Daughters of Darkness 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray presents Harry Kümel’s opulent Euro-horror masterpiece in a stunning new 4K restoration. When newlyweds Stefan and Valerie detour to a deserted seaside hotel, their fragile romance begins to fracture under the gaze of the enigmatic Countess Báthory (Delphine Seyrig) and her companion Ilona. What unfolds is a baroque fever dream of seduction, manipulation, and vampiric legacy.

Laced with Sapphic subtext and a sharp feminist undercurrent, Daughters of Darkness transcends genre conventions through its hypnotic performances, icy atmosphere, and decadent visual style. Seyrig commands the screen with aristocratic menace, elevating this cult classic into one of the most thematically rich and visually sumptuous vampire films of the 1970s.
