Based on the novel by Bram StokerWritten by Kate Hamill
Directed by J. Daniel Herring
Kate Hamill boldly reimagines Bram Stoker’s classic vampire tale, replacing gothic tropes of villains who wear evil on their sleeve and damsels in distress with all-too-human monsters and ferocious women who strike at the heart of the patriarchy. In her thrilling new adaptation, "Dracula: A Feminist Revenge Fantasy, Really," Hamill confronts the sexism in Stoker’s original work, transforming the story into a feminist battle cry. Bouncing between horror and humor, this gory, funny, and fierce retelling upends Victorian notions of fainting ladies and dashing villains, asking who the real monsters are and who is truly in distress.
