Dario Argento's World of Horror - DVD

Horror maestro Dario Argento (SUSPIRIA) puts his unique stylistic spin on the classic supernatural tale with DRACULA, a visually sumptuous retelling of the legendary myth. It's been 400 years since Count Dracula's (Thomas Kretschmann, WANTED) beloved Dolingen de Gratz passed away, leaving the immortal bloodsucker forever abandoned. But when he discovers that local newlywed Mina Harker (Marta Gastini, THE RITE) bears a striking resemblance to Dolingen, his furious yearning is reawakened as he believes Mina to be a reincarnation of his beloved. Luring her husband Jonathan away to his castle with the help of his minion (and Minas best friend) Lucy (Asia Argento, XXX), Dracula embarks on a bloody quest to reunite with his long lost love and live forever with her in hellish immortality. Only the arrival of vampire expert Abraham Van Helsing (Rutger Hauer, BLADE RUNNER) can put an end to the fiend's unholy plan. Luridly violent and brimming with passionate eroticism, Dario Argento's DRACULA is an all-out assault on the senses from one of horror cinema's most celebrated authors.

It was a student orientation like no other when American ballet student Suzy Bannion (Jessica Harper) landed on the doorstep of a prestigious dance academy in a small German town and promptly witnessed another student fleeing in terror.

Italian scaremaster Dario Argento's magnum opus co-stars Alida Valli, Joan Bennett, Stefania Casini, Udo Kier. 98 min.

What happens to them that night is more terrible than anything Mr. Gang was conceiving for his perfect horror film. In Mandarin with English subtitles.
