Two and a Half Stars of Review! **1/2

The thing about the British is that even when they do things poorly they do them well. Solid acting, mostly inoffensive direction, and a story that's a little more than modestly perverse helps to create a real sense of atmosphere in this shoe string Dracula flick. Maybe not a lot of what's happening on screen makes perfect sense, but you'll enjoy the ride well enough. It's one of those films that you're remaking in your head while you're watching it.
