A truly amazing and utterly spellbinding take on the vampire theme, with the director, the late Jean Rollin successfully mixing elements of the fairytale, surrealism, horror and erotica into a striking visual feast that is almost devoid of dialogue. Centring on two young women on the run after a robbery, and a New Year's Eve party where they had dressed as clowns. The pair end up aimlessly wandering the countryside before taking refuge in a crumbling and abandoned castle. (Salvation)

The French film Requiem for a Vampire does not particularly stand out in Jean Rollin's work. It's exactly what you expect from him, but it’s not as colorful as his other films. Even so, there are some great shots, be it of human bodies or landscape elements. Jean Rollin knew how to play with the camera and he proves it with every film he makes, especially from the late 60s and 70s.
