At a cocktail party, Frédéric, an energetic young publicist, cannot help noticing a poster depicting a ruined castle.  The image haunts Frédéric and awakens long dormant memories which are dominated by a strange young woman in a white dress.  One evening, Frédéric is surprised when this woman appears before him.  Unable to resist, he follows her across Paris and finds himself in Montmartre cemetery.  Without knowing it, he is about to reawaken the vampire curse that has haunted his family for generations...

The best of American cinema
sb-img-26
Since the 1920s, Hollywood has dominated the film industry, but that doesn't mean American cinema is all bad - America has produced so many great films that you could never watch them all in one lifetime.
The best of Indian cinema
sb-img-22
Forget Bollywood, the best of India's cinema is to be found elsewhere, most notably in the extraordinary work of Satyajit Ray.
The very best fantasy films in French cinema

Whilst the horror genre is under-represented in French cinema, there are still a fair number of weird and wonderful forays into the realms of fantasy.
Kafka's tortuous trial of love

Franz Kafka's letters to his fiancée Felice Bauer not only reveal a soul in torment; they also give us a harrowing self-portrait of a man appalled by his own existence.
The best of Russian cinema
sb-img-24
There's far more to Russian movies than the monumental works of Sergei Eisenstein - the wondrous films of Andrei Tarkovsky for one.
