Question about this movie??

So I've been tempted to buy this movie from Vinegar Syndrome but I have a question? Is it a horror movie or is it porn? Or is it a horror movie that just has a lot of sex in it?

The nudity and sex is pretty much softcore. You’ve likely seen worse. There is probably equal parts horror but it isn’t very scary. Also, there is a bit of politics involved. It’s good for a laugh if you like b-movies, though.

I bought it and enjoyed the movie. The gore was laughable and the sex was pretty tame. I'd call the dialog unintentionally hilarious.

Blood For Dracula was made at the same time as this and by the same people. It’s even more hilarious.

Maybe I'm missing something but I didn't see this movie as political at all.

It’s subtle and probably requires knowing the politics of the filmmakers.

He was a communist who was actually against the free-love movement despite both of these movies being quite sexual. Blood for Dracula is a bit more overt with the hero going into a monologue about communism with a hammer and sickle in his room (said flag being non-existent in the time period the movie was supposed to take place).
