Plot
Summary: |
Susan, a young bride, travels with her husband to his family’s ancient manor
house in the far north of Spain. Susan is a virgin and is very hesitant about
her husband's sexual demands. She is also disturbed by her unfamiliar
surroundings and wonders if she will ever come to terms with her new married
life. She is shocked to discover that all the old portraits of female members of
her husband’s family have been locked away in the basement. When she finds them,
she discovers that one of the portraits shows a woman holding a strange dagger.
The woman’s face has been cut out of the painting. Her name is Mircala Karstein.
This atmospheric, gothic horror story is widely regarded as one of the very
best vampire films ever made. Controversial in its day for sexual content and
for extreme scenes of violence and gore, it was widely cut on original release.
This brand new version restores the film to its intended length and includes
alternate scenes that have never been made available before. This is the first
Blu-ray release of an acknowledged classic, one of Quentin Tarantino’s favourite
films and an influence on his own Kill Bill.

Reviews:
When it comes to florid and fevered 70s horror and sexploitation, it
doesn't get much better than this. --Staci Layne Wilson Horror.com
The Blood Spattered Bride is an intelligent take on feminism and
sexual politics that's got atmosphere to spare. I highly recommend it.
--Final Girl
Spanish director Vincente Aranda infused the film
with plenty of eerie atmosphere and dark sexuality. Highly recommended
to the discerning horror fan. --Film Threat
