"The Vampire" is an eerie, haunting movie with lots of atmosphere. It has a decent musical score, nice set designs and chilling moments(catch the scene where the vampire attacks the young boy as proof).The acting is very good and the dubbing is done just as well. Direction is also a plus as the film moves along and sustains viewer interest. German Robles makes an imposing vampire-tall, thin and with fangs(the first time in film that this was done). The story involves a young woman on her way to claim part of an inheritance. A Doctor posing as a salesman arrives with her. They meet her Aunt, who has not aged-she became a vampire through Count Lavud/Mr. Duval(Robles). The Aunt helps the Count turn her niece into a Vampire as well but the Doctor saves the day along with the help of the young woman's other Aunt(believed to be dead). The only thing that was a negative was that you can see the strings moving the bat flapping through the air almost every time. Still, this is a must-see for all Vampire film fans.
