Stevieboy666 This starts with a Manson style cult performing a Satanic ritual, which was quite popular in horror movies from this period. But when they force feed young Pete's grandfather with LSD the boy gets revenge by providing them with rabies infected meat pies. Genius! The gang were already violent but now, with froth foaming from their mouths, they embark on a senseless & bloody killing spree. Plenty of gore & action here, fair bit of nudity, a psychedelic soundtrack & some memorable performances make this essential viewing for lovers of cult exploitation. Scream queen Lyn Lowry has an uncredited, relatively minor role (she plays a mute so doesn't even speak), yet she is given much recognition for her part by distributors wanting to capitalize on her name.
HumanoidOfFlesh A group of satanic hippies called the Sons and Daughters of Sadus after performing some black magic rituals decide to hole up in a small town.It isn't long before residents take notice of the group and their deviant behavior.After hippies beat and humiliate his grandpa a young boy Pete decides to get revenge on the group the best way that he knows by feeding them rabies injected meat pies."Satan was an acid head".Definitely."I Drink Your Blood" by David Durston is one hell of an exploitation classic.The film is filled with cheap gore and crazy scenes of carnage.The script is wonderfully weird and the characters are colorful and gleefully off-beat.So if you are into rabid hippies and construction workers and "Night of the Living Dead" bloody rip-offs "I Drink Your Blood" will certainly leave you speechless.8 hydrophobic killers out of 10.
Chrysanthepop Durston's 'I Drink Your Blood' was a Grindhouse release alongside 'I Eat Your Skin'. I couldn't get a hold of the latter but managed to find the first. It's not exactly true to its title but it delivers what it promises, for the most part anyway, which is tacky gory fun. I was expecting more gore and viscera but was a tad disappointed on that front as most of it is reserved for the final semi-bloodbath sequence. Also, 'I Drink Your Blood' gets quite slow at times (fast forward is handy in such occasions). I was a little grossed out by the white faeces spilling out of the mouths of the infected. The acting, sound effects, visual effects, cinematography and dialogues are laughably bad. Then again, the movie's titled 'I Drink Your Blood' which is funny enough.
happyendingrocks Let's be clear right of the bat that I Drink Your Blood is not a horror film. Oh, I'm sure if you're curious about it, you've heard it described as "infamous", "shocking", "revolting", or some some such superlative adjective. And, indeed, I Drink Your Blood is all of these things, but not for the reasons you're thinking of. "Ruthlessly absurd" is probably a more accurate description of the events that unfold in this movie, and those who watch the film expecting a stomach-churning grindhouse affair are bound to be severely disappointed. However, those who enjoy movies that are so thorough and baffling in their ineptness that they become comedies by default will giggle like a stoned monkey while watching this glorious mess. I Drink Your Blood isn't "so bad it's good", it's "so awful it's amazing". And, mind you, I'm not complaining one bit.The story here is so nonsensical that we must suspect whoever came up with this idea was tripping as hard as the LSD-chugging cultists who form the core of the narrative. I don't need to crack any jokes about the plot line, because simply stating the events that occur in this film should be humorous enough.Here's the gist of it: A Satanic cult takes up residence in a town where the only signs of life are a one-family house and a bakery. When the grandfather of that one family takes a dislike to the cult because they raped his granddaughter, he confronts the motley bunch, who overpower him and force him to take lots of acid. The gentleman's precocious grandson concocts a revenge plot, and the lad draws blood from a rabies-infected dog and puts the blood into a batch of meat pies, which he then sells to the cultists. The cultists eagerly purchase these meat pies, because, as mentioned before, the only commercial business in the town is the bakery that makes the meat pies. After consuming the pies, the cultists become infected with rabies. The side-effects of this rabies infection include foaming at the mouth, extreme urges to kill anyone in sight, and a deep-rooted fear of water that forces them to shriek as if in agony whenever someone puts them in the shower or sprays them with a hose. The crazed hippie cultists go on a killing spree, but since there's no one in town for them to kill, they expend most of their energy trying to kill each other. The matriarch of the town's one family ventures to the outskirts of the town to seek help from her foreman boyfriend, who sends his crew to investigate. Before they start their investigation, their first order of business is to have sex with one of the particularly amorous cultists, who displays no signs of rabies until they put water on her, at which point, she flies into a spastic rage. The construction crew are then somehow infected with rabies themselves, and they join the rampaging horde. The madness culminates when a team of fortuitously arriving police officers descends upon the town and kills all of the infected parties in a barrage of gunfire. Then the little boy who injected the rabies blood into the meat pies runs through a field. The End.I Drink Your Blood certainly has plenty of the titular beverage on tap, but the execution of the splatter is more akin to the work Peter Jackson would later produce while whetting his film-making appetites than to anything in the traditional grand guignol canon. This whole film is too ridiculous to be offensive, although sequences involving the beheading of a chicken and an extended rat hunt do contain some animal slaughter that appears to be real, which might upset discerning viewers a wee bit. The special effects are largely decent, and there is a generous array of severed limbs and spurting arteries that should make gore fans happy. But it's pretty obvious that most of the happenings are played for intentional laughs, and even the Hee-Haw-style chase music seems to support the notion that the film-makers were aiming to make a splatter comedy instead of an actual horror film. Let's hope so, since they assuredly came a lot closer to the former than the latter.The ludicrous elements at play here should speak for themselves, and I didn't even mention plot points like a pregnant cultist who abstains from the meat pies and shows no signs of rabies, yet still opts to commit harikuri by impaling her stomach with a fencepost when she finds out her fellow Satanists have been infected. There's also a love story that blossoms in the midst of the carnage, which centers around a young girl who continues to encourage the ardor of her cult-dissenter beau, despite the fact that at the beginning of the film he takes her into the woods to watch one of the sect's sacrificial rituals, which leads to her being brutally raped and beaten by his fellow hippie Satanists.You may have seen movies of this caliber before, but I'm fairly certain that you have never seen anything quite like I Drink Your Blood. This masterpiece ventures into previously unexplored areas of bad cinema, and fans of films that are so terrible they defy reason should ignore my 6-star rating, because in that regard, this little gem is a clear 10. I Drink Your Blood is assuredly a must-see for C-movie fans and rabies meat pie enthusiasts alike.
