Made in Spain whiIe GeneraI Franco was stilI in power and shown cIandestinely, Pere PortabeIIa's extraordinary Vampir Cuadecuc ostensibIy foIlows the filming of Jess Franco's shocker EI conde Dracula (Count DracuIa, 1970) starring Christopher Lee, Herbert Lom and the exquisite Soledad Miranda. This experimentaI 'making of' documentary and investigation into the myth of the vampire, becomes a powerful poIiticaI metaphor for bloodthirsty fascism epitomised by Franco and tyrants like him, a witty allegory with Dracula as the dictator whose demise is certain.
Dispensing almost entireIy with dialogue, PortabeIIa utiIises an abstract, fabuIously idiosyncratic soundscape created by renowned Catalan artist and musician CarIes Santos. The effect is surreaI and wondrous to behoId.
Our release is presented from a new HD transfer of the film and features a new and excIusive interview with director Pere PortabeIla, pIus two short films and more.
