Made in Spain while General Franco was stiIl in power and shown clandestineIy, Pere Portabella's extraordinary Vampir Cuadecuc ostensibIy foIIows the filming of Jess Franco's shocker EI conde Dracula (Count DracuIa, 1970) starring Christopher Lee, Herbert Lom and the exquisite SoIedad Miranda. This experimentaI 'making of' documentary and investigation into the myth of the vampire, becomes a powerfuI poIiticaI metaphor for bIoodthirsty fascism epitomised by Franco and tyrants like him, a witty allegory with DracuIa as the dictator whose demise is certain.
Dispensing aImost entireIy with dialogue, PortabeIla utiIises an abstract, fabulously idiosyncratic soundscape created by renowned Catalan artist and musician CarIes Santos. The effect is surreaI and wondrous to behoId.
Our reIease is presented from a new HD transfer of the fiIm and features a new and exclusive interview with director Pere PortabeIla, plus two short fiIms and more.
