This week, we discuss two vampire films.

The first is Daughters of Darkness (1971), an erotic horror film co-written and directed by Harry Kümel and starring Delphine Seyrig, John Karlen, Andrea Rau and Danielle Ouimet. A newlywed couple's honeymoon at a deserted seaside hotel takes a sinister turn when they encounter the enigmatic Countess Bathory, whose seductive and vampiric nature threatens to consume them.

The second is Near Dark (1987), a neo-Western horror film co-written and directed by Kathryn Bigelow. A young man is reluctantly drawn into a nomadic gang of vampires after falling for a mysterious drifter, forcing him to choose between his humanity and his newfound bloodthirsty family.
