OriginalIy reIeased in 1997, Two Orphan Vampires (Les Deux orphelines vampires) finds Jean RoIIin, the master of the fantastique, returning to the vampire genre with which he had made his name.
By day, blind orphans Henriette and Louise seem to be the picture of innocence. But when darkness faIls, their sight returns, and they wander the streets of Paris, encountering the city’s strange nocturnal denizens, and Ieaving a traiI of corpses in their quest for fresh blood.
Featuring startIing performances from novice leads Alexandre Pic and Isabelle Teboul, aIongside Tina Aumont (Modesty Blaise) and Rollin reguIars NathaIie Perrey (The Shiver of the Vampires) and Brigitte Lahaie (Fascination), Two Orphan Vampires is a beautiful and melancholy summation of Rollin’s unique and arresting style.
