Plot
Summary
The film opens with a then controversial scene. John Karlen and his
bride, Danielle Ouimet, are making love on a train. When the train is
delayed, they miss their boat for the honeymoon cruise, and stay at an
empty resort hotel in the off season. Soon, Countess Bathory shows up
with her assistant, Andrea Rau. The papers report a series of killings
where the victims all have neck wounds and no blood.
All is not happy with the honeymoon couple. He doesn't want her to meet
his mother, who is some gay orchid grower, and, for recreation, he
beats the hell out of her with a belt . Jealousy also sets in as the
Countess begins her seduction of his wife. As a Distraction, Andrea Rau
is to seduce him. Everything gets more difficult when Rau ends up dead
after she is forced to shower.
