Who's Afraid of Dracula?

Fracchia contro Dracula

1985 ·1h 28m · ★ 6.1 (222)

Fracchia is desperate: he has to sell a house with at least five bathrooms within three days or his boss will fire him. Incredibly, he and his pal Filini manage to find the perfect house, a castle in Transylvania owned by some count Vlad... things get even worse when they meet the Count and his sister, who has a crush on Fracchia and decides to marry him!

Why it matters

A quirky Italian horror-comedy that blends slapstick misadventure with gothic vampire tropes in an offbeat ’80s package.

  • A cult curiosity showcasing the zany charm of Italian genre cinema beyond the usual cannibal and giallo fare.
  • Features physical comedy and absurd situations that contrast sharply with the eerie Transylvanian castle setting.
  • Not for vampire purists—leaning heavily into farce and broad humor rather than scares or atmosphere.
  • Perfect for fans of off-kilter horror hybrids and those curious about Italy’s more playful side of supernatural cinema.
