This time vosotros reviewed a low-budget euro-70s movie about knights templar-themed zombies that rise from the dead to vampire up slutty blood and ride around town on mysteriously-sourced horses. It’s wacky. It’s zany. It likes to give the audience a reason to not be sad when a character dies. Perhaps they’re creepy. Perhaps they experimented with homosexuality in their youth. Perhaps they’re some kind of criminal. Content Warning: we discuss this movie’s casual depiction of sexual assault and rape. The movie doesn’t seem to think it’s that big of a deal, but it's honestly pretty upsetting. If you don’t want to see that or a child crying while being drenched in their mother’s lifeblood, watch the censored American cut.
