Uno dei primi racconti horror moderni che ho letto (era il 1972 o gi\u00f9 di l\u00ec) era \u2018Vampires, Ltd\u2019 di Josef Nevsbada, all\u2019interno di un\u2019antologia di racconti del terrore europei. Nel 1981, Juraj Herz (The Cremator) ha adattato per il cinema il racconto : si trattava di uno dei pochi film horror non apologetici ad uscire dalla Cecoslovacchia dell\u2019epoca comunista, anche se c\u2019\u00e8 pur sempre \u2013 seppur sottile \u2013 un motivo vagamente politico nel fatto che i malvagi imprenditori sono letteralmente dei capitalisti sanguisughe. Il Dottor Marek (Jiri Menzel, meglio noto come regista della New Wave), tranquillo intellettuale di buone maniere, subisce un affronto quando la sua preziosa infermiera Mima (Dagmar Veskrnova, in seguito moglie di Vaclav Havel) lascia il lavoro presso di lui per andare da Ferat, produttore di automobili straniero \u2013 e scopre che l\u2019automobile da rally nera di Ferat (\u201cinterpretata\u201d da un\u2019elegante Skoda che fa la propria figura) \u00e8 alimentata da sangue, succhiato attraverso i pedali. Con un barbuto compare, Marek esegue le proprie ricerche guardando la ricostruzione di un film horror classico, con tanto di Dracula e mantello, e scava a fondo nel mistero. […]. Madame Ferat, la donna drago a capo della Vampires Ltd, \u00e8 interpretata da Zdenka Prochazkova, che era anche nel film tedesco Lady Dracula.<\/p>\n

One of the first modern horror stories I read (circa 1972) was Josef Nevsbada\u2019s \u2018Vampires, Ltd\u2019, in a paperback anthology of European horror stories. In 1981, Juraj Herz (The Cremator) made this adaptation of it \u2013 one of the few unapologetic genre horror films to come out of Communist era Czechoslovakia, though it has a slight political content in that its corporate villains are literally blood-sucking capitalists. Mild mannered, bespectacled Dr Marek (Jiri Menzel, better known as a New Wave director) is piqued when his valued nurse Mima (Dagmar Veskrnova, later Mrs Vaclav Havel) leaves his employment to work for Ferat, a foreign car manufacturer \u2013 and comes to realise that Ferat\u2019s black rally car (“played” by an elegant Skoda which gets its own credit) runs on blood, sucked out through the pedals. With a bearded sidekick, Marek researches by watching a mocked-up traditional horror film featuring a fanged, caped Dracula type, and digs deeper into the mystery. Madame Ferat, the dragon lady in charge of Vampires Ltd, is played by Zdenka Prochazkova, who was also in the German movie Lady Dracula.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
