In Requiem for a Vampire, two school girls runaway and seek refuge in a castle. There, they wander through a graveyard (where one falls into a freshly dug grave and is buried alive) and into a castle, where they are suddenly set upon by cloaked figures and made the servants of a sadistic vampire attempting to perpetuate his race with fresh blood. When night falls, they become prey to the sadistic vampire named "The Last Vampire" who intends to use them to produce progeny who will continue his bloodline.
There are scenes in which, the cloaked men molest the young women, who are chained naked in the dungeon, showing acts of sadomasochism and lots of nudity.
Although there is very little sex in this film, the homoerotic desire and connection between girls, although not overly expicit, is nonetheless apparent.
