Reviews from Letterboxd:

1. bleedingskull – ★★★
   “Of the two dozen W.A.V.E. tapes that I’ve semi-watched, Vampire Brides is the one that most closely resembles a movie. Like every other early W.A.V.E. production, it’s still defined by dank basements, Gary Whitson’s brown plaid couch, a surprisingly chaste approach to s&x, and music that sounds like New Edition as interpreted by Frankenstein’s monster.”

2. smellington – ★★★
   “Girl meets a pale skeevy looking guy & goes home with him anyway. No he doesn’t have the AIDS (it was the mid 90s), but a vampire who likes to tie her up, and employs a fat zombie.”

3. nightofthecreeps – ★★
   “Cheap, grainy, and slow, but kind of charming in that classic W.A.V.E. way. It’s not good, but there’s a strange comfort in how handmade it feels.”

4. videomassacre – ★★★
   “One of the more coherent W.A.V.E. productions. That’s not saying much, but if you’re into low-budget vampire bondage weirdness, it delivers.”

5. gorehound – ★★
   “There’s not much vampire action, but plenty of women tied up and screaming. Classic W.A.V.E. energy, though the pacing drags.”

Meta Description:

Shot-on-video horror oddity from W.A.V.E. Productions, Vampire Brides (1994) delivers low-budget thrills, vampire bondage, and a mother’s quest to save her daughter from the undead. A cult curio for fans of DIY horror cinema.
