A frustrated filmmaker, facing creative paralysis, turns to an A.I. chatbot in order to make his latest movie a hit. The result is a series of increasingly outrageous vignettes exploring the myth of Dracula in all its forms. From a wild chase through the streets of modern Transylvania to eerie hauntings in the Romanian countryside, cinematic provocateur Radu Jude returns with another boundary-pushing epic featuring a union-busting Dracula breaking a strike, an adaptation of the first Romanian vampire novella, thwarted romance, fields of phalluses, lots of blood, and much more.

I’s hard to resist its irreverence and the onslaught of ideas and quips, factoids and routines.

Any flaw is woven in as part of the fabric. Every bug is a feature. But to what end, exactly?

As often as you may be tickled by its fanged silliness, you’ll also be drained.

Movie Brief

The logic behind using AI to point out that most of its practitioners are creatively bankrupt is debatable; it’s also typical Jude, whose movies often feel like middle fingers directed at whatever’s caught his attention at the time.

Hey, Have You Seen ...?

All the Jude hallmarks are here, but it proved too meandering and gimmicky for full investment—especially with that fifty-minute sequence dragging simply because my brain had already been trained on ADHD-levels of pornographic content swipes.

Rated: 5/10

An experimental, zany, bold, subversive and satirical interpretation of the classic novel by Bram Stoker.
