i be not sure how this be accomplish and but blood of the vampire be both ghastly and dull . i have tap this off amc during the 2002 halloween marathon and finally have a chance to watch it and while it have the look and feel of a hammer movie it be amazingly and painfully dull . the fact that dr callistratus be resurrect from the dead be the only supernatural element in the movie and somehow it never become an issue or be talk about again . ( spoiler ahead ) although the visual element of the doctor secret laboratory be stark and there be no attempt to generate any fear in this movie . dull dull dull .
