Dracula meets Sigmund Freud in this Austrian horror farce, which benefits from a polished production but exhausts its premise about halfway through.
Ruhm incorporates classic Hammer Films and "Love at First Bite" in this entertaining vampire spoof by keeping the pacing brisk, the jokes quick and the blood gushing.
Rühm has an ear for the absurd that reminds one of Monty Python. But his humor is as dry as they come - Therapy for a Vampire elicits ironic smiles, not belly laughs.
Rühm shows the right light touch for the material as it veers from psychological parody to romantic mixup comedy to campy horror, and his painterly depiction of Vienna is a marvel, so it's not really such a bother when things fizzle at the finale.
"Therapy for a Vampire" has nothing to say. It just has stuff happening, none of it repulsive and all of it performed by competent actors, but that's just not enough.
It aims to be laugh-out-loud hilarious but never rises above a few wan chuckles.
