2014's Dracula Untold attempted to give a superhero origin spin to the vampire mythos, transforming Dracula into a tragic hero rather than a menacing figure of the night. While the intent was to provide a fresh take, the movie deviated too far, turning a classic horror tale into an action-packed fantasy.
Dracula's means of reproduction is inherently a sexual act. To turn Lucy into a vampire, there has to be a blood exchange between both of them. Dracula is a perverse and multiple figure because he transforms pure and virginal women into seductresses, produces sexuality through their willing bodies.
