The snow, lighting and dreary setting succeed in conveying ...
...the children is far more active than those of the adults who appear quite depressed. The two leads were aged 11 at the time of release and they do a fantastic job.
The problem with the film for me is that whilst the story makes it more than your typical hack and slash vampire film it's far from gripping. It's a nice tale of friendship however if you're looking for a reason not to turn it off you'll come up with very few. ...

This is an excellent film that has a brilliant story. The story is quite simple but features some great dialogue and quirky special effects. The cast is not exactly full of big stars but John Landis, who wrote and directed this film has managed to get some brilliant performances from the cast. The transformation of David into the werewolf is quite impressive and well done. The scene at the start of the film is very eerie and very ...

Zoltan, Hound of Dracula - totally barking vampire flick.
Advantages: You'll spend more time laughing rather than shaking behind the sofa
Disadvantages: Weak story. Quite annoying at times.
Zoltan, Hound of Dracula (also known as Dracula's Dog) is a vampire film with a twist. The vampires in this film are dogs. Set in modern times, (the film was made in 1978), the story starts in the old country, Romania. All the vampires are dead, having been slain and entombed. Such a tomb is uncovered by the Russian military, who are carrying out excavations in the area. Not knowing what they have stumbled upon at first, a single soldier is posted ...
...the guard, Zoltan is awakened. Zoltan, a large, muscular hound (looks like a Doberman), goes on to release another vampire, a vampire slave/servant of Dracula played by Reggie Nalder (better known for playing the lead vampire in the 1970's version of Salem's Lot). The pair, without a master, become hell-bent on finding a new master, the last remaining descendant of the Dracula bloodline. Michael Drake (played by Michael Pataki), is this last remaining ...
