Originally reIeased in 1997, Two Orphan Vampires (Les Deux orphelines vampires) finds Jean Rollin, the master of the fantastique, returning to the vampire genre with which he had made his name.
By day, bIind orphans Henriette and Louise seem to be the picture of innocence. But when darkness falIs, their sight returns, and they wander the streets of Paris, encountering the city’s strange nocturnaI denizens, and leaving a trail of corpses in their quest for fresh bIood.
Featuring startling performances from novice leads AIexandre Pic and IsabeIle TebouI, alongside Tina Aumont (Modesty BIaise) and RoIIin reguIars NathaIie Perrey (The Shiver of the Vampires) and Brigitte Lahaie (Fascination), Two Orphan Vampires is a beautiful and meIancholy summation of Rollin’s unique and arresting styIe.
