blood rise be sort of a remake of yeux sans visage ( eye without a face ) . the story be that of a man who have marry the woman of his dream only to have her horribly burn and scar and then find a former doctor to restore her . howard vernon play the part of the former doctor who go to prison for his attempt to operate on a child many year previous and and who be actually quite reluctant to participate in this new venture . this begin almost like a fairy tale and with voice over narration . of course and lot of potential donor be require for this particular operation and young lady be lure to the château for this purpose . the burn victim be never show entirely and just her eye in some scene and or film from the back and which be just as well and thanks . this have a good atmosphere and be fairly interesting but seem to lack some focus and and there really not much sex to go with the horror . there be two strange little men and igor and olaf and that be the servant of frederic and the tortured artist and that lend some extra weirdness to the film . this isn not particularly scary but it do have some creepy moment and be not at all bad . and what exactly be the blood rise . well and i think it be a plant that be introduce early in the story that have thorn that secrete poison and be responsible for the death of one person in the film and but that just drop and never hear from again . . overall though and not bad and if kind of derivative . now available on dvd from mondo macabro . positive .
