Mini-review: Blacula (1972)

Blacula
Directed by William Crain



With a title this amazing, this movie should have been so much better. Nowhere near as funny or silly as it ought to have been, a good deal of this movie is actually pretty straight-forward and dry. William Marshall gives a good performance, but this is over-shadowed by the fact that the movie itself is a bit of a joke, and his performance is far too good to belong in a blaxploitation flick. Don't get suckered in by the title; this movie is not particularly fun, funny, or even original at all.

★★★★☆☆☆☆☆☆
