I started watching this movie by accident. I found that even with a sub par plot, minimal acting, and terrible effects this movie was a sexplotation delight. It was like a weird Bjork video but with better looking women. It was extremely subtly sexy and the framing and cinematography was superb. Considering the director had a cruddy plot, he worked wonders. The opening scene was odd, yet very well done.If you like watching sexy Euro women walking around scantly clad, and getting undressed for no apparent reason, creep yet sexy twins, and a very modest attempt at making something different, you will like this addition to the cheap horror movie genre.

Wealthy and decadent industrialist Georges Radamante (a nicely icy portrayal by Maurice Lemaitre) rules over a strange secret suicide cult and wants to acquire immortality by figuring out the biochemistry of a mute orphaned vampire woman (lovely and entrancing brunette Caroline Cartier). Complications ensue when Radamante's son Pierre (a likable performance by Oliver Rollin) finds out what's going on and falls for the comely lass. Director Jean Rollin, who also co-wrote the compellingly quirky script with S.H. Mosti, concocts an ingeniously weird, stylish, and poetic blend of horror and sci-fi elements that unfolds at a deliberate pace, positively drips with a hypnotically brooding and enigmatic atmosphere, and delivers several sizzling moments of inspired eroticism and kinky fetishism for good measure. In fact, the genuinely peculiar and mysterious, yet fascinating experimental vibe that pervades throughout certainly gives this picture its own singular identity. Rollin regulars and real-life twin siblings Catherine and Marie-Pierre Castel are sexy and captivating as Radamante's servant girls while Ursule Pauly is effectively nasty as the treacherous Solange. Jean-Jacque Renon's striking cinematography makes bold use of vibrant color and offers a few stunning surreal images. Yvon Serault's moody and atonal jazzy score does the wonky droning trick. Worth a watch for Rollin fans.

Bizarre vampire/sex fantasy about rich brat Martin, who stumbles upon secret bourgeois-like society, which conducts secret perverse ceremonies in a mansion rented by his father.Let me say, this is a prime example of style over substance. While I am sure there is substance here (most of which does not make any sense), that is overshadowed by colorful costumes, strange alien vampires and just an array of unpredictable moments -- many connected in some way to nude women.Best part of the movie? The chicks falling down the stairs. While one twin takes it pretty seriously, the other one is determined to reach the bottom step, even if she has to keep pushing herself. Sure, it does not look natural, but it got me chuckling a little.

From the title and the opening sequence of 'La Vampire Nue' it looks like you're in for a dreamlike erotic nudie vampire flick ala Jess Franco (which is not a bad thing mind you!). Very quickly though it metamorphoses into something more complex, and difficult to categorize. The mysterious and sensual title character played by Caroline Cartier actually has very little to do on screen, but is the key to the mysterious events involving scientists studying immortality, and a surreal suicide cult. A young man discovers his father is somehow involved in a secret society who favour animal masks and (apparent) murder. When he investigates he finds that not everything is as it seems, and that the enigmatic, mute beauty at the centre of it may hold the key to the future of mankind's evolution. A very strange, poetic and unique piece of 60s exploitation, quite unlike any other. I was fascinated by the whole thing. Highly recommended to fans of the offbeat and unusual.
