I seems that I'm the first to comment on Vampire Sisters, OK IMDb'ers
this is what I think... Vampire Sisters starts on a dark misty night,
an unidentified man is running towards a large house & in pursuit are
two women. The man ends up in the basement of the house & is cornered
by the women, then a third woman throws some rope around him. The three
women are Stacy (Jeannie Michelle Jameson) who looks about 6 feet tall,
Dawn (Darla Albornoz) the young(ish), cute, normal good looking one &
Tasha (Syn DeVil) whose breasts look so over inflated she might topple
over at any point. Together they run a website called VampSisters.com
which covers a multitude of fantasies like S & M, voyeurism or just
good old fashioned sex. This guy is a customer of the site & has been
invited to fulfil his own fantasy with the Sisters so what has happened
so far is just his own personal kink. Before he knows it he's upstairs
handcuffed to a bed. OK this guy is obviously having fun so far but
things quickly change as the Sisters kill him, drink his blood & chuck
his body in their shed out back where something named Iggy (Steven
'Proz' Prosser) sees to the left overs... Soon after another man named
Frederick Smith (Bill Debrason) who's into pain arrives & is duly
dispatched by having a meat hook whacked into his family jewels, ouch.
Again the Sisters drink his blood & dispose of the body in the same
way. Just so there is some sort of plot in Vampire Sisters two vice
squad detectives named Sonny Renko (Mark Lassise as Mark C.Lassise) &
Jennifer Hunt (Leanna Chamish) notice that the VampSisters.com website
is local & that they are offering addition 'services' to their highest
spending customers, they decide to take an interest & monitor the site.
By a coincidence they discover that several customers of
VampSisters.com have disappeared recently, Sonny increases his spending
on the site in the hope of an invitation which eventually arrives via
e-mail. Sonny & Jennifer set out to the Sisters house only to find
terror & bloodshed...
Directed by Joe Ripple who also appears in the film & has an
'additional music' credit as well, I personally think it's films like
Vampire Sisters that's killing the horror genre, Vampire Sisters is
quite simply a real bargain basement, bottom of the barrel piece of
crap excuse for a film. The script by Don Dohler who also edited,
wrote, produced & photographed the thing is absolutely terrible. It's
just these three Vampire Sisters luring guys & gals back to their house
putting on a bit of a sexual fantasy for them because at one point one
of the Sisters claims that 'blood tastes better if the victim is
sexually aroused', killing them & drinking their blood. Sounds good,
right? Wrong, it becomes incredibly boring after the third time as it's
not particularly graphic in either a sexual or violent sense. Vampire
Sisters main ambition seems to be nothing more than produce a cheap,
pathetic & miserable attempt at mild titillation followed by a silly
gore effect. The actual story about the two vice squad detectives
investigating them is almost none existent, their given about 5 minutes
worth of screen time for the first hour & are merely there to try &
give the impression that something else is happening when in fact it
isn't. There is no attempt at any sort of character development. The
three Vampire Sisters themselves are odd, Stacy is just so tall & in
certain scenes looks like she's a man, Tasha's enhanced breasts are
just horrible & saggy looking which leaves Dawn as the only attractive
one & somewhat predictably she doesn't take her clothes off. The gore
effects are limited, mostly confined to splashing blood but there is a
scene where a man has his eyes drilled out, or should that be drilled
in? The special effects are awful as well, the blood looks far too
runny, almost like red water. There are a couple of brief CGI shots &
again they're awful. Surprisingly there isn't much nudity either.
Technically Vampire Sisters is awful, the acting is unbelievably rotten
all the way through. The photography sucks, on the making of
documentary on the DVD it clearly shows that Vampire Sisters was shot
on a digital camcorder & as a result it doesn't look like a film, it
was probably shot in natural light & everything looks bland, muddy &
just plain boring. It also says on the documentary that Vampire Sisters
was shot in the directors house, get used to it as the film almost
exclusively takes place there. The direction is terrible, there's no
close ups, establishing shots or any camera ticks to break up the
tedium of point shoot & hope for the best, the film fails to generate
any tension or atmosphere whatsoever. Ripple obviously used the
quickest set up that he could with the least number of shots he needed
for the scene to work, well work in his eyes anyway. The average
Mexican soap opera has better production values & looks like more
effort was put into it. I could probably go on all day about how bad
this film is but I don't want to even think about it anymore, the only
positive thing I can say is that some of the outfits that the girls
wear look quite nice especially the fetish ones & that in a way it's
quite a good idea for a film. It's just a shame that the finished
product ended up as throughly bad as it did. Please don't waste your
money on this crap & then maybe these types of filmmakers will be
forced to rethink the rubbish they make & actually start to put some
effort in their films. Absolutely awful.

this is pretty medicre film-making, even at the low-budget level. Sure
the concept of some vampire babes using the net to trick guys into
coming to their house to get some action only to feed on their blood is
a cool idea. But the slow uninspired way that this happens is really
not very exciting. I'm a fan of hot chicks and especially big tits so
it was nice to see Syn DeVil as one of the vamps, but even her
inclusion doesn't really make a difference.
The story is boring, basically just the same thing over and over and
over til the cops come. Sure, the scary thing/brother in the shed is
supposed to be mysterious or something but it wasn't. Likewise, why
don't any of the victims just leave instead of creeping around the
house looking for somewhere to hide.
Plot holes big enough to fit a small city.

A lot of bad here, but one scene made the film worth it, 8 November 2006

Alright first off I must agree with the original reviewer who said that this type of film is killing the horror genre, and he's right, this film has a pointless throw together plot, and generally isn't very good. However I did dig a couple things. First there is a girl on girl scene with a nerdy looking French chick, and a hot Vampire vixen, that saved this film from being a total waste. I always recommend Seduction Cinema to lovers of erotic genre cinema, as those films deliver what you want, and are exactly what you expect them to be. Vampire Sisters has a lot of nudity from good looking girls, and the one really hot scene I mentioned, that features death by fellatio. Other then that don't expect much, the script, and acting leave a lot to be desired, effects are nothing special, and nothing surprising happens, as the film just kind of goes through the motions, and would be totally boring, if not for the nudity. I would say to fans of sexy vampire movies, give this a shot, just keep your finger on the fast forward button.
