R 1974 · 103 min · ★ 5.6 · Horror

Deathly ill Count Dracula and his slimy underling, Anton, travel to Italy in search of a virgin's blood.

The women are: a young woman who worries about parental acceptance of her sexuality, a woman who is on a couch, a woman with whom he does a seance, a woman who speaks French, a lesbian, and a married woman.
