Don’t let the terrible title stop you from checking out this well-done documentary that explores both the life of Bram Stoker, the man who gave the world its most famous vampire, and the real life ruler that inspired the legend. While the film, directed by Michael Nayley Hughes, does a good job of detailing the history behind the Count, it is the interviews with the modern day followers and fans that really makes the movie come to life. Whether it’s the local Transylvania merchants who have built a cottage industry out of making Dracula crap to sell to tourists or the people from the same village who think the whole idea stinks, it’s a new angle to an old story.
