A band of satanist hippies roll into a town and begin terrorizing the local folk. They rape a local girl and her grandpa goes after them. He fails and is given LSD. This bothers his grandson and he gets back at the hippies by feeding them meat pies infected with blood from a rabid dog. They turn into crazed lunatics and begin killing and/or infecting everything in their path.

I Drink Your Blood is top quality exploitation garbage! The film brings together a range of trash flick elements, including devil worship, zombies, drugs and violence and moulds them all into one very fun slice of movie viewing! The film is poorly put together and extremely trashy, but that only adds to its charm. One of the main reasons why I Drink Your Blood works so well is because of the way it brings so many different things together, which means that the film never gets stuck on one theme, and therefore there's always enough going on to keep the audience interested. The plot focuses on a group of Satan worshippers. When one of their rituals is viewed by a young girl, the group take it upon themselves to rape her, before holing up in an old abandoned hotel in town. The girl's grandfather doesn't take too kindly to these actions and decides to go after the group with a shotgun - but quickly gets overwhelmed and ends up having LSD forced on him! By sheer chance, a rabid dog turns up and the grandson shoots it; shortly before taking his revenge on the Satanists by feeding them meat pies injected with rabies...

The first half of the film is something like your usual trippy seventies exploitation fare, and the second half more closely resembles a zombie flick as the gang develop rabies and go round killing/infecting everything in their path. This film is notorious for being gory, to such an extent that it doesn't even have a release here in the UK. The film doesn't disappoint with the gore either - there's plenty of bloody violence in this film, and it's committed with all manner of weaponry, from an axe to an electric carving knife! While the gore is nasty and somewhat realistic, it also has a great comic edge to it; and this keeps up with the fun style of the film, and unless you've got a serious lack of a sense of humour; I Drink Your Blood will mostly likely provide laughs for most viewers. The plot is thoroughly open ended and it's not easy to tell where it's going to go, which again is much to the film's credit. Overall, this may be a trashy flick without much credibility; but it's a hell of a lot fun, features a lot of good gore and it flows well; and I don't think you could ask much more of a seventies drive-in flick. Recommended!
