Dracula 3000 (2004)

Director: Darrell Roodt
Starring: Casper Van Dien, Erika Eleniak, Coolio

Synopsis:
A salvage crew comes across a ghost ship bearing a cursed cargo.

Impressions:
I came in with zero expectations. That was expecting too much. As far as Z-grade South African scifi films primarily filmed in abandoned industrial plants, I think I'd rather have Space Mutiny. This is quite the wretched piece of garbage that'd earn my "Burn It" rating if I didn't actually find Coolio's over-the-top antics once he's turned to be kinda funny. Poor Tiny Lister gets the short end of the stick script-wise. I'd actually like his performance if he wasn't written to be Sexual Harassment Panda. Casper van Dien does okay doing the generic hero guy thing, but he can't do anything to elevate this rubbish. Langley Kirkwood deserves a special nod of one of the worst Draculas I've seen. Unless you have a taste for bad movies, don't watch this crap.

Rating:
Avoid It
