Vampirella is known by many as a provacative vampire temptress hailing from the pages of comic books. An indie femme fatale who has graced the reader with her presence for decades, but did you know she also had a terrible 90s film adaptation. Starring Talisa Soto and Roger Daltrey, directed by a B movie and later adult film director Jim Wynorski this film has all the makings of a cult classic. Witness poor acting, poor effects a confusing plot and a ride you definitely do not want to miss here on Casually Comics!

Hold on the Chopping Mall director, also did The Hills Have Thighs and The Devil Wears Nada, those Late Night HBO/Cinemax classics?

I knew Talisa Soto, Kitana of Mortal Kombat herself was in this, and unfortunately, that's still her best role, and second best thing she did, the first being married to Benjamin Bratt. Wait... Brian Bloom is in this?! Captain America from Avengers Earth's Mightiest Heroes, Jackie Estacado from The Darkness?!

That lightning-strike on Dracula holding the metal rod gimmick is ripped straight out of “Scars of Dracula,” I think it was? One of the Hammer movies, for sure.

I think a new adaptation of Vampirella could work if they went for a dark horror vibe with a fair amount of sensuality. And of course they actually have to care about the movie. I don't know what to do with the costume though. Because as it is in the comics, it seems like Vampirella can't take a deep breath without falling out of it, let alone fight. Maybe keeping that thing on is a secret superpower.

Daltrey up to this point had a pretty spotty record as an actor. There's vampire imagery in Lisztomania (to go with the Christ imagery in his earlier collaboration with Ken Russell, the movie version of Tommy). Later he was an evolved dinosaur from an alternate universe on "Sliders". Haven't had the opportunity to check out his other early lead role in McVicar, but I'm not expecting great things (apparently he got the part because they needed someone who could sing).

I don't think I'd heard of this, though I had heard of a few of his other bad movies (Chopping Mall and The Bare Wench Project 2). I don't think I've ever heard of them. I will try to find somewhere to stream Vampirella though. I just wish that it had been cast a bit better. You're right, it definitely needed an actress who could emote.

Roger Daltry always seems to enjoy any role he gets. I mean look at his role in Highlander: the Series. I think he was actually the best part if that show.
