This is a strange tale, but one that works well and holds the attention...well it did mine anyway.
A family of vampires headed by Rev. Alexander Algernon Ford (Gavin Reed) take hold of a place in England called Carfax Abbey with a very odd plan in mind.
He contacts several women whom he claims are related to him and asks them to come over for a lunch date sometime. When the women agree, they soon find themselves trapped in the abbey by Ford and his vampire brides.
The reason he wants them there is to use a breeding stock to keep their depleted bloodline alive and well. Suffice to say things don't go as planned and so the vampires decide to move to America and start all over again.
This is a pretty standard vampire film with the usual Milligan gore effects, of which there isn't much. I liked this movie and find it to be one of Milligan's best efforts.
The Severin Blu-ray comes from a nice 2k scan of the only remaining elements, and while the movie has a few rough spots, it's not to shabby at all. This Andy Milligan set is a great addition to any horror fans library, and there will be many more of his films reviewed here in the future.
The rest of the cast for this little thriller includes Jackie Skarvellis, Berweick Kaler, Susan Heard and Richmond Ross. Recommend thriller.
