This reminds of about a decade earlier when Francis Ford Coppola made Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1992) and this was followed by several low-budget films – Bram Stoker’s Burial of the Rats (1995), Bram Stoker’s Legend of the Mummy (1997) and Bram Stoker’s Shadowbuilder (1997) – that claimed similar authorial validation above the title despite often being based on only the slimmest connection to any of Stoker’s writings.ĭracula’s Guest is nominally based on – or one should say shares its title with – Dracula’s Guest (1914), a single chapter story fragment that was published after Stoker’s death by his widow in the collection Dracula’s Guest and Other Weird Stories (1914). The film claims the very authorial title of Bram Stoker’s Dracula’s Guest. From the 2010s, Feifer has left the horror genre and now churns out a series of excruciating family films and tv movies. Feifer has also directed a handful of low-budget non-serial killer horror films with A Dead Calling (2005), Lethal Eviction (2005), The Graveyard (2006) and Grim Reaper (2007).
All of these can be noted for an extremely liberal treatment of the facts of their respective cases. (2008), Bundy: An American Icon (2009) and Drifter: Henry Lee Lucas (2009). Feifer first appeared on this site’s radar as a specialist of sorts in serial killer biopics with the likes of Chicago Massacre: Richard Speck (2007), Ed Gein: The Butcher of Plainfield (2007), Boston Strangler: The Untold Story (2008), B.T.K.
Dracula’s Guest was the eleventh film of low-budget director Michael Feifer.
