This is really wonderful but just as difficult to describe. Obviously it is about Vampires but nothing like anything else I have seen. It is certainly dream like and rather surrealist but this seems so obvious by saying that. The only film I can think anything like this is the films of Jean Rollin but not really because this one is so strange even though it seems simple as well. Jonathan is probably the only one in the film who seems normal and not like anyone else. His journey in the coach is a long time and all seems okay but then suddenly he finds everyone is dead, the man and the horses and then walking he eventually finds the castle. There the vampires, in red, seems to almost move as in dance and it is scary as the way they move not quite as lovely as you might think and we see blood. Robert Muller cinematography is splendid being Dutch and of many films like Breaking the Waves (1996), Paris,Texas (1984), Repo Man (1984) and Dead Man (1995). The last one is that of Jim Jarmusch's and seems to usually do all his films. The music is by the composer, Roland Kovac and there is something of the style of the work of E. T. A Hoffmann. The director, Hans W Geissendorer like most of the cast is German but has had many TV and films although seems to be best known, apart from Lindenstrobe, it was his long TV series, a weekly soap opera (1985-2020) the lives of the people of Munich, the controversial issues through the years like Homosexuality, drug abuse, domestic violence, rape, xenophobia, prostitution and Aids, which had many awards and of course big in the day when his first film was made this also received a German award.
