Trivia:
Originally to be titled "Killer Barbies", which is the actual name of the punk rock band that stars in the movie, but Mattel would not allow the use of their Barbie trademark name, so the word's spelling in the title (as well as all the references to the band's name in the movie) was ultimately changed to "Barbys".See more »

While driving on tour late night through a lonely road in the countryside of Spain, the van of the punk band "Killer Barbys" has an accident and breaks down. A creepy old man invites the group to spend the night in the castle of Countess Von Fledermaus (Mariangela Giordano) and presents himself as her secretary Arkan (Aldo Sambrell). Arkan explains that the mechanic is located 62 km far from the location and he tells that the Countess loves youths. Flavia (Silvia Superstar), Rafa (Carlos Subterfuge) and Mario (Charlie S. Chaplin) accept the invitation but Billy (Billy King) and Sharon (Angie Barea) stay shagging in the van.
When the musicians meet the Countess, they find that she is the ancient artist Olga Luchan and they question how she could keep so young. But sooner they discover that the Countess needs blood of young people to keep her beauty.
"Killer Barbys" is a typical Jess Franco's film with exploitation, low- budget, clichés, bad acting, naked women and lots of gore. I am not familiar with the Spanish punk band Killer Barbies but I laughed in some artless scenes and I liked the soundtrack. My vote is five.
Title (Brazil): "O Massacre das Barbys" ("The Barbys Massacre")
