Blood for Dracula
Movie Information
In Brief: It's the X-rated classic where Dracula becomes spectacularly unwell whenever he drinks the blood of anyone who's not a virgin (prompting the magnificent outburst, "The blood of these whores is killing me!") — and if that appeals to you (and it should), this movie is right up your alley. It's all about Dracula going to Italy to find some virgin (or "wirgin") blood (he's been assured that "the Italian church needs wirgins for their wedding rituals") — only to find himself at a house full of modern ladies of lax morals, not to mention a randy Brooklyn-accented, Marxist handyman. It's as screwy and tasteless as it sounds — and it's wonderful. This excerpt was taken from a review by Ken Hanke published on Oct. 23, 2012
