CGiii Comment

Just like its sister film - Blood for Dracula - the cinematography and soundtrack are excellent. Thanks (wholly) to the European crew.

And then, there's the dialogue and direction...masterfully mangled by Morrissey.

Margheriti only lent his name in order to secure funding (he was duly prosecuted) and Warhol gave his name so that it could be distributed. Both men fully entrenched up their own arses.

This is bollocks.

The(ir) Blurb...

In Serbia, Baron Frankenstein lives with the Baroness and their two children. He dreams of a super-race, returning Serbia to its grand connections to ancient Greece. In his laboratory, assisted by Otto, he builds a desirable female body, but needs a male who will be super-body and super-lover. He thinks he has found just the right brain to go with a body he's built, but he's made an error, taking the head of a asexual ascetic. Meanwhile, the Baroness has her lusts, and she fastens on Nicholas, a friend of the dead lad. Can the Baron pull off his grand plan? He brings the two zombies together to mate. Meanwhile, Nicholas tries to free his dead friend. What about the Baron's children?
