Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Scanialara You won't be disappointed!

Evengyny Thanks for the memories!

Greenes Please don't spend money on this.

Spikeopath A teenage girl, bit of a rebel, is sent away to a girls school. Her fiery nature brings her to the attention of the science teacher, who, using a Carpathian amulet, uses the girl for nefarious deeds.OK! You understand why plenty of folk love the cruddy schlockers of the 50s (I love me plenty as well), the films that were the bottom half of a bottom of the barrel drive-in double bill. Quite often there's a charm to be found, even some that genuinely have craft, guile and surprise enough to warrant love and affection. Blood of Dracula (AKA: Blood Is My Heritage) is devoid of charm and doesn't work hard to earn support.As has been pointed out by the horror faithful over the years, there is no blood and no Dracula in this film - though Dracula as plural does get a mention during one of the many many long and dull passages of chatter within. The narrative plods along until angry girl meets angry science teacher and it's hypnotism time! Yay. Enter a creature that looks like Eddie Munster with bad teeth. All violent damage is done off screen, an interim pop tune and dance sequence is just bizarre, and the plot's motives really don't make any sense.Herman Cohen (producer) was not dumb. I Was a Teenage Werewolf and I Was a Teenage Frankenstein, the two other films in this schlocky trilogy, are good fun. He was capable of overseeing some good movies pitched at a teen audience - even having something to say about the youth/adult divide. Sadly his vampire excursion is not only lazy, it's also very dull. 2/10

MARIO GAUCI It could not fail that after having taken the myths of the Werewolf and Frankenstein into the rock'n'roll era, producer Herman Cohen would eventually turn his attentions to another horror icon – the Vampire. Still, not only does Dracula have nothing to do with the film, but the bloodsucker here (a rebellious teen at an exclusive girls' school) is hypnotized into becoming one and even undergoes a hideous transformation (an image of which in an old genre-related reference book is how I first learned of this low-budget title) in the process!; besides, the script takes its feminist angle all the way by making the 'mad scientist' a woman too! Incidentally, the film is already half over before the first attack – having, in the interim, assisted incredulously at a teeny bopper number by one Jerry Blaine and oodles of tedious chatter (including the villainess' obligatory spouting of her misguided credo). Needless to say, little acting or style is required when the objective is solely exploitation; even the double come-uppance at the climax is dealt with rather abruptly! All things considered, at a mere 69 minutes, BLOOD OF Dracula is harmless enough (even if the copy I watched froze a couple of times!) – but it clearly rates as no more than a footnote in horror-film history; thankfully, however, the subgenre would soon be back on track with the seminal release of Hammer's HORROR OF Dracula (1958)

MartinHafer Despite the title and the image IMDb is currently posting along with this movie, this is really not a Dracula film and Christopher Lee is not in it. Instead, it's a very, very low-budget and dopey movie about a girls school where a rather bizarre relationship develops between a crazy teacher and an impressionable student. It turns out that this teacher has some bizarre masters thesis involving,...well, I really have no idea what it was about and her turning this female student into a part-time vampire made absolutely no sense. The teacher said something about doing this will "save mankind" and other crap like that, but how could turning a girl into something that looks like the love child of Lily Munster and Nosferatu help mankind--especially when it starts sucking the blood out of people??!! Oddly, although the film was made in the more conservative 1950s, there is a very strong and noticeable undercurrent of Lesbianism. There is a strong sexual chemistry between the female teacher and her female student. This makes the film a real curio, but unfortunately the plot, acting and direction are all very amateurish and it is not a film I would recommend to anyone but bad movie fans. Strictly grade-Z all the way and a not particularly good variation on I WAS A TEENAGE WEREWOLF.

seaview29 With all due respect to the other comments, I have seen and enjoyed this film for many years; originally in l958. Like most AIP pics of the time, for me, they were well produced and surprisingly, well acted. Yes, it does resemble another great cult classic film, I was a Teen-Age Werewolf' a silly title,for what is a very good movie, given Micheal Landon at the start of his career. "Blood of Dracula" has some good horror vets, Malcolm Atterbury, Louise Lewis and Richard Devon. I never saw a hint of 'lesbianism' just a very con- trolling Doctor/scientist, and I find the song "Puppy" love rather corny, but cute. These movies relied on atmosphere and imagination, unlike today's gore, blood and guts, I say to 'each his own'I just don't like to see these movies 'belittled' when they do have, and merit artistic talent.
