The greatest movie ever!
Softwing
Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.

Unlike some Leigh Scott movies, this one had a plot to it.....I enjoyed this one, actually. It was pretty cool, but not a major bloodbath like Hillside Cannibals. Though, the beginning was a little iffy, kind of a rip-off of the Cal Leandros book series by Rob Thurman. Though, there were a little too many characters for my liking. Hell, half the people from Hillisde were in this one! Vaz, Erika, the Toms, what are they? Leigh Scott's pets or something? We could have done without a few characters though. But keep Tsorak, even though he's a minor character he kicks ass! And the special effects were kind of lame, but that's the joys of Leigh's films.

OK this is a low budget movie - but even some low budget movies have good acting. The film "Manticore", for example was low budget but it did stand up because the acting was good. Draculas Curse lacks any descent acting - in many scenes the actors seem unsure of what their next line is which makes me wonder if this film was properly story boarded. The poor screenplay, direction and editing back up my suspicions.The fight scenes were consistent with the general low quality of the film. The story was kind of interesting but is over shadowed by the over all poor quality of the film.Avoid at all costs

We have to agree for the full 100 percent with Jesse from Australia: After about 30 minutes we stopped this.... Very poor audio, poor camera-work and very bad acting of some amateurs. And the dialog being out of sync, made things only worse. The quality of acting and sound made us sometimes think, it was an X-rated version of Dracula, where the explicit scenes were taken out. Jesse wrote that one should wait until somebody else is renting it or wait for the 2-Dollar-bin..... We don't think it is even worth it.... Just a waste of time. If you like this kind of movies, you better rent and see "Dracula 2000" with Gerard Butler, for example

I have been going through a phase lately of renting new releases off the video shelf that i've never heard of before. You know the ones with just one or two copies. Sometimes they end up being surprisingly good and most of the time I understand why there are just one or two copies. Dracula's Curse surprised me. Don't get me wrong its not going to win any awards and it does not compare to the greats of its genre, like Bram Stoker's Dracula with Gary Oldman or even Blade. But it is a pretty entertaining little film for what it is. I assume the budget wasn't very big but the effects were damn good and a few scenes in particular were just nice to look at (see it and you'll know which scenes I'm talking about). The costumes and makeup for the most part were also good. The story could have been streamlined a bit more in my opinion, maybe some more editing, but it kept me interested and wanting to know what happened next. Also for the low budget I assume it had the acting was surprisingly well done. The vampires were all very different and cool to watch. The vampire hunters are also a diverse group and pretty fun at times. My only disappointment here was seeing again the red-head actress I had just seen in another low budget rental Satanic. She was horrible in that one and that whole movie was horrible by the way. I cannot understand how this girl keeps getting parts because she is one of the most stinko actresses i have ever seen, at least in a main role, and is really out of place here. The rest of the cast is pretty great. I definitely recommend renting this movie.
