Leslie Nielsen, Steven Weber, Mel Brooks
Another spoof from the mind of Mel Brooks. This time he's out to poke fun at the Dracula myth. People are attacked by Dracula, and Dr. Van Helsing is brought in to save the day.

This should of been top quality brooks stuff instead its very average. There are some good parts, the staking with Brooks, Neilsen as Dracula and McNicole as Renfield, but only here and there does it work. Overall its very childish and too silly, Its also very poor looking, obvio...( read more)

Have you ever wondered why Mel Brooks hasn't directed a movie since 1995? This is not Young Frankenstein. Hell, this isn't Young Einstein. This is probably the worst film I've ever seen in my life. I have had bowel movements after food poisoning that were more enjoyable and enter...( read more)

Lol good!!! It is a parody of Dracula by Bram Stoker, and of some of the movies the novel inspired. It spoofed, among other movies, the most recent Dracula adaption, Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992).
The casting was perfect...Mel did a good job on this one as all his other movies... -

A Mel Brooks and Leslie Nielson movie which hits you over the head with its lameness. Quit it, Mel... you're killing us with your unfunniness. I was groaning at the lack of good jokes in this limp effort.

Uneven. A couple of absolutely brilliant scenes, bu not quite enough of them. Then again parody isn't really my thing, unless it's incredibly clever. This was just kind of clever. Loved the dance-scenes though.

This should have been a better movie with the talent involved. This is the start of Leslie Nielsen's hammy over the top acting. He crossed the line here and didn't look back. Mel Brooks has certainly done better.
