Le frisson des vampires (The Shiver of the Vampires, 1971)

"This is where the living make a religion of respecting the dead. This is where the dead make a religion of preserving their lives."

Rollin is always playing in dreamscapes‚ nearly exclusively in his mainstream (ie non porn) work‚ but here more than ever he #seems to be revelling in it‚ even as he pushes it to another remove (a second step of othering nearly: not just a dream‚ but the #conscious performance of a dream). all of this is provided‚ like vibes and mood‚ by the bucketful; plotting and dialogue come a perhaps #necessary second (even by Rollin standards‚ this is ethereal and loosely fitted together‚ scenes blending into scenes without much regard #for cohesive story beats). didn't grab me and hold me like other Rollin films have but there's certainly something here‚ and visually #this is as interesting and as rich as any of the director's works. solidly weird proggy soundtrack too!
