Prince Of The Night

Helietta Canins (Barbara De Rossi) requests the help and knowledge of professor Paris Catalano (Christopher Plummer) to help her to get rid of all the rumors still surrounding her luxurious venetian mansion. According to the legend, Helietta's grandmother has been abducted by the mighty Nosferatu himself (Klaus Kinski). But when Professor Catalano discovers in the basement of Helietta's palazzo the vampire's crypt, he realizes that there could be some terrible truth to all rumors about the existence of an unholy undead in Venice.

Produced and partially directed by Augusto Caminito (Abel Ferrara's King Of New York), Prince Of The Night is a true gem in the canon of the Italo vampire genre. Harking back to atmospheric texture of the classic films of the sixties, this reworking of the immortal Nosferatu myth has become a classic in its own right. Even though Klaus Kinski raged like a madman on the set, urging the producer to fire various directors such as Mario Caiano, Maurizio Lucidi and Pasquale Squitieri, Caminito got the job with a little help from Luigi Coxxi of Contamination fame. With an all star euro horror cast that features Donald Pleasence and Yorgo Voyagis, and the beauty of Barbara De Rossi, the Prince Of The Night is back to haunt your DVD collection.
