LOS ANGELES ― A CITY ONCE TERRORIZED BY VAMPIRES, IT TOOK DECADES TO HEAL FROM THE HORROR INFLICTED UPON IT. IF ONLY THEY’D STAY DEAD…

Now, as mysterious killings begin anew in the City of Angels, a young reporter named Tina Thomas finds herself on the trail of the creature she believes responsible for this newfound carnage. In doing so, she meets a lost soul named Kross whose life was forever shattered by the very person Tina is searching for. Together they seek to stop these murders and put an end to the nightmare plaguing L.A. ― by killing Blacula!

But unbeknownst to them, Blacula too is on a mission, and he stalks the night seeking revenge on the man who killed his bride and destroyed the life he once had… Count Dracula! From the Eisner Award-nominated team behind the sold-out, smash-hit horror series Killadelphia ― breakout -star writer Rodney Barnes and superstar artist Jason Shawn Alexander bring to life a new terrifying chapter in the story of an African royal turned blood-thirsty vampire, based on the classic MGM horror film.

William Marshall (Twilight’s Last Gleaming, Pee-wee’s Playhouse, Maverick) stars as African Prince Mamuwalde in Blacula, the avant-garde blaxploitation horror film that’s both subversive and refreshingly entertaining. In 1780, Mamuwalde travels to Transylvania seeking Count Dracula’s (Charles Macaulay, Splash, Star Trek) support for the abolition of the slave trade between their countries. Instead, Dracula curses the prince by transforming him into a vampire and locking him in a coffin. Two centuries later, Blacula is set free in modern day Los Angeles to terrorize the city in his nightly quest for blood. William Crain (Dr. Black, Mr. Hyde, TV’s The Dukes of Hazzard) directs and Vonetta McGee (Hammer, The Eiger Sanction, Repo Man, The Great Silence), Denise Nicholas (Let’s Do It Again, TV’s In the Heat of the Night, Room 222), Elisha Cook (Rosemary’s Baby, The KIlling, House on Haunted HIll) and Thalmus Rasulala (Friday Foster, New Jack City, Above the Law) co-star.

STARRING: Denise Nicholas, Vonetta McGee, Gordon Pinsent, Thalmus Rasulala
