The exclusive Seward Sanitarium has been plagued by strange events, all following the taking over of a nearby abbey by Transylvanian Count Dracula. Patients are behaving with increased violent and lustful temperaments, while mysterious bite marks are appearing on their throats. Visiting professor, Van Helsing, believes it to be the work of vampires, although head doctor, Arthur Seward, is adamant that everything can be explained rationally. But when patients and staff begin turning up dead, their bodies drained of blood, Van Helsing realizes that he must act quickly to save the others. All the while, Dracula has set his sights on the beautiful Mina, whom he intends to make his bride…
Acclaimed as the most star studded X rated film ever made, Phillip Marshak’s DRACULA SUCKS is an ambitious adaptation of Bram Stoker’s classic novel and stars Jamie Gillis as Dracula, along with Annette Haven, Serena, Kay Parker, John Leslie, Seka, John Holmes, William Margold, Paul Thomas, Mike Ranger, and cult character actor Reggie Nalder (Mark of the Devil) as Van Helsing. Peekarama proudly presents this quintessential blend of hardcore sex and drive-in movie flair on 4K UHD, newly restored from its original 35mm camera negative, and also featuring the radically different Lust at First Bite version in a fresh restoration.
