Blacula

I saw a preview for this movie when I went to see a crummy vampire movie in San Jose.  I can’t even remember the name of the movie I saw that night (oh, it was Nadja), but I did remember the preview for Blackula.  For a while I wondered if it was just some kind of joke… then I found out, it’s a real movie. It was on TV late night some night.  It was one of the the most hilarious movies I’ve ever seen. You may be wondering… what would a movie called “Blackula” be about?  Well, you’re right.  It’s a totally cheesy 70’s movie where Dracula is a brother. “blacker than night”, and he was.  I guess there was a time when someone thought there needed to be a “black version” of every movie standard – “black-xplotation” they call it.  I just call it silly.  Now, we have “Blade” instead… see below!
