Details

The story of Count Dracula, vampire, who wants to move from Transylvannia to more pleasant surroundings. An adaptation of Bram Stoker}'s enduring classic which emphasises the romance and poetry of the story. It is a tale of good against evil - but what is explored in this version is that we all have the capacity for both. Some of the characters, while outwardly examples of middle class Victorian morality, are terribly attracted by the sensual pleasures that Dracula and his vampire brides have to offer, whilst the priest-like Van Helsing, armed with Christian symbols and preaching forgiveness, must confront the powers of darkness which might lie within each of us.
