Review of Zoltan… Hound of Dracula (1977) by Tim S — 24 Jul 2014

Zoltan: Hound of Dracula (AKA Dracula's Dog) is a disappointing horror film from 1981 about a vampire dog who is looking for a new master in which to serve, killing people and other dogs along the way.

Any fan of schlock or bad movies would be drawn to the title and synopsis of this movie right away, I know I was. So we popped it in, only to discover how disappointing it was. It had the potential to be a complete piece of schlock and enjoyable, but it winds up just being boring most of the time.

Albert Band, who produced and directed some memorable horror movies during the 80's and 90's (mainly for Full Moon Pictures), swings and misses with this sleeper. And by that I mean falling asleep.

The production value is pretty good and there's some intrigue in the beginning, but it just doesn't cut the mustard.
