The film tells of a group of jogging thieves who decided to storm the palace, where the notorious Earl, Dracula, was released. In those moments, Dracula immediately decided to take that road to New Orleans to suddenly find the enemy of her daughter Mary Mary Helsing.
A perfect example of the kind of rigidly conventional vampire movie that wearies contemporary horror buffs.

Too scary, too gory, too gross.

Even true believers will have a hard time sinking their fangs into this thoroughly perfunctory affair.

Wilts when compared in the light with other Dracula films.

The use of Craven's name in the title is a cheesy marketing ploy and the secret to the fanged suitor's aversion to all things Christian is an even cheesier hoot.
Mary, a descendant of the prototypical vampire slayer, works at a Virgin megastore in New Orleans, and the gratuitous use of the city during Mardi Gras is the least of this movie's unoriginal sins.
