- QuizIngrid Pitt said in a 2009 column she wrote for Den of Geek that "When it came to the nude scenes, the director asked Madeline Smith and me if we wanted a closed set. It didn't bother me one way or the other because I've always been a bit of an exhibitionist so I had no problem letting people see me naked. Maddy Smith, being very British, was a little more nervous about prancing around in the nude. So we had a closed set. Producers Harry Fine and Michael Style were a bit peeved about this because they were barred from set too. They thought it was producer's perks to watch what was going on. Then one day I was walking to the set wearing just a dressing gown with nothing on underneath when I saw them coming in the opposite direction wearing a doleful look. As I went past them I open my dressing gown and said, Wheeeee! There was a spring in their step as they went on their way."
- BlooperThe story is set in the late 1700s, but at the General's ball the orchestra plays a couple of pieces by Johann Strauss Sr. (1804 - 1849) and Léo Delibes (1836-1891).
- Versioni alternativeThe UK cinema version was cut by the BBFC to reduce the opening decapitation and shots of Carmilla kissing Emma's breasts, and the same print was featured on video releases. The 2002 ILC DVD saw the cuts fully waived though the print used was an edited US one which missed a brief full frontal shot of Carmilla in a bathtub scene. The 2006 Optimum DVD featured the fully uncut and complete print.

Recensione in evidenza
As a million other people have noted, this is not only a solid entry in the long-running Hammer vampire cycle, but an interesting piece of film history as well. Just as the original Hammer Dracula pushed the boundaries of censorship and cinema by confronting audiences with the very first color vampire film, The Vampire Lovers brought Hammer into the even looser censorship standards of the 70s with lots of nudity, including nearly full frontal, and unflinching lesbianism. Lesbianism and all, the film is a somewhat faithful adaptation of Le Fanu's novella, Camilla. Surely, that content is the main reason Hammer adapted the story to begin with.
The cast is solid, and we are treated to the incomparable Peter Cushing in a secondary, though pivotal, role of an uncle grieving the loss of his niece from a mysterious illness. The pacing never bogs down, and there are some nifty shots of fog swirling through graveyards and around castle foundations.
