Love at First Bite
Your favorite pain in the neck is about to bite your funny bone!
Directed by Stan Dragoti
Produced by Melvin Simon Productions, American International Pictures
A lighthearted, disco-era spoof that plays Dracula as a fish-out-of-water romantic comedy protagonist rather than a threat, mining humor from the clash between gothic horror tropes and 1970s New York culture.
Dracula and Renfield relocate to '70s era New York in search of Cindy Sondheim, the reincarnation of Dracula's one true love, Mina Harker. "Trouble adjusting" is a wild understatement for the Count as he battles Cindy's psychiatrist, Jeffrey Rosenberg, a descendant of Van Helsing, who may be in love with Cindy too.
