Son of Dracula

 

Why?

This is a movie that was recommended to me by my mom. I figured I would have to watch it since usually she recommends pretty good movies. 

What in the world?

A woman brings over a Hungarian count so that she can give immortality to herself and to her lover. It was very strange.

Personal thoughts

Sometimes this movie was hard to follow. I mean it made sense, but sometimes I would look away from the screen for a little bit and then looked back and found myself confused on what was going on. One scene in particular was the first introduction of the count. Someone had just died and the party was over, he comes into the scene and asks to be introduced and we aren't shown anything from that. I don't know what was supposed to happen, but it confused me so much. One person I was confused about was Frank. He does 180's like there is no tomorrow. First he's against everything, then he is fully up for everything, and then he was against everything. I don't know, he was very confusing and I think the fate that befallen him was pretty well deserved.

Score

I have to give this movie a 3 out of 10. The pace was really slow and there wasn't really enough to keep me entertained. The count stared a lot and he was pretty decent, but I wouldn't say that he was funny. The bat that he would turn into was pretty great and so was the fog, but other than that the movie just kind of fell flat. 

Watch what you love,
