(5 out of 5 stars)

"As my title suggests, this film is an instant classic, albeit, of the grindhouse/exploitation genre. The director Duke Hendrix has a keen eye for 70's foreign film sensibilities, with many of his shots portraying a perfect blend of atmosphere and parody. The narrative is as old as the ages, like Homer (or Ulysses depending on your historical preference) Count Bloodspit just wants to go home. Aided by his menagerie of kooky emo sluts, a scottish vampire with a foul mouth and temper, a wolfman who can't stop grooming his genitals and some weird geeky transvestite, he sets out on his way, but little does he know his arch nemesis Dr Ludvig and his assistant Mr Handsome, are hot on his trail.
Hendrix is a master craftsmen who uses his palette well, he seamlessly blends gore, sex, violence, atmosphere and humor to paint a picture worthy of remembering. Let's hope that Hollywood picks this guy up and lets him loose on one of the horror franchises or even better a Batman movie."
