Trama e commenti: davinotti.com: «Già dai primi minuti, la fotografia da porno in digitale e l'atmosfera barocca super-kitsch mi ricordavano qualcosa; poco dopo mi sono reso conto che il regista è lo stesso del temibile Disciples, ma ormai era troppo tardi... Le coordinate non sono troppo dissimili dal suddetto: ci viene risparmiata la CGI da baraccone, ma tra attori presenzialisti di vari sottoprodotti, un paio di guest-star (è l'ultimo film uscito del compianto Z'Dar), tette siliconate, un po' di BDSM e dialoghi interminabili, questa "storia di sangue" bathoriana perplime».

All of this happens while we get narration from the main character who is writing a book about her experiences. The movie is not particularly good, nor is it memorable. I’m trying to piece together what I remember as I write. The narration is one of the few things I can recall about A Blood Story. Most of the narration was based upon the writing that Madison Sheffield was doing for her next book. What she said was what she was writing on her laptop. The quality of the narration was poor. Part of it can be attributed to the line reading throughout the movie. Mindy Robinson does not seem capable of putting depth behind her voiceover performance. The most heinous aspect of the narration, however, is the writing. The character, as I have already mentioned multiple times, is a writer. She is presented throughout the movie as though she is a good writer. Yet her writing sounds as though it was part of a middle school student’s essay, albeit, with more adult related themes occurring. It was as though the screenwriter did not know how to filter his writing through the style of another person or character. The only way that writer/director Joe Hollow could filter the writing was to dumb down the prose, and that only hurt the movie. ...».
