A beautiful Britt (Ursula Andress) and her aristocratic husband, Nicholas, Earl of Dorset (David Warner) are classic examples of the live now, pay later, or preferably not at all, philosophy of life. Luxury is a necessity for the glamorous pair who live entirely on credit and their good looks. Britt asks her bank manager, stuffy Mr Graham (Stanley Baxter) for an overdraft and so the drama begins!

Inspired by the legend of Elizabeth Báthory, an elderly Hungarian countess maintains her youthful appearance by bathing in the blood of virgins.
