From “Nosferatu” to “Morbius” via “Dracula”, Michel & Michel reveal the false connections of the great cinema vampires…
In Reinfeld, currently at the cinema, Nicolas Cage puts on Dracula’s cape and sharp dentures and joins the great line of cinema vampires, initiated in 1922 by the essential Nosferatu by Friedrich Murnau. He even revisits, for the time of a black and white sequence, the unforgettable Dracula of 1931 by taking shot by shot some scenes immortalized by Bela Lugosi.
Vampire hunters in their spare time, and full-time false connection trackers, Michel and Michel take advantage of this outing to offer you a special program dedicated to the gaffes, errors and failures of the greatest vampiric productions. A playful way to revisit this sub-genre of horror cinema, carried by a creature with long teeth that is omnipresent on the big screen.
On the program of this best-of: Nosferatutherefore, but also Dracula 1931 version, Lost Generation with its punk ghouls led by a young Kiefer Sutherland, Dracula 1992 version by Francis Ford Coppola, Interview with a vampire and his refined bloodsuckers camped by the trio Tom Cruise / Brad Pitt / Kirsten Dunst, Blade carried by the “daywalker” Wesley Snipes, the little-known but cult Vampires by John Carpenter, the first chapter of the vampiric romance Twilight between Bella and Edward, Van Helsing and his monster hunter Hugh Jackman, the gothic Underworld 2, and the Marvel Morbius. Not to mention, of course, Buffy the Vampire Slayer aka Sarah Michelle Gellar.
Take out the wooden stakes, the garlic cloves, the crucifixes and the yellow markers: AlloCiné’s technical specialists will take you on this journey to the land of long teeth. A film crew, traveling scissors, nothing escapes them. And it’s blood for blood, heavy, very, very heavy!
