Vampirella comic mythical character, famous for being the superhero that more beer in these comics taught 70 to 80, is destroyed in this bizarre production of the Series B King , Roger Corman, directed by Jim Wynorski in 1996 . A film so tacky it makes your side look Xanadu Watch Kane. Before continue, I must say that I was wrong when I put 1996. Yes, I know that seems to be 1969, but no. This well written, I swear. Synopsis:
We are on the planet Drakulon (original name, I do not deny) for thirty centuries. This planet is that rivers run a kind of substitute for human blood, which feed its inhabitants, all vampires, but peaceful. But a lousy criminal called, certainly not adivinarÃais ever, Vlad, prefers sucking the blood from the jugular of his countrymen. At the time of going to trial, his friends presented at trial and charged to the entire court, presided over by the father of the protagonist (Talisa Soto ) and give the pyro in a spaceship that takes them to Earth for 30 centuries.
At this point the film jumps back in time to something that is supposed to be our immediate future, to introduce a kind of SWAT embroidered with crucifixes in their caps that are supposed to be a secret organization Slayer-in-command of the grandson of Dr. Van Helsing (Richard Joseph Paul ). The attack Vampire Slayer sort of lashing Mexican ranch where one of the friends of Vlad, that in the meantime has become Count Dracula monkey dressed in a striking fabric that looks like a plastic raincoat quite a hundred, and I have to tell them where he hides the count.
Currently Vampirella, who came behind Vlad, but technical problems had to do a stop of 30 centuries of anything on Mars, appears in what surely is the most tragicomic film . All that we adolescence during the 80 know how was the costume of this character, right? Well, for those who do not know, here's a sample.
What makes you horny? Well, in this movie ... yes.
At this point we must ask a question. Who was in charge of costume design in this film? Is the cousin Escriva eunuch? Looking for that photo I swear I've seen pictures of strange convention where more tailored pibas wore costumes and morbidity twice that ... thing?. Hell, we knew that the movie was crappy (Roger Corman expected no less) but it was supposed to compensate seeing plenty of chicha. But apart from a couple of appearances cortitos topless in one of the bad, nothing. But I can not go yet, we still have a lot of laughter to us.
Well, Vampirella and who does not like things he learns that Vlad, Count Dracula himself, this undercover ... as a singer in Las Vegas tacky. Roger Daltry invaluable in the role of the Count. Tears fall from the pure me laugh every time I think about it. Vampirella is presented in its action, it Camela, takes him to a quiet place, but when going to load, you see the crucifix on the cap and lashing them both. But when I brought to his headquarters, Vlad hypnotizes the driver of the van where they are, causing them to stick a pinnace, and escapes. Van Helsing junior takes to throw a pass at a Vampirella meantime.
Later the vampires kidnap the grandson of Van Helsing, and propose a change to the vampire that the crucifix on the cap are a prisoner. Vampirella must deliver the prisoner exchange, but the vampires give the prayer card scam and pyran. Vampirella are followed up by the Mexican ranch, where she's caught and locked in a dungeon with Van Helsing, after removing a serum that takes and takes as a substitute for blood. Without serum, Vampirella can not control his thirst for blood and blood sucking him Van Helsing, he hopes Vlad. To avoid this, Vampirella is chained with shackles to the wall and when you begin to notice the blood lust begins to writhe and scream. It is assumed that this scene is there to make morbidity, but the truth is that if you start out loud, is that you are not human. The great grandson of Van Helsing lets you suck a little blood (arm, sends eggs) to retrieve the forces, and escape. Then come the hats of the crucifix and together they manage to avoid the evil Vlad plan to darken the sky with a few satellites that release carbon, that vampires can hunt happily without fear of the sun. In the final fight, Vlad falls by lightning while fighting with Vampirella, and plunges on fire by a dam.
End of spoiler
strengths of this film:
special effects: the transformation the vampire bat is ... well, no words. The vampire becomes a shadow silhouette painted marker on the frame, it is growing into a small spot that goes away on one side of the screen. With two balls! Why spend four guys in a rubber bat, when we spend that money on sniffing glue?
fight scenes. That art, my god, that art! These movements ... this girl has a black belt, at least. Well, the final fight is slightly Curran. But there is that the warrior is a double (not a double, no, a double, look, mind you)
sequence Drakulon the planet. I did not know that vampires come from a planet that seems an airport.
Finally, an entertainment that will certainly make fans of the character fitted in righteous anger, but everyone else we preemitirá throw us a few laughs.
