So how does Yorga come back? The world may never know

Count Yorga, Vampire is one of my little guilty pleasures that is a hidden horror treasure that not too many people have seen. It had great suspense, scary make up and a chilling performance by Robert Quarry. They killed him off with pretty much no way of bringing him back, yet somehow they did. In The Return of Count Yorga, there is no explanation, he's just back. I guess he was so bad that he just brought himself back, or just saw the check from beyond the grave and said "sure, we can do a sequel!" We are given an alright sequel with some corny moments, cheesy acting with a young Craig T. Nelson, bad make up effects but an effective atmosphere, we could go for one more ride with the count and his bordello of ladies.Count Yorga is buying property next to an orphanage where he and his brides begin to feed on the children and the local vixens. The vampire falls in love with one of the orphanage's teachers, Cynthia. Yorga sends his undead brides to her house to kill her family. The brides then bring Cynthia to Yorga's residence, where he makes her believe that her parents & sister were in a car accident and she was left in his care while their recovering. Yorga then tries to charm the young woman into willingly becoming his bride. Meanwhile Jennifer, the Nelson's mute maid, happens upon the massacre scene the next morning and calls the police. By the time the police arrive though, all of the evidence has mysteriously been cleared away, and Tommy lies, claiming nothing has happened but are they prepared to handle the truth? Count Yorga is ready for them this time.This is definitely not the first film with a young group of teens. Count Yorga must have been very busy before we see him come back, because he has 40 ladies in his basement all wearing the same dress which caught my eye. I guess he's not that picky, you just have to be a looker. There is a scene I nearly died laughing at even though it's supposed to be scary, but he chases after one of his lady's boyfriends and it's done in incredible slow motion and it reminded me more of Baywatch with the way he was running after this guy. The music is also very random and just awful with a kid's choir singing "la la la" literally. The acting is horrible and the whole story just doesn't make sense without knowing how or why the count came back. However, for some reason I still did enjoy the film. I'm a freak however who likes a fun horror movie even if it doesn't make sense at times. I think this was just meant for fun and for the fans of the first film. Robert is still a smooth count who could never be taken down, too bad we couldn't get more sequels out of it but I'm sure that Robert just looked at these films with the same look of disgust the count gave when he was about to bite his lady and heard her boyfriend's voice calling him out.5/10
