Back in the late 90's and into the 2000's, straight-to-video erotic horror films were popping up like mushrooms. A lot of them came from a company called Seduction Cinema and lensed by director John Bacchus, who dished out titles like THE EROTIC WITCH PROJECT, VAMPIRE VIXENS and PLAY-MATE OF THE APES. Two of his earliest films have some of the most hilarious titles I've ever come across: THE HEAPING BOUNCY BREASTS THAT SMOTHERED A MIDGET (1988) and THE BLOODY VIDEO HORROR THAT MADE ME PUKE ON AUNT GERTRUDE (1989). Wow.

Flash forward a dozen or so years and another director, Jay Lind, the self-proclaimed "Master of Erotic Horror" attempted to recharge the sub-genre. Unfortunately, his attempts seemed to have largely failed. He has made a handful of other movies, starring Scream Queens like Brinke Stevens, Debbie Rochon and his late wife, Maria Pechukas.
A remake of his earlier CARMILLA with the proposed title, THE BRIDE WORE RED, starring Filipina model Elektra LeTigre and actress, Irene Paquibot was crowd-funded but apparently didn't meet its goal. It was hyped back in 2014, including on the DIABOLIQUE web page, but since then it seemed to have evaporated like the mist of a vampire in the morning sun.
Unless it flew under the radar, what we have left with are only a few tantalizing looks at what could have been a (possibly) interesting Asian horror film, shot in the Philippines.
From the (now closed) crowd-funding site:
THE BRIDE WORE RED
Is a film by Jay Lind. A master of erotic films over the years, Jay has relocated to The Philippines, where there are a plethora of beautiful women. Now, in this erotically charged vampire film, you will see them all in their unclad beauty.
From the man who brought you such classics as Valerie, Dance With Death and Carmilla the exotic meets the erotic in
THE BRIDE WORE RED!
Your contributions to the making of this film will enable us to shoot in the Philippines, with a cast and crew that will bring all of their expertise into creating one of the most erotically charges vampire films ever made. The perks for helping us in this endeavor range from the bizarre to the just strange and hopefully become treasured possessions in your film collections.
