31 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN DAY 26: INVASION OF THE BLOOD FARMERS 1972 (RETROMEDIA)

Blood seeking Druids are on the loose.

Ed Adlum directed this early 70's classic about a cult of ancient Druids. It seems that an ancient cult is trying to bring back their dead queen and will do anything to make this happen including kidnapping anyone and draining them of their blood.

This was filmed in upstate New York over three weekend for a reported budget of $24,000. This is not a spectacular film, but it is a good one for what it is, and the acting is pretty decent. The same team of movie makers made "Shriek of The Mutilated" next.

Tanna Hunter, as Jenny Anderson is very easy on the eyes and does her part well. She is the main target of the cult after they kill her dog and he boyfriend finds a key that will open the long locked tomb of the dead queen.

Very bizarre and unforgettable. I first saw the TV commercials for this film when I was 9, and although I never saw the film until much later, I never forget the ads.
