Taking up where the second film's cliffhanger ending left off, Dracula (veteran character actor Rutger Hauer) has escaped to his native Romania, which is in the grips of a terrible civil war. Vampire hunters Luke (Jason London) and Father Uffizi (Jason Scott Lee) have tracked him there, and are intent on pursuing the bloodsucker and putting an end to him once and for all. But their task is complicated by the war zone around them and the fact that Dracula is holding Luke's beloved Elizabeth hostage. Playing off the terror of open spaces and war-torn landscapes, DRACULA III is an action-horror film marked by strong performances and character interactions, especially between protagonists Luke and Uffizi.

  • More horror-filled terror in the modern DRACULA series presented by Wes Craven, DRACULA III: LEGACY adds Rutger Hauer (CONFESSIONS OF A DANGEROUS MIND, THE HITCHER) to a hot returning cast starring Jason Scott Lee (THE JUNGLE BOOK), Jason London (GRIND, OUT COLD) and Roy Scheider (JAWS). The feared Dracula (Hauer) leads vampire hunters Father Uffizi (Lee) and Luke (London) back to eastern Europe and a country plagued by civil war. There they discover powerful local warlords are assisting Dracula by capturing victims and delivering them to feed the vampires residing in Dracula's castle! And to make matters worse, Father Uffizi must face his own temptations as he struggles to overcome the vampire virus within himself! With sizzling stars, a riveting story and stunning special effects, this suspense-filled thriller will satisfy anyone with a taste for terrifying entertainment!

    At least in the cinematic morass that is modern movies, “Dracula III” is better than the wimpy vampire lore pioneered by Anne Rice.

    At least he's ending somewhere just north of mediocre.

    ...contains some decent acting and some solid atmospherics. The only thing it doesn't contain is a script adequate enough to develop any serious thrills, shocks, or suspense.
