With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Great for vampire fans and fans of sharp satire. Vampire lore, given its own spin. Shelve it next to Dracula. The jokes have targets, and it hits most of them.
- The mood
- Scary.
- The pace
- Builds dread steadily, at 1 hr 28 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
- What might put you off
- It's in Spanish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Not one for anyone who hates jump scares.
The Count of Capranegra, accompanied by his chamberlain, travels to Soborlskaia to claim the castle of his great-great-grandfather who died in strange circumstances. But to get the fortune he must first pass a difficult test.
