A campy, irreverent 1970s horror-comedy that mines absurdist humor from vampire mythology and racial satire, prioritizing laughs over scares.

In order to revive his long hibernating bride, Vampira, Count Dracula takes blood samples from several beautiful models, but during the transfusion, Vampira's race turns from white to black.
