 External Reviews
external linkHokey blaxploitation horror effort plays briskly and is amusingly dated ('Wow man nice threads, dig the fangs bro...NOOO!!!'). Not to be taken a tad seriously this is a so-so timewaster. 2/4


external linkBut tragically "Blacula" is an overrated film, both as '70s blaxploitation and as a horror vehicle. It's for the most part bloodless and for camp value doesn't stack up to blaxploitation masterpieces like "Black Belt Jones" or most of the early Pam Grierstuff.
