How is that legal?

Release Date: November 8th

No soundtrack?

I'll probably place an order regardless based on the merits of the plot synopsis I've read. I also like that there's an X-rated movie included as a bonus.

I look forward to being a part of the class action lawsuit

Saw a midnight showing of this @ The Nuart recently. This movie is bonkers!

[kinkyqueen]

Totally love this flick, because it's amusing as hell, but shipping from Diabolik for Europeans is getting insane. Total costs were $47,50

[Kriztoffer Swank]

I Drink Your Blood is perhaps the ultimate exploitation flick. It's a ton of fun and has been one of my most anticipated Blu-rays for several years. Can't wait.

[Mr. Thomsen]

Saw a 35mm print of this at the local film museum a few years back (I suspect it was actually the print owned by Grindhouse Releasing, as they also showed a fresh US print of Cannibal Holocaust around the same time). It's a hell of a ride! Very much looking forward to revisit it!

[GasmaskAvenger]

I've held off long enough for the old DVD release (which absolutely blew me away with how loaded it was back in the day) so you know what? Screw it!

I placed a pre-order for the blu-ray. Now I can finally say I own yet another grimy relic of early 70s splatter.

Would be extra awesome if I get the needle, but if I don't, so what. I'm getting the full double feature in HD, so i'm very much happy with the disc in itself.

That is absolutely preposterous and I love it.

I wonder if people are going to go as "rabid" over this hypodermic needle as they did over the bonus puzzle in Grindhouse's "Pieces" release!

[Ruined]

I think this extra is on par with the barf bags we see sometimes, and in fact is kind of nasty. Am I the only one who doesn't want a syringe? Lol.

You're not. Mine will go straight in the trash bin. I was 9 years old many, many years ago.

I guess I'm still 9 years old, because to me, that's awesome!

[Catastrophe]

For those who've actually seen the movie, how is it?

It seems like it's pretty bad, but is it just plain bad, or so bad it's good?

I've been curious about this one since seeing a trailer for Grindhouse's DVD release (on some other Grindhouse release that I own) but something tells me this one might be a stinker.

Don't throw it in the trash bin - you can put it up on ebay or I am sure there is someone on this board who would love to have it.

I pre-ordered mine from Diabolik early so I'll get one - I might not be 9 years old either, but I think it is a fun, clever tongue-in-cheek novelty item.

It's neither; it's fackin' good. If you don't dig low budget horror and exploitation, though, it's probably best to avoid. But it's a legitimately entertaining movie and not one I know anybody who enjoys in an ironic fashion.

[Firecrackker]

The cover art change makes me not want this anymore. It's really ugly.
