«Dracula
A.D. 2015 was a Joshua Kennedy directed
vehicle, released 2015, that was an unashamed homage to the Hammer films. As it
is available to view for free it is getting an Honourable Mention. We open with
the “Dracula theme” from the Hammer movies and then see a janitor, Thorley
Ripper (Jeremy Kreuzer), walking through Pace University, NY, whistling a tune.
He goes into a corridor and sees (pink) blood – the blood is a particularly
rubbish colour in this, purposefully I think, though Hammer used vividly red
blood – and cleans it. A shoe drops and then a second. He looks up and sees a
woman hanging over the balcony… how the shoes fell, when it is her head and
upper torso over the balcony, will remain a mystery of physics. Professor
Terence Fordyce (Joshua Kennedy) has travelled to New York to lecture at Pace
and meet his sister, Jennifer (Kat Kennedy), who studies there. He believes
strongly that Count Dracula (Xander Pretorius) was an actual being and lectures
before Ingrid Stensgaard’s class. Stensgaard (Bessie Nellis) is named after the
first two Hammer actresses who played Carmilla. The basic premise follows
Dracula A.D. 1972
with Jennifer’s group tricked into resurrecting Dracula and Jennifer becoming
the focus of Dracula’s machinations and Terence having to save her. Stensgaard
takes the Johnny Alucard role – though Dracula is called Johnny Alucard by
Thorley Ripper, who in turn takes a Renfield role. ... She isn’t in the end
credits but I assume she was the voice of Caroline Monlaur’s mother as Monlaur
(Hannah Rose Ammon) took Munro’s role in the resurrection ceremony and was told
(on the phone) not to do anything her mother wouldn’t do. If
Dracula A.D. 1972 had
a madcap carriage chase at the head of the film, this has one at the end and an
actual ending that apes
Dracula
(1958). The cast clearly had a whale of a time making the film and that comes
across in spades. Special mention to actor Jake Williams, who managed to show
some excellent comic timing and expressiveness that really stood out. Xander
Pretorius looked tall and dark in distance shots but was, perhaps, just a tad
too young to be Dracula. All in all this was fun… the Hammer fan will have
double the fun spotting all the references».
