‘Dracula’, the latest Hollywood movie which was temporarily suspended by the Public Performances Board is now being released after a second review. It is now being screened at Ultra, Majestic Cineplex Colombo. The film was to be released last December but the ‘Censor Board’ suspended its release.

Directed by Italian horror filmmaker Dario Argento with the screenplay by Argento, Enrique Cerezo, Stefano Piani and Antonio Tentori, the film features elements from the novel.

The tale begins with Jonathan Harker, journeying by train and carriage from England to Count Dracula’s crumbling, remote castle situated in the Carpathian Mountains on the border of Transylvania. The purpose of his mission is to catalogue the big library of Dracula. At first enticed by Dracula’s gracious manner, Harker soon discovers that he has become a prisoner in the castle. He also begins to see disquieting facets of Dracula’s nocturnal life. One night while searching for a way out of the castle, and against Dracula’s strict admonition not to venture outside his room at night, Harker falls under the spell of three wanton female vampires, the Brides of Dracula.”

Imported by Rio films, ‘Dracula’ is a CEL release.
