In this video, I review Daughters of Darkness (1971), the hypnotic and erotic vampire masterpiece from director Harry Kümel, newly restored in 4K UHD by Radiance Films. Elegant, haunting, and soaked in atmosphere, this cult classic blends art-house sophistication with Gothic sensuality to deliver one of the most striking vampire films ever made. Set in a near-deserted seaside hotel, the film follows a newlywed couple who fall under the spell of the mysterious Countess Elizabeth Báthory (played with icy perfection by Delphine Seyrig). What begins as a seductive encounter soon becomes a slow descent into obsession, power, and bloodlust. Radiance’s new 4K release features a stunning restoration and a wealth of archival and newly produced extras that explore the film’s mythic allure and enduring cult status. 🔗 Where to Buy 📀 Radiance Films: https://radiancefilms.co.uk 📀 Amazon: https://amzn.to/4quuIBU 🙌 Support Man v Film 🔹 Join this channel for exclusive perks: / @manvfilm 🔹 Prefer Patreon?
