2.0 out of 5 stars Dud, June 29, 2009

This review is from: Bram Stoker's Dracula's Guest (DVD)

Unlike some I actually thought that the production values weren't all that bad.

What is bad about this film is the plot, coupled with direction/editing that sucks any sense of excitement out of the film before it gets to your screen.

Take for instance Dracula is able, using his mind powers to lift a guy off his feet and make him float towards a noose. The film suddenly cuts as apparently we can't see him die, because that would be too exciting and we only see the results. Odd too, given these powers that in the end Dracula chooses to fight it out with a sword.

Dracula's guest in this film is Kelsey McCann who is quite pretty and does her best at an English accent. She is imprisoned by Dracula who puts her in a cave, that's got a cage door across the front to prevent her getting out. Her love finds her and they exchange conversation through the bars. She says something like "He took something that I was saving for you" (meaning her virginity), though we never see that because that too would be too exciting. Thus, it's overly-big then on dialogue. Dracula and guest spend quite some time at it and all this leaves one bored and waiting for something to happen. Then, later, they talk about what did happen, but not that we were allowed to see it.

This review is from: Bram Stoker's Dracula's Guest (DVD)

This has to be one of the most laughable versions of Dracula I have ever seen. Acting, writing, editing, directing, in fact everything about this movie is just awful. Don't waste your money on this trash unless you want a good laugh. The director would have made Ed Wood proud.

This review is from: Bram Stoker's Dracula's Guest (DVD)

"Dracula's Guest" began as one of several short stories published after Stoker's death by his widow, Florence. Some critics believe the she wrote the story herself as the literary style is unlike Stoker's. Be that as it may, the film has no resemblance to the original story or even to a halfway competent B-movie. The plot, direction, writing, sets and production values are ghastly. Filmed entirely in and around Los Angeles, "Dracula's Guest" has the dramatic impact of a 1950's television commercial and all the thrills of watching paint dry. While Wes Ramsey is quite good as Bram Stoker and does not overdo the Irish accent, his love interest, Elizabeth, played by Kelsey McCann, mangles the British accent with nasal American vowels. Some of the supporting players are quite good, other terrible, but even the best performances can't lift this tedious, cheaply made exploitation movie from the mire of its miserable script and equally miserable direction. The movie does have its uses, I must admit. If you suffer from insomnia and are sick of paying through the nose for Lunesta, buy "Dracula's Guest" and play it before going to bed. You'll sleep like -- dare I say it? -- the dead.
