Some kind of sadist, but not human, is murdering people. A doctor is convinced that the killings are the evil workings of a reclusive odd baron who died many years ago.

Best movie of this year hands down!
Highly Overrated But Still Good
The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
Wal Davis and Ada Tauler have appeared in several Jesus Franco films, many of the same ones. It causes one to suspect that the director, José Luis Madrid, may just be another name that Franco uses.This is not a Franco film. There is no blood as the vampire chokes his victims. Even though it is not Franco, there is no shortage of big naturals, as the vampire only attacks when the women are undressed. It is also unusual in the fact that he chokes, rather than the usual biting on the neck.You don't have to be a vampire completeist to enjoy the film. Just enjoy the victims, some of whom do not appear in any other film.
As cheesy as it can get. Really, this is terrible but is a must have for so many horror buffs. The only way to see this Spanish horror is on VHS. It never had a proper release and is only available by DVD-R sellers or on 'Excellent' VHS, a Dutch label. And even then it goes sometimes over 100 dollars. I have found it in excellent (no pun intended) state on a flea market for almost nothing.The acting is terrible and even the script sucks (again no pun intended). The vampire catches his victims not by his fangs but he strangle them. But it's a must see for the effects. The vampire do attack invisible. So you can guess how the victims move without seeing the vampire, really cheesy. There's also no blood to see just only when the stake is put into the hart of the vampire and even that is done by editing. But why it's watchable is the fact that all girls strip nude before they are killed. A boring flick with gratuitous nudity.Gore 0/5 Nudity 2/5 Effects 0/5 Story 1/5 Comedy 0/5
"El vampiro de la autopista" (called "The Horrible Sexy Vampire" in English) is mostly what we would expect from any Euro-horror flick from the early '70s, namely the women who exist only to strip, shower and get killed. What I can't understand is why the vampire strangles people instead of directly drinking their blood (or why he tells his descendant to stop him). As long as we just accept that this movie has basically no purpose accept to teach hot women not to remove their clothes - which itself presupposes that horny men are watching so as to see their big breasts - then it's a pretty fun flick. But not much else (maybe it would have been a little neater had it starred Paul Naschy). I actually got to watch a version dubbed in English with Dutch subtitles. Go figure!
This Spanish early Seventies movie is really boring in his depiction of several murders made by a really strange vampire (for most of the movie he is invisible and he doesn't bite the neck or other bodily parts of his victims - both male and female - but he strangles them, uh?), a German baron presumed dead in 1896.It comes to his debauched blond heir to kill him and permit him to rest in peace.Lot of assorted female nudities, almost always unrelated to sexual acts - the ladies are killed or assaulted during their baths - but very mitigated for today standards - but probably I've seen an edited version, because it was on Satellite TV -, so in the end the movie is totally dull, with a boring plot, bad acting, bad effects, no blood at all - and this is really strange for a so called vampire movie.
