SCREAM BLACULA SCREAM 1973 (MGM)

Sequel to the classic "Blacula",

This sequel isn't as good as the original, but it is good in it's own right.

William Marshall is back as Blacula, the cursed African prince who is brought back from the dead this time by a young man during voodoo rites. Blacula immediately feeds off of him and makes him a vampire slave.

Pam Grier is Lisa Fortier, a young woman who practices voodoo and might actually be able to help Mamuwalde stop his vampire tendencies. Meanwhile the vampire count grows in the house where the prince resides. Soon it is full of the walking dead ghouls.

The attempts to make Mamuwalde human again fails and all hell breaks loose until Lisa uses a voodoo doll to bring the vampire's reign of terror to an end. This isn't too bad of a film, but no way comes near the original. The cast is very good and also includes Don Mitchell, Michael Conrad, Lynne Moody and Barbara Rhodes.

This is coming to Blu-ray soon.
