Back of the box:
In this weirdly erotic film, a young woman is seduced by a lesbian vampire
into joining the ranks of the undead. Think of Lemora as a kind of fangy
paean to Night of the Hunter. The movie, which was banned by the Catholic
Film Board for more than two decades, is presented here in its uncut
version.
The Bloody Truth:
Early vampires versus werewolves? Good versus Evil?
Is true evil predestined and laying dormant in some of us? The movie asks
many question yet the story reveals little and goes nowhere fast. It's best
to judge it for yourself and if you enjoy 70’s supernatural horror its worth
your time. Better than some, but worse than many.
The movie is mysterious and often intriguing. From the beginning it has
the unmistakable feel of the classic supernatural thrillers and this is a good
thing. Also the movie was banned by the Catholic Church. I believe it's
due to some slight elements that a priest might be attracted to his beautiful
adopted daughter. We all know how far fetched such priestly indiscretions
are so I fully understand the ban...
The Nightlife here is always
dangerous
And the rest.....
