Shame, cause I really wanted to find out more about the making of this gem, or at least see the director's cut mentioned above.Alex.

The comment re the noir vampire film makes sense, I got a bit of a feeling and now you said that it got lost in the cut I can see it more.<br /><br />You said that your cut was better - is there any thoughts of a director's cut at some point?<br /><br />Could I ask you, was I right, did Nick (Cage) steal Raymond's accent for his character in Vampire's Kiss?Taliesin_ttlghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10105263634442191232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23449634.post-6183907597529294882009-07-27T16:05:50.309-07:002009-07-27T16:05:50.309-07:00I made this film a very long time ago.

I had Isbella R lined up, but Dino D wanted Sylvia because of her erotic background. Sylvia was much older then and it would not have been fair to her to have her expose herself in any way. As a trade off, I promised Dino D the Satanist scene with the topless woman on the rack (she was a very nice stripper and enjoyed her big cinema moment). <br /><br />I remember wanting to make an extreme EC comic, noir vampire film...my cut was a lot better than Dino D's cut. But, hey, that's low budget filmmaking. Now that I am older, I would know how to work with the old pirate Dino D, get what I want, give him what he wants, balance it out and have a good time doing it. <br /><br />Anyhow, thanks for your negative review (mine would be too) because at least it was insightful and thought out.crcoppolahttp://www.crcoppolaproductions.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23449634.post-73169110497069120012009-07-26T22:14:37.771-07:002009-07-26T22:14:37.771-07:00The bats and the opaque blood tear were both posit...The bats and the opaque blood tear were both positives... cheers for stopping by ChristineTaliesin_ttlghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10105263634442191232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23449634.post-10092218946558588532009-07-26T17:10:11.101-07:002009-07-26T17:10:11.101-07:00Ah, the cute vampire bats are back!

A Uranium Cafe style cheese classice called The Beast from Haunted Cave. It is not a real vampire in but is a blood sucker. A vamp or not vamp debate. Thought of you as I watched it the other night.Billhttp://uranumcafe-the.comnoreply@blogger.com
