Horror/Thriller | Director: Ken Russell | modern adaptation of Bram Stoker's novel | Starring: Amanda Donohoe, Hugh Grant, Sammi Davis
Luscious Amanda Donohoe, cliché free Hugh Grant, bizarre and surrealistic environments.


Lesbianism, paganism, mystery, religion, archaeology, humor, murder, monsters–how can you lose? This was part of a three-picture deal that director Ken Russell had with Vestron pictures, and included the excellent "Gothic" (1986) and D.H. Lawrence's "The Rainbow" (1989). The 1980s was possibly his purest period where he had a very free-hand in his productions. It should be noted that Russell is a great adapter of D. H. Lawrence, and has done some justice to Aldous Huxley with "The Devils" (his only political-film that surely ranks as horror), so literature is no problem for this most-controversial director. His infatuation with Britain's folklore is so apparent in this and his other films! In-fact, there is a scene where a genuine folk-song about the "Dampton Worm" is sung, since the legend is a real one from an old Anglo-Saxon kingdom.
