Anecdotes
The title is misleading. No orgy occurs in the film.

Gaffes
As Luis and Alma make their get away near the end of the movie, the horde of vampires attacking their car smash it's windows trying to get in. When the car breaks free and speeds away, all the windows are closed and intact.

Versions alternatives
This film, like many Spanish films from the late 60s through the end of the Franco era, shot their racy scenes twice, once with the actors nude, and then again with clothes on. The covered versions mostly appeared in Spanish prints, but not always. The nude scenes would be included in the dubbed versions that were offered for sale to just about everywhere else in the world. This film has three scenes where the actresses are nude, and these appear an English dubbed print retitled Orgy of the Vampires. The Pagan UK releases on VHS and DVD are the covered version of the film, and this version now appears in the US on DVDs of questionable legitimacy from Alpha and Sinema Diable.

To the hosts who can boast the most roast

Atmospheric and creepy tale of a group of travellers whose coach is diverted to the uncharted Spanish village of Tonia, where the locals disappear at night and emerge later as something other than human. Prolific US-Spanish leading man Jack Taylor is central to the defence, taking the lovely Alma (Zurakowska) under his wing until they can conjure an escape. A mysterious Countess (Line) and her off-sider, the town's unofficial mayor (Guardiola) try to convince the travellers to stay in town and enjoy their hospitality, boasting the best "roast" in the region - as another reviewer remarked, 'finger-lickin' good - the origins of which are somewhat dubious to say the least.

Impressive sets and locations really depict a sense of isolation, and the quaint town and its characters are all effectively drawn in spite of some bizarre sub-plots. There's an axe-wielding giant ("I'm here on behalf of the Countess") who pays visits to unwitting blacksmiths for 'meat' collections, a psychopathic child with a murderous streak, and of course the aforementioned sultry Countess, the alluring and strikingly attractive German beauty Helga Line. The scene in which she passively seduces one of the weary travellers is great erotic-horror.

Plenty of little oddities to capture the imagination, despite the ungainly title, Klimovsky's film is well-paced, intelligently scripted and very entertaining. Only the conclusion is somewhat disappointing. I didn't expect much, and was pleasantly surprised.
