Cirio H. Santiago könnte mit diesem Film problemlos als der philippinische Ed Wood angesehen werden. Schwer zu bewertender Trash, bei dem eigentlich alles schlecht ist, außer dem Lied, das während des Abspanns spielt, und dessen Text man noch ein paar Tage lang mitsingen wird: "Vampire Hookers... und sie saugen nicht nur Blut!" Weitere unvergessliche Höhepunkte sind auch der furzende Diener Vico Diazes, Statisten, die stumpf in die Kamera starren, und wahrscheinlich der dümmste Höhepunkt, der jemals in den Sinn kam.

One of many contributions by Filipino B-movie maestro Cirio H. Santiago to the collection of the most trashy cinematic entertainment. This time, he’s roped in a worn-out John Carradine, floundering at the tail end of his acting career, while his son is thriving in films by legends like Martin Scorsese, Hal Ashby, and Ingmar Bergman. Santiago’s directorial skills are closer to Ed Wood’s caliber, and the result is exactly what you’d expect. Vampire Hookers is a rightfully obscure B-movie, ideal for aficionados and cinematic masochists who enjoy watching completely ridiculous films where there isn't even a proper crowd of extras – you can see people in the supposedly bustling streets of Manila staring directly into the camera. With a title like Vampire Hookers, you might anticipate more eroticism and nudity from the seductive vampires, but you only get that in the last third of the movie during an extended softcore bedroom scene. Otherwise, it’s pretty tame. If you’re hoping for something akin to Jesús Franco’s work, you’ll be disappointed. The most memorable aspects of the film include a farting, dim-witted servant played by Vic Diaz, a nonsensical ending filled with WTF moments (even by B-movie standards), and a catchy theme song during the end credits with the brilliant refrain, "Vampire Hookers, and blood is not all they suck!” That tune will stick in your head for a while. As someone who hunts for these stinky cinematic gems, I actually enjoyed this one more than expected. Despite its flaws, Vampire Hookers deserves a solid 2 stars. Unlike many other B-movies, it’s not all that boring – and that’s something!

The American film Vampire Hookers is not very good. It tries to save face with some weird moments in the script at the end, but otherwise, this is a film that relies on pretty women showing very nice breasts and the fact that even though they are vampires, they also wear panties. There's a lot of humor, but most of it isn't funny, and you won't find any horror moments in the film at all. That’s too bad because it could have at least been more erotic.
