James Kline and J.H. Alison continue 1980s Vampire Horror Month: Part 2 with the obscure flop Dracula’s Last Rites. Was it worth the $2 rental on Prime? Probably not—but we’re here to talk about it anyway. 🧛♂️
We kick things off with our quick thoughts on the film’s intriguing concept that failed miserably in execution. In the Weekly History Segment, we discuss epic one-hour wrestling matches and share some of our all-time favorites. On the metal side, we explore what Triumph was up to in the early ’80s. 🎸
Production notes include director Dominick Paris, the film’s unusual New Jersey setting (only the fourth movie ever filmed there), and hilarious credits giving thanks to Holiday Inn. We even read some wild fan feedback on this cinematic disaster.
The full review covers everything: daytime vampires clocking in 9-to-5, a sheriff vampire, wild car chases, Ted’s weird obsession with his wife’s dead mom’s body, and of course—the unforgettable Vamp Mom.
