<\/a>Synapse Films’ new Blu-ray edition of Countess Dracula<\/a> <\/strong>(1971) presents the actress in perhaps her best role \u2013 she\u2019s shocking, lusty, witty, and fun \u2013 plus a few new extras, as the film was originally released 11 years ago on DVD as part of MGM\u2019s Midnite Movies series.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
<\/a>Vastly superior Italian art to the cheap AIP poster which features images nowhere to be found in the film!<\/p><\/div>\n
<\/a>Ingrid does indeed lose her head, but Kate never kneels before Zod as depicted quite falsely in this Spanish poster.<\/p><\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
That double-bill disc also included Pitt\u2019s better-known film, The Vampire Lovers<\/a><\/strong> (1970), which Scream Factory \/ Shout Factory released last year on Blu. I\u2019ve added a review of that disc, plus Pitt\u2019s film debut \u2013 a silly Spanish shocker ripe for a good remake called Sound of Horror \/ El sonido de la muerte<\/strong><\/a> (1966).<\/p>\n Coming shortly:<\/em> Twilight Time revisits actress Nancy Kwan in a new Blu-ray edition of Fate is the Hunter<\/strong> (1964) + a review of the forgotten B-film The Corrupt Ones<\/strong> (1967).<\/p>\n Cheers,<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Mark R. Hasan<\/strong>, Editor An Ingrid Pitt triple bill: reviews of Countess Dracula (Synapse) and The Vampire Lovers (Scream Factory) on Blu + her debut in the Spanish indie non-shocker, Sound of Horror \/ El sonido de la muerte (1966) !<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":9453,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"spay_email":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false},"categories":[18],"tags":[2958,2950,2562,2563,2959,2956,2960,2961,2957],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/kqek.com\/mobile\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/IngridPitt_featured.jpg","jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p8nuyW-2sj","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kqek.com\/mobile\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9443"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kqek.com\/mobile\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kqek.com\/mobile\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kqek.com\/mobile\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kqek.com\/mobile\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=9443"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/kqek.com\/mobile\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9443\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9457,"href":"https:\/\/kqek.com\/mobile\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9443\/revisions\/9457"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kqek.com\/mobile\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/9453"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kqek.com\/mobile\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=9443"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kqek.com\/mobile\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=9443"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kqek.com\/mobile\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=9443"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}<\/a>That film is currently out on Alpha on DVD and on YouTube<\/a>, but what\u2019s really needed is a proper widescreen DVD edition, since the film also co-stars Soledad Miranda, Jess Franco\u2019s other favourite muse, who died in a car accident not long after making a splash in Vampyros Lesbos <\/strong>(1971).<\/p>\n
