I am not certain about melee attacks, but I know for ranged attackers it doesn't work like that.
They fire where you are at, period. Them facing in a reasonable direction is just cosmetic. It is pretty easy to notice this when telekilling witches as you can get hit by their star just after teleporting before they chance direction. Once I actually saw a blood star fly exactly perpindicular to the direction the witch was firing, it looked pretty funny. Soon they are going to start shooting around corners!
My guess is that it would work the same way for melee attacks.
