Plot Summary, Synopsis, Review: IMDb - eztakes.com - taliesinttlg.blogspot.com - horror-movies.ca - movies.yahoo.com - nowtorrents.com - vod.com/video - reviewsbystevemiller.blogspot.com: «Mrs. Amworth is a vampire movie that's worth seeing for its very strong feeling of a classic vampire tale. In fact, this film conveys more of the tone, feeling, and subtext of Stoker's Dracula novel than any movie adaptation of it I've seen, including the one titled Bram Stoker's Dracula. The film a bit slowly paced--there are a few scenes that I'd even accuse the director of arranging the way they are because he was padding the film's run-time--but it's because of the pace that it captures the feel of traditional vampire stories so well. It also brings to the screen more effectively than any other vampire movie I've seen the underlying fear of The Stranger/Foreign that so permeated Stoker's novel. In this film, Mrs. Amworth is the outside corrupting influence that enters into a peaceful community and happy circle of friends, bringing death and terror. For all my talk about Dracula, this film is actually a loose adaptation of E.F. Benson's vampire story Mrs. Amworth. The film contains some of the key scenes from the story, but they aren't set up very effectively, and they feel like they're included almost to make sure that there's more left of original source than its title. For example, Mrs. Amworth's apparent death by car accident is set up in the story from the beginning, and it could easily have been done so in the film, but instead it just sort of comes out of left field...».
