Plot Summary, Synopsis, Review: IMDb - allmovie.com - taliesinttlg.blogspot.it - spookyisles.com - thefishshow.com - mvdb2b.com - vampires.com: «For some years now I’ve been aware of a startlingly original version of “Dracula” in production in Vancouver. The snippets that I saw, posted on YouTube, made my jaw go slack. One example that comes to mind was the image of Jonathan Harker arriving at Castle Dracula by ferryboat as if crossing the river Styx. Then he had to climb a seemingly endless rough-hewn set of stairs up a small mountain. Every frame looks amazing, with imagination taking the place of expensive digital effects. Which is not to say the film lacks effects–not at all! But most are frankly simple, yet extremely effective! Here is a Dracula demonic yet human, sexual and predatory–deluded, horrific, alien and somehow tragic. No suave European gentleman. No rat-faced horror. Maybe this creature was once capable of romance, but we see little enough trace of it here. For lack of a better word, I would call this version of “Dracula” Biblical. Maybe a better word would be Apocalyptic.For some years now I’ve been aware of a startlingly original version of “Dracula” in production in Vancouver.
