Blue Underground Bringing 1971’s Vampire Film ‘Daughters of Darkness’ to 4K Ultra HD This Fall
Blue Underground continues bringing horror gems to 4K Ultra HD this fall with 1971’s Daughters of Darkness, an erotic vampire film directed by Belgian filmmaker Harry Kümel.
The film stars Delphine Seyrig, John Karlen, Danielle Ouimet, Andrea Rau, and Paul Esser, and you’ll find Blue Underground’s cover art for the upcoming 4K Ultra HD release down below.
“Blue Underground is proud to present the Director’s Cut of this classic psychosexual shocker newly remastered in High Definition and packed with Extras, including brand new interviews with Harry Kumel, Danielle Ouimet, and Co-Writer/Co-Producer Pierre Drouot.”
In Daughters of Darkness, “International screen icon Delphine Seyrig (Last Year at Marienbad) stars as Elizabeth Bathory, an ageless Countess with a beautiful young “companion” (Goth goddess Andrea Rau) and a legendary legacy of perversion. But when the two women seduce a troubled newlywed couple (French beauty Danielle Ouimet and John Karlen of Dark Shadows and Cagney & Lacey), they unleash a frenzy of sudden violence and depraved desire that shocked both art house audiences and grindhouse crowds worldwide.”
Special features have not yet been finalized. Stay tuned.

When best friends Glen (Stephen Dorff) and Terry (Louis Tripp) stumble across a mysterious crystalline rock in Glen’s backyard, they quickly dig up the newly sodden lawn searching for more precious stones. Instead, they unearth The Gate — an underground chamber of terrifying demonic evil. The teenagers soon understand what evil they’ve released as they are overcome with an assortment of horrific experiences. With fiendish followers invading suburbia, it’s now up to the kids to discover the secret that can lock The Gate forever . . . if it’s not too late.
If you’ve never seen The Gate, it’s now streaming on Prime Video and Tubi.
