With almost forced acting zeal this film tries to Romanian Count to represent the "handsome" nickname "the Impaler", as victims of the terrible time in which he lives. In order to destroy the surging Turks sustainably he is forced into a vampire and transformed this time just still half his farm to a small vampire army, which in the end still turns against himself and is eventually destroyed quasi with finger flicking.
Spectacular images puschen an obsessively engineered story up at a fairly good Fim. More than three stars does not go for me in this film, unfortunately.
