Just good fun!

Rating: 10/10 (6 November 2007)

I love this movie. At first glance all the plot holes and cheesy dialog are enough to make the purists run screaming into the night; but then you realize it is INTENTIONAL. Could they have made it uber-slick, uber-deep, and a character study to boot? Yeah, they could have. But it would have eliminated the point.
The one-liners and escapism are in fact the point. Sometimes all the drama gets to be too much, a little campy humor is more than appreciated. Devotees of the Rocky Horror Picture Show might get a kick out of this. I am, and I did. It practically screams for similar treatment, it's that kind of a movie. I find myself saying lines along with the characters, and talking back to the screen a TERRIBLE amount, but if you can suspend your disbelief, that's FUN! No, it's not a serious look at Dracula. It was never meant to be.
