Daughters of Darkness

Series: TGIQ

Thank God It's Queer gets spooky with queer Eurohorror classic DAUGHTERS OF DARKNESS (1971)!

Newlyweds Valerie and Stefan stop at a grand hotel in Belgium, coincidentally on the same stormy night as a timeless woman calling herself Countess Bathory (Delphine Seyrig), whom the hotel clerk swears he saw 40 years earlier as a child. With an unforgettable performance by the legendary Seyrig, style for days, queerness on all fronts, and an incredible score (sampled in hip-hop the world over) by François de Roubaix, Harry Kümel’s DAUGHTERS OF DARKNESS isn’t just any lesbian vampire film – it’s a deep, seductive, and unforgettably moody horror masterpiece that paved the way for THE HUNGER and countless successors.
