Dark, mysterious and sensual, Vampirella (Talisa Soto) is a princess from the Planet Drakulon. Like all vampires, she needs blood to live, but she will not kill to get it - a synthetic substitute keeps her alive. After journeying across space and time seeking vengeance for her father’s brutal murder, she now finds herself on Earth, in Las Vegas, where her enemy Vlad (Roger Daltry) has disguised himself as a rock star. In order to stop Vlad’s doomsday plan for world domination, Vampirella must make a dangerous alliance with a group of hi-tech vampire hunters. It’s a race to stop the apocalypse of humanity and our fate is in the hands of the fiery, dangerous and beautiful Vampirella.

Viewing Notes
The DKUTV Roger Corman tribute “producer” weekend rages on to the finish with some late period schlock. I remember being so excited when they announced this project then finally seeing it on Cinemax and being so disappointed. Truly one of the worst films I had seen at that time.
Well folks I here to say that upon this revisit this is still a Very Bad Movie. I love Talisa Soto but she doesn’t work in this as the titular character. Roger Daltry is probably the only one that understands the assignment, hamming it up in every scene.
All that said I’d probably buy this if it had a decent Blu release or was cheap (neither atm).
