SON OF DRACULA is a very strange little movie, not really a horror film, or a comedy, or a spoof, or even a musical. The plot is half-hearted at best and the actors just show up to go through the motions. It's nonsensical at best and outright plotless at worst, and weirdest of all is that Freddie Francis, who has directed some of favourite movies, is behind it. Harry Nilsson is no actor but sings up a storm here (the best part being his rendition of 'Without You') while Ringo Starr's a hoot as Merlin. Other familiar faces include a wheelchair-bound Dennis Price, Susannah Leigh and Freddie Jones. It's probably best to avoid it...
