- Sorry, but no. "Martin" is an excellent film, but I was referring to
- "Jonathan".
-
- From the psychotronic Encyclopedia:
- <abridged, slightly, to save bandwidth>
-
- Jonathan
- 1970 New Yorker (W. Germany)
- Producer: Iouna Films
- Director/Screenwriter: Hans W. Geissendorfer
- AKA: Jonathan, Vampire Sterben Nicht
-
- A critically acclaimed period film with a decadent vampire (Jurgen Jung)
- feeding off the local peasants to the strains of classical music.
- It equates vampirism with facism and features the bloody retribution
- of the peasants. After initial showings, scenes of Sex and Violence
- were added to make the film more marketable.

- Far more interesting treatment of the Vampire idea, than Coppola's
- rock video version....
