Castle Keeps
17 August 2008
Warning: Spoilers
***SPOILER ALERT*** Only worth watching for it's star attraction the bust-out Swedish actress Anita Ekberg in a duel role as top Italian fashion model Sylvia Morel and 17th Century burned at the stake witch Malenka.

Sylvia gets the news that she inherited the Wadrick Castle and the title of countess on the eve of her wedding to handsome Dr.Pietro Lufuani. It soon turns out that Sylvia didn't just inherit the castle and title of countess but her creepy Uncle, the keeper of Waldrick Castle, Count Walbrooke's bloodlines. The Count's bloodlines goes back some 600 years to the area around the Carpathian Mountains in Medieval Europe.

It's doesn't take a genius to realize that Uncle or Count Walbrooke isn't as young as he looks being that he died at least over 100 years ago. It's also very obvious, from the moment you lay eyes on him, that the pasty looking and ice cold to the touch Count Walbrooke is actually a member of the living dead, a blood sucking vampire! Who needs fresh and above room temperature, at 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit, human blood in order for him to survive.

Keeping the beautiful Sylvia under lock and key in his castle Count Walbrooke attracts the attention of not only her far off, back in Rome, fiancée Dr. Lufuani but the terrified townspeople of near by Wadrick! Of whom, mostly sexy and well endowed young women, the Count feeds, or sucks, on for his daily or nightly supply of human blood! It also turns out that the Count later, after sucking them dry, turns his victims into vampires like himself to join his army of the walking dead.

Traveling to Wadrick together with his friend Max Dr.Lufuani attempts to rescue Sylvia from Count Walbrooke's clutches only ending up a prisoner in his castle. Sylvia who during the entire time played along with her sinister Uncle Walbrooke, in making believe she was hypnotized by him, frees the chained up Dr. Lufuani just before the Count was to take a bite out of him. It's later in the movie that the good doctor gives the Count the medical prescription needed to cure his craving for human blood: A flaming stake in the heart cooked medium to well done!
