The Count doesn’t love anybody, he can’t, that’s his fate.

There is a special place reserved in hell for the worst gialli, and as such, The Bloodsucker Leads the Dance is in good company with the likes of La Bambola di Satana (1969), Blackmail (1974) and many more “gems” yet to come. … There is an attempt at delivering a properly suspenseful thriller with some salacious elements, but it all reeks of sheer desperation. Suffice it to say, it is just one, sad, shoddy affair. … Production values are virtually non-existent. The lighting is flat and harsh throughout, generating zero atmosphere or mood. … The gore effects are laughably achieved and the sex scenes mostly consist of the actors listlessly and awkwardly pawing at each other with no sense of genuine passion.
