Plot Summary, Synopsis, Review: IMDb - dalli.biz - zimbio.com - letmewatchthis.ch - netlabsystems.com/r: «...In Nicely's politically incorrect reimagining, Dracula (Karl Andrew) is a twentyish college student who, after walking the earth for 500 years, just wants to get an education. His roommates, the flamboyant Matt (Riley Wood) and the slovenly Billy (Landen Celano), make a $20 bet over who can pull the meanest prank on Drac. Billy's stunt is pretty harmless - he dumps a sack full of rice outside Drac's coffin - while Matt shows a surprisingly cruel streak: He sends Drac to chomp on a cross-dressing prostitute who has AIDS. Nicely's dialogue in this scene exemplifies his campy, anything-goes approach to the material. (Dracula: "I came to suck you dry." Prostitute: "Well, usually I'd make you buy me a drink first, but it's been a slow month!") His finest work is with Celano. Mostly, Billy just hangs around the apartment wearing a stained wife-beater and eating a bucket of chicken. The only time we see him out of his element is when he executes a brilliant plan to cure Drac of AIDs, and orders the count into a cave to beat off. The guy is such an irredeemable ogre that you wonder how he and Matt ever came to be roommates. I mean, wouldn't Matt at least want to do some interior decorating? Dracula: Revamped has some gaps in logic - if Drac is allergic to the sun, then how does he get to class? ...».
