Lemora: A Child's Tale of the Supernatural

Mme 2Rayz❤️Nov 16, 2022

I saw this movie late one night; I must have been 10 or 11. What I remember most was the song of the nightbirds in the nocturnal outdoor scenes, and how I would hear the same song as I laid in my bed at night in East Texas. To my young and overly active imagination, this could only mean Lemora was in my neck of the woods, and because of this I knew for sure I was on her list of little girls to take away to experience the wonders of the night. A striking and strange movie, with one of the most captivating vampiresses on film. If you ever wanted a vampire for a mommy, this one's for you!

"Lemora: A Child's Tale of the Supernatural" is an overrated and ambiguous nightmarish vampire cult movie. The storyline of a Christian teenage girl raised by a Reverend that decides to travel to a town to seek redemption for her father that is a gangster and stumble upon a creepy horde of vampires commanded by the mysterious Lemora is promising. The cinematography in the dreamlike style of a nightmare is magnificent and the ambiguous conclusion is intriguing. Unfortunately the screenplay is a complete mess without character development. The sweet Cheryl Smith that performs the angelic Lila Lee in her debut in the cinema industry had a tragic end with the use of heroin. My vote is four. Title (Brazil): "A Maldição de Lemora" ("The Curse of Lemora")

"Lemora" is like a fun house ride in the dark. Most night scenes are way too dark for viewing, and while it creates a foreboding atmosphere, eventually it becomes redundant. Strange and creepy characters jump about, much like the above mentioned amusement park ride. Long periods of meaningless dialog grinds the film to a halt, but since it really goes nowhere, you are not missing much. This is really just a meandering nightmare with scrambled images, a garbled script, and amateurish acting. All this adds up to nothing more than an hour and a half of hide and seek in the dark. Pretty boring stuff if you ask me. Not recommended. - MERK

Never had heard of this one before, and I assumed it would just be a low-budget snoozer - but it's not! It's pretty damn good! Angelic girl leaves her church to find her murderous dad so she can forgive him and finds herself involved with vampires instead. Very well shot and quite creepy. This deserves more attention. Plenty of tension; it feels like there's something supernatural and terrifying around every corner. Cheryl Smith made her debut here - she would later adopt the professional nickname Rainbeaux and briefly play with the Runaways band.

Richard Blackburn's "Lemora:A Child's Tale of the Supernatural" is one of the most atmospheric horror movies I have ever seen.It is filled with incredibly haunting and hypnotic atmosphere that left me speechless.This wonderfully uncanny horror film was filmed in 1973 and released in 1974 only to be banned by the Catholic Film Board.The acting is excellent-Lesley Gilb is especially memorable as a hooded and pale Lemora.She is a haunting and sinister character,who reminds me the myths of Lamia and Lilith,vampires who drink the blood of children.Cheryl Smith is also outstanding as a young 14 year old Lila Lee."Lemora:A Child's Tale of the Supernatural" is a masterpiece of atmospheric horror-for example the scenes with Lemora's vampire children are extremely eerie.A must-see for horror fans.10 out of 10.

A dark, atmospheric little film, it is quite bizarre and intriguing to watch, with shadow enhancing lighting, flashy colours, great sets, and a fine lead performance by Cheryl Smith, who is a perfect choice to play an innocent uncorrupted. On the other hand, the writer-director gives off a somewhat restrained performance as a priest, and towards the end, the film heads off into rather messy territory, with excesses of horror and too many slow motion, plus it takes forever to wrap the story up. There are some interesting ideas at hand, and a few worthwhile production elements, but overall this is a film that is much more so interesting than it is great.
