Plot: Mary (Cristina Ferrare) is a popular artist living in Mexico, where she can better practice her talents and other…proclivities. You see, Mary has an intense drive to kill and feast upon the blood of her victims. She often slips something into their drink, then brings out a blade to snuff out their lives before consuming their blood. Even as news of the murders spreads, Mary has no problem lining up victims given her prominence in the art world and stunning good looks. At the same time, she is involved in a romantic tryst with Ben (David Young) and while passionate, it also distracts her and with the authorities on her trail, that isn’t wise. When reports of similar attacks appear, Mary is quite upset since she isn’t responsible for all of the reported deaths. She worries her father could be involved, since he shares that lust for blood, or that a copy cat is on the prowl. Is her father behind this new spree of killings or is it just someone obsessed with the real case or is it someone Mary would never suspect?

Entertainment Value: Mary, Mary, Bloody Mary has a few interesting elements that would attract in potential viewers, but the main ones center on the talent involved on both sides of the camera. John Carradine is here in a small role, but the real draws are likely Cristina Ferrare and director Juan Lopez Moctezuma. Ferrare gives a fairly wild performance here, with some great emotional outbursts and ample sex appeal. She plays the seductress well and while she goes over the top at times, it always entertains. As for Moctezuma, this is not on the same level of madness as his other cult favorites, but you know this is his work. The story is thin, but it works as Mary comes off as a reluctant victim to her own inner desires. This less traditional approach to the vampire genre is a welcome deviation, even if it isn’t explored that much here. The movie is weird at times, but never has that surreal chaos you might expect if you’ve seen the other films by the director. Even so, it is a fun and brisk horror ride that if nothing else, has some nice nudity and a wild performance from Ferrare. So if you’re into offbeat horror, give it a look.

Not a boat load of nakedness here, but Cristina Ferrare strips down in a few scenes and looks spectacular. She shows her breasts a few times, then has one scene with all the marbles, including full frontal. Only one other woman takes her clothes off and that is during a soft, but welcome lesbian scene. So overall, some nice nude scenes and Ferrare is quite a sight here. Most of the blood comes from Mary stabbing her victims, including a poor old fisherman. These killings aren’t overly graphic, but they do yield some nice red stuff and Mary licks the crime scene afterward. Later we have some gun violence, a car explosion, and more blade work, with more non graphic bloodshed. Not slasher levels of crimson, but there is a moderate amount of blood here. Not much in terms of memorable dialogue, but Mary has some great emotional breakdowns. Aside from her though, no one stands out as having good lines, so outside of Mary, not a lot of lines worth talking about. This isn’t as crazy as you might think, but it does moments of insanity sprinkled around. I love the scene where Mary brings her boyfriend a huge fish, but that’s probably just me. Ferrare’s performance adds some wildness, as well as Carradine’s terrible oatmeal style makeup, but I guess in the end, this isn’t all that out of control.
