Good horror-comedy seems exceedingly rare. SHAWN OF THE DEAD and WHAT
WE DO IN THE SHADOWS come to mind, and what they both did was to aim at
a savvy audience who'd laugh only at something funny. Sadly, the modern adventures of Dracula's lackey, RENFIELD, are content with a cartoonish super-antihero, dragging an uninspired plot through familiar motions.
(Martial arts? Really?) Admittedly, Nicolas Cage's dark overlord is a
visual and occasionally energetic treat, but he's the only undead
presence here. Minimally recommended.
