While I was morbidly fascinated by this one's climactic fashion show, neither I nor Wendigo could recommend anyone sitting through <i>Mama Dracula</i> just to see it. If I could post that scene alone off YouTube I'd call it a day.Samuel Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00934870299522899944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9149411832127844385.post-50514801095378462852010-04-28T02:29:01.058-04:002010-04-28T02:29:01.058-04:00I generally dislike vampire comedies as well.

It is interesting that Mama Dracula "scoops" the Tru Blood premise by a few decades, but by that point I'd lost all good will toward the flick. Definitely for vamp-comedy completists only.The Vicar of VHShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06832137990485130735noreply@blogger.com
