I refuse to believe that anyone could find Mama Dracula funny. It just isn't. If you think that Eastern Europeans pronouncing their Vs as Ws and wice wersa (see what I did there?) is comedy gold, you're wrong - besides, this idea was simply stolen from Andy Warhol's Blood for Dracula.
Academy Award winner Louise Fletcher plays Countess Dracula, who keeps herself eternally young by bathing in the blood of virgins, which is becoming harder and harder to come by, even with her twin sons (the hugely irritating Wajnberg brothers) helping to abduct young women; to solve this problem, the countess hires scientist Professor Van Bloed (James Shuman) to find a way to make artificial plasma.
How the hell did Fletcher wind up in this abysmal film? Did she sign along the dotted line while drunk, or didn't she bother reading the script beforehand? There's not one moment in this entire movie that is funny or which makes any sense. It's a collection of painfully inept scenes thrown together in a haphazard fashion by Belgian writer/director Boris Szulzinger. It's no surprise to me that he didn't make any more films after this one.
1/10.
