Dracula's Dog (1977)
4/10
Zoltan zucks
15 October 2016
This really should have been more fun than it is. I mean, Dracula's Dog just sounds like campy greatness. Unfortunately, it's a tired, mostly boring affair that looks like it was made for TV and takes itself too seriously. The story starts out where many Dracula movies have gone before, with someone removing the stake from the corpse and reviving Dracula. Only this time they don't revive Dracula but his guard dog Zoltan and his trainer or whatever (played by Reggie Nalder, one of moviedom's all-time best faces). Then the trainer takes Zoltan on a hunt for Dracula's sole living descendant (Michael Pataki), who has a dog of his own so expect a clash of canines at some point. This is all kind of dumb and could have been a lot better with a little more self-awareness and humor about what a 'dog' of an idea the movie is built around. See it if you must but keep expectations low.
