredients: Teens, bad rock songs ( I personally think the songs are great ),hypnotism, monsters. Features a great opening scene and a cool graveyard attack set. I don't understand why this film is often pushed aside and seldom mentioned. Maybe it just needed to be called "I Was a Teenage Vampire." I think the atmosphere is pretty solid and I enjoy this picture enough to rate it an 8...yes an 8. Check it out.
Fairly amusing film about a girl in a reform school who's hypnotically turned into a vampire and sets out to kill a few classmates. Interestingly, this film reverses many horror movie cliches by making the young attractive heroine the monster herself. Some imaginative sequences, hokey dialogue with pretty good photography. Not as good as the more famous "I Was a Teenage Werewolf" or the much better "How to Make a Monster", but well worth watching for fans of drive in fun.
Blood of Dracula was one of my most memorable horror movies mostly because it centers on a female monster for a change.Louise Lewis is great as the mad teacher who tries to prove her theory.The makeup on the monster is a riot.It is the usual teenage horror movie with a few songs thrown in for fun.This film is typical 1950,s.Check out the ending when student-monster finally turns against teacher.It is one of the funniest,most entertaining scenes in the movie.

- GoofsDuring the first scene of the "stake" that will kill Nancy Perkins (Sandra Harrison), it is shown to be about four inches long. In the second scene, when it is protruding from out of her body, it is about one foot long and perceptively sharper at the end of it.
