“This mysterious germ of the bacillus vampiris creates in the body of the vampire a fiery fluid, similar in chemical composition to that of hot glue, so that no bullet can cause any damage whatsoever to the flesh of the body of a vampire. The hot glue renders the bullets harmless, but wood turns the glue into water!” And now you know… the rest of the story. Join this episode’s Grue-Crew – Doc Rotten, Daphne Monary-Ernsdorff, Chad Hunt, Bill Mulligan, and Jeff Mohr – as they take in this unique Filipino horror film from National Artist of the Philippines for Film, Gerardo de Leon: The Blood Drinkers (1964).

In this episode, Daphne treats the rest of the Grue-Crew to a 1964 Filipino horror film from director Gerardo de Leon. Whether you know the film as The Blood Drinkers, Kulay Dugo Ang Gabi, Blood is the Color of Night, Color of Night, or The Vampire People, there are aspects and scenes of this film that will burrow their way into your permanent memory. Driven by the high cost of color film stock, de Leon and crew came up with a unique solution that makes the movie more interesting. The story also employs variations on vampire mythology to drive the conflict, although those variations might not make much sense. To top it off, a heart transplant, a surgical procedure first performed in January 1964, finds its way into the plot. Finally, the crew can only say… they hope you really like the theremin.
At the time of this writing, The Blood Drinkers (1964) is available to stream from the Classic Horror Movie Channel. It is also available on Blu-ray from Severin.
