Sven- Scream Blacula Scream

From Wiki- Dying Voodoo queen Mama Loa chooses adopted apprentice Lisa Fortier as her successor, leaving her arrogant biological son Willis outraged.  Seeking revenge, he buys the bones of Prince Mamuwalde, otherwise known as the vampire Blacula, from the former shaman of the voodoo cult and uses voodoo to resurrect the vampire to do his bidding. However, while it brings Blacula back to life, he bites Willis upon awakening. Willis now finds himself in a curse of his own doing: made into a vampire hungering for blood and a slave to the creature he sought to control.(me now) After many vampire, reincarnation, and voodoo shenanigans, the good woman stabs Blacula's voodoo doll.  The end.

It isn't a bad movie, but somehow isn't as fun as the first one.  William H. Marshall as Prince Mamuwalde / Blacula is the best part of the picture, with the poor cinematography being the worst.  The sound track is cool but give us a rest from the drums in the dramatic parts on occasion.

Next week- Destroy All Monsters
