Nicolas Cage absolutely chomps the scenery in this campy, violent, break-up-with-your-boss horror comedy co-starring Nicholas Hoult.
is a creature feature where the creature is truly fucking featured. Dracula eats up the screen every time he appears. Part of that has to do with the bulky,the presence of his boss, it’s clear as the movie goes on that this is part of the point of it—and
Hoult’s performance as a sympathetic post-breakup sad man delivers the grounding element necessary amid all of this camp. Throughout the film there are nods and outright fourth-wall breaks as the filmmakers pay their dues to all the previous iterations of famous vampires of the past. It’s a meta-fest, from a black-and-white Bela Lugosi imitation down to the very setting:
New Orleans, a city steeped in vampire lore, mostly having to do with Anne Rice’s presence in the town. My favorite wink to the audience was when Dracula shows up in a building uninvited. The camera pans quickly to the doormat in front of the door. It reads “welcome home!” Oops.As Cage breaks out of his coffin and Hoult prettily becomes a hero worth rooting for , the whole film is delightfully spattered in gore and never strays too far away from the campiness.
