Movie-A-Day #105: The Fearless Vampire Killers (1967)

[FischerKing]

Plot Summary: The old bat researcher, professor Abronsius and his assistant, Alfred, go to a remote Transylvanian village looking for vampires. Alfred falls in love with the inn-keeper's young daughter Sarah. However, she has been spotted by the mysterious count Krolock who lives in a dark and creepy castle outside the village...

Another good vampire genre movie - one that I thoroughly enjoy. It's a Roman Polanski movie and he also acts in it as Alfred, Professor Abronsius' assistant. This is not really classified as a horror type of movie, but rather a spoof of sorts.

I was going to say yesterday that you had to put this in if you were going to do a vampire week. Great choice. Funny, funny movie for those who are students of vampire legend and movies.

Absolutely. Both my wife and I like the Vampire mythology, but I had never even heard of this movie until we were married. It was one of her favorites and since then it has become one of mine as well.
