Watch I Drink Your Blood For Free

A brilliant film that helped define a genre

Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

I Drink Your Blood is a cult horror flick that was pretty original for its time and most famous for being the first picture to receive an X rating for violence. When satanic hippies rape a local girl and get the grandfather all wacked out on LSD, an angry kid injects their food with rabies. When the Manson like clan finish consuming their meal, they get sick and go stark raving mad, having the once quiet rural town going hog wild from a rabies outbreak. By today's standards, the violence and gore is quite tame. However, for 1970 I Drink Your Blood broke new ground for this stuff and was quite shocking for audiences in its day. For low budget grindhouse horror, I Drink Your Blood delivers the goods. This very campy and entertaining film has blood, boobs, devil worship and rabid lunatics foaming at the mouth, running around killing people. There is a nod to Romero's Night Of The Living Dead, but I Drink Your Blood kicks it up a notch and is a great and totally outrageous film that horror and exploitation fans should enjoy. If campy, old school hippie horror is your bag I Drink Your Blood will not disappoint and you will shout back, "right on baby" with this one.

I grew up with movies dating back to the 80s, but unfortunately, that's as far back as I got. The 80s may have been a great time for movies, but the 70s deserves a chance to be looked at. There are plenty of decent classics from the seventies. Is this movie one of them? Well, the movie is about a Satanic cult, led by Horace Bones (Bhaskar Roy Chowdhury) who terrorize a small town and a little kid tries to defeat them by making them rabid. This only ends up making the threat worse, turning them into zombie-like psychopaths... yeah, the plot is stupid, but the trailer makes it sound menacing. In fact, the trailer is probably the scariest thing about the movie. I love the music; it's freaking insane. The music's vibes will almost drive you a bit crazy. The movie is rated X for nudity, sex and excessive gore. The dialogue and acting are horrible. It makes little sense, it's hammy, it's ridicules and it's totally forgettable... but not bad enough to not be funny. It kind of reminds me of Night of the Living Dead. So when the cult sexually assault Sylvia, (Iris Brooks) the ******-off grandfather, Dr. Banner (Richard Bowler) confronts them, only to be dosed with LSD. The kid, Pete Banner, (Riley Mills) shoots a rabid dog and takes a sample of its blood, injecting meat pies with it, and selling it to the hippies. Speaking of which, there's a lot of instances of animal cruelty, such as slitting a chicken's throat in a ritual... wait, WHAT?! That part really freaked me out. And, of course, shooting a rabid dog. Well, after being infected with rabies, the cult members become cannibalistic murderers... well, most of them. Some commit suicide before they turn, and to make matters worse, one cultists have sexual intercourse with a construction crew, spreading the rabies to them. Well, that's as far as I'll go with that for now. Oh, one more thing, what's with the title? I Drink Your Blood? Ironically, there's not much blood drinking in this. Well, this movie is also known as Satan's Bande or Hydro-Phobia. Well, this movie may be bad, but it's interesting, to say the least. I consider this to be "The Room" of the 70s, because I enjoyed it despite it's notoriety. The dialogue is ridicules, the story is unique, and it certainly has shocking moments. I rate this a 7 out of 10; it's not perfect, but I liked it.

Gory, obscure, raunchy and utterly demented independent cinematic exploitation-trash from the early 70's; that's what I live for! And "I Drink Your Blood" just happens to be one of the most – perhaps even THE most – quintessential titles to answer to this definition! The unquestionably deranged writer/director David E. Durston took as many contemporary sources of inspiration as possible and scripted down a crazed low-budget horror flick that is guaranteed to entertain all fans of the golden "grindhouse" classics. Judging by the title alone already, "I Drink Your Blood" obviously isn't the type of horror film that you watch for its incredibly suspenseful atmosphere (although some sequences are quite intense) or profound character drawings, but to get a lot of horror-related kicks and laughs out of it. This is a pretty sick- spirited puppy in terms of tone and content, but the final result is an often laugh-out-loud funny due to the amateurish acting performances, grotesque make-up arts and errors in continuity. Undoubtedly inspired by the Charles Manson killings, "I Drink Your Blood" introduces a group of drug-addicted hippies who call themselves the Sons and Daughters of Satan and throw devil-worshiping orgy parties in the woods during the middle of the night. The group passes through a little town called Valley Hill. The place is practically abandoned due to the construction of a new dam, but the hippies nevertheless manage to rise amok among people who left behind by raping a young girl and forcing the elderly veterinarian to take LSD. The grandson, who witnessed the hippies' vile behavior, decides to take revenge by processing the infected blood of a rabid dog into meat pies and then subsequently serving them to the hippies. The "prank" runs a little out of control when the hippies become homicidal and go on a killing spree across the area. Hell ultimately breaks loose when one of the female hippies gang-bangs with the construction workers and infects the whole lot of them. The great thing about "I Drink Your Blood" is that you often don't even properly realize how incredibly twisted and offensive it actually is. Many elements are totally bonkers and sick, like the rat-barbecue, forcing the old guy to take LSD, the self-initiated abortion, the dam workers gang-bang and – most importantly – the idea that the whole idea of spreading the rabies was thought up and executed by a 12-year-old kid! The gore is plentiful and outrageous, with multiple decapitations, impalement, disembowelment, stabbings and electric carving knife action! Apparently this was the first movie ever to receive an X-certificate based on violence alone, so I guess that should be enough argumentation for true horror fanatics to check it out. As far as I'm concerned, it's a must- see exploitation/grindhouse classic!

A group of Satan worshiping hippies begin to cause chaos around in a small town. When a young boy injects a bunch of meat pies with blood from a rabid dog as payback for tormenting his grandfather, the hippies go insane and embark on a gory killing spree in which the entire town in at their mercy.This is quite a shocking and bizarre little film. I'm surprised it's not more well-known. It was the first film to receive an X rating primarily for it's graphic violence. While it is certainly somewhat tame compared to today's gorefests, it still has some very sickening scenes of graphic violence. What surprised me more about this film was how intense and horrific it was as a film! Seriously, there is a good shock every minute! There is rarely a moment to breathe.In addition to that, it's plot(obviously inspired by the Manson family murders) is really quite original. The idea of killer hippies is quite ironic and yet still quite creepy considering how they were back then with their seemingly strange activities and their often legendary body odor. This film may seem dated to some, but I think part of it's charm is it's bizarre sense of nostalgia and old-fashioned humor.The film itself is kind of like a cross between NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD and THE LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT, but if you're looking for a good shocker full of surprises and gory violence, this is a must-see. One final note, if you're going to see this film for any reason, see it for Lynn Lowery's performance. Her character is nothing short of spine-tingling.
