First Look Trailer for 'Los Vampires' - 1930s Spanish Dracula Homage

"She's forgotten where the role ends... and she begins." ? Horror fans need to take a look at this! An early festival promo trailer has debuted for the indie horror film titled Los Vampires, an intriguing recreation of the 1930s Dracula horror films. This is premiering at the upcoming 2026 Fantasia Film Festival this summer. From writer & director Craig Mitchell, Los Vampires is the fictionalized account of the making of George Melford's 1931 Spanish Dracula. Apparently Melford was using the exact same sets at night that were used during the day to film the original 1931 Bela Lugosi Dracula film. He made his version titled Drácula starring Carlos Villarías and it might even be better than the other. Fantasia adds: "Henry Ian Cusick and Thomas Kretschmann captivate as uncanny surrogates for Carlos Villarías & Bela Lugosi, while Daniela Couso, Tony-winner Jefferson Mays, Oscar Nuñez, and Jorge Diaz round out an immaculate cast. Los Vampires is a meticulously designed, occult-tinged tribute to the dignity of performance... and a darkly imaginative, bittersweet love letter to old Hollywood – and the forgotten struggles that made it what it was." This sounds like tons of fun! Not only are the set recreations impressive, but it actually looks quite spooky, too. Here's the pitch: "Dueling Draculas on a 1930 film shoot awash in mysticism and murder." View below. // Continue Reading ›
