A Modern Vampire Tale
20 May 2015
In Los Angeles, a group of friends of Donna (Donna Anders) reunites for a séance conducted by Count Yorga (Robert Quarry) to make contact with Donna's mother, who has recently died and was having a love affair with the Yorga. Paul (Michael Murphy) and Erica Landers (Judith Lang) drive Count Yorga home in an isolated manor and in the return, their Kombi gets mysteriously stuck in the mud. On the next day, they have no recollections from the previous night and Erica has lost blood. Dr. James 'Jim' Hayes (Roger Perry), who is a family friend, sees Erica drinking the blood of a cat and he believes that Count Yorga is a vampire. Paul decides to go to Yorga's house and disappears and Donna's mate Michael 'Mike' Thompson (Michael Macready), Jim and Donna decide to pay a visit to Count Yorga late night. When Donna also disappears, Jim and Mike plan to hunt Yorga down to save Donna. Will they succeed in their intent?

"Count Yorga, Vampire" is a modern vampire tale, with a tedious beginning and an entertaining but predictable conclusion. The plot has a poor and rushed initial development and uses the usual clichés where the vampire hunters chase the vampire during the night, and not along the day. My vote is six.

Title (Brazil): Not available on DVD or Blu-Ray
