INGRID PITT BRINGS US A THROWBACKTHURSDAY WITH BITE!

She was an actress that appeared in a handful of genre films, but she certainly made her mark! In 1970, she gave us her Marcilla / Carmilla / Mircalla Karnstein in Hammer films, THE VAMPIRE LOVERS, the following year she starred in another Hammer film, COUNTESS DRACULA.

Hot on the trail of those two hits, came yet another 'vampire', even though it was a bite size role in one of the stories in the portmanteau feature, 'THE HOUSE THAT DRIPPED BLOOD' for Amicus films, with Peter Cushing and Jon Pertwee.

In 'THE HOUSE THAT DRIPPED BLOOD' she wrapped up her part quite nicely, with a plot twist and flew across the screen and once again, into our hearts....
