Wonderful character development!

In other words,this film is a surreal ride.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

This is a sequel to Dracula. It is also a sequel to Frankenstein this is a great movie. It has great acting. It also has a great story line. It also has special effects. It also has great music. This is a great movie. See it. 4.8 is underrating it. It is a great horror film. It is also a great musical. It is one of the best musical of all time. Ringo Star is in it so it has to be a great musical. The this movie. It is so different. You need to see this movie. It is a must see. Dracula (March 1931) is better. Dracula (1992) is better. Nosferatu (1922) is also better. Dracula (1958) is also better. Dracula (1979) is also better. Dracula's Daughter (1936) is also better. But still this is a great horror movie see it.

I'd heard a lot about this film and even though I love Nilsson, I expected very little of it. Out of curiosity, I found a copy on Ebay and bought it. When i watched it today, it was everything i'd expected, but I really enjoyed it.It's the type of film that needs to be taken for what it is: rock musicians doing a campy horror film in the 70's.So the plot was weak, but the music was excellent. The acting was not awesome, but I didn't think it would be.If you really like high quality movies that require a lot of brainpower, I'd suggest passing this one up. But if you just want something fun and some great tunes, I'd check it out.

This movie was Excellent as I recall ! ( but then again my brain was a little fuzzy each of the 8 times that i saw it back in the 70's)I too have been looking for what seems like EONS for a good of copy of this great flick! What would put me in Fan Heaven is a DVD with added songs, out takes, little known facts, interviews of the cast , and an added Cd of the original sound track ! MY OPINION , it was great. I saw it 8 times in one day in the 70's, on a day that my classes were cancelled at college. I loved it . I loved Harry. I loved Ringo. I loved the fact that they BOTH were in a movie together. I loved the songs , and I played my Son of Dracula Sound trak LP w/ the bat wing covers over and over till someone borrowed it and never gave it back (shame on them) . This is a good flick if you are lucky enough to get a GOOD copy of it. Don't settle for just a copy. Get the best. and let me know where you found it !!!!!

We all have them, you know...those movies that for whatever reason we somehow managed to miss in the theatre and can't find available on video and never gets shown on TV. This one, for many years, was mine. My holy grail film.I have loved the music of Harry Nilsson for 30 years, and the Beatles as well both solo and collectively even longer. When I read about this film in the pages of the late, lamented Creem magazine, I couldn't wait to see it! When I was a teenager, my friends (well, the cool ones anyway) had the (excellent) soundtrack album with its generous helpings of film dialogue, so I knew lines from SoD long before I saw it. But it rarely (never where I could see it!)was shown on TV and was not available through normal video channels...I finally got a copy through a video service that specialized in foreign Kung Fu and porn (!). Breathlessly, I put it in the VCR, hit play, and...Well, lets just say it wasn't exactly worth the wait.Son of Dracula is, I am sorry to say, just a terrible film in nearly every respect. It looks cheap and is horribly acted by everyone involved, especially Harry, whom I regard as one of the finest songwriters ever, but is no actor. Ringo is, well, Ringo. It's hard to dis the likeable Mister Starkey and be convincing about it, and he gives a typical Ringo performance here-no more, no less. He gets by , as always in his non-drumming endeavors, on his charm. I had hoped that it would be better served by the direction of Freddie Francis, the Hammer horror veteran, but SoD just looks so shoddy that it is obvious that he couldn't care less and was just picking up a paycheck. The story is a jumbled, confusing mess, and the makeup is ineptly done. Perhaps this can be excused a little by the fact that SoD was intended as a spoof, but even on these terms it is a failure.That being said, SoD is not entirely without merit-it's great to see Nilsson perform "live" (he never did so during his real career) with an all-star band, and there is a clever scene where Harry puts the bite on a nubile young female while T.Rex's "Chariot Choogle" from his "Slider" LP is playing in the background (they even show Harry putting the needle on the record, which sports a T.Rex WaxCo. label-unseen in the USA and very cool for this fan of not only Harry but Marc Bolan as well).I can't recommend this to anyone but hardcore Nilsson fans (we are few in number but ardent nonetheless!), and even then with a caveat; my advice is don't expect much and you won't be disappointed. Much.
