"Graf Dracula in Oberbayern" or "Dracula Blows His Cool" is a West German / Italian co-production from 1979, so this one is already over 35 years old. I must say I am neither familiar with director Carl Schenkel or writer "Grünbach", but I have seen other works by Erich Tomek and everybody else who has will know what to expect here. Tomek is known for writing comedy films with many sexual references, naked women and this is exactly what this film here is. Of course, there is a major impact in terms of the vampire film genre as the title already tells us as well. But they never even tried to be scary actually. But they tried to be funny and like it is the case with so many other German comedy films from the 1970s, they did not succeed. This is one of these uncountable trashy comedy films from 1970's West Germany. And that's why the only approach to give this film is the one of a guilty pleasure as luckily it never takes itself seriously, which also shows at the very end with how the makers spoof the idea of a perfect happy ending. I cannot say I am familiar with the cast here at all and the only one I know is Ralf Wolter and Winnetou fans will be surprised to see him in a completely different film and role. I see this 90-minute film has many foreign actors who were dubbed by German voice actors, such as Elmar Wepper. As a whole, this was not a good watch and I don#t recommend these 1.5 hours. Thumbs down and only worth seeing for the biggest vampire film fans who have seen everything else.

There are comedies that are funny. There comedies about Dracula that are very funny. This not one of them. This movie is not funny. If a Dracula movie is not going to funny then it should be scary. It is not scary. The acting in this movie is awful. The story line is awful. Dracula as never been so not scary. He is not funny ether. It is just stupid. Do not wast your time. Do not wast you money. Do not see this movie. This movie is pooh pooh. This is a pooh pooh movie. There real are not a lot of comedies that are funny. Most just think all comedies are funny. I am so one who think there are some comedies. But most of them are not. This is one that is not. But not Dracula movie are great. This is one that is not. Most people will laugh at any thing. I am some who like to laugh. I just don't laugh at any thing.

When photographer Stan turns his ancestral castle into a discotheque, he is unaware that his vampiric great-grandparents still live in the crypt, having spent many years feeding on stolen bottled plasma (supplied to them by their loyal servant Boris). Now, with an endless stream of young clubbers partying mere feet from their coffins, the undead couple cannot resist rising from their tomb to sample fresh blood.A late-70s sex comedy from Germany, Dracula Blows His Cool is a puerile mix of slapstick, smut, and disco music that is unlikely to tickle the ribs of even the most unsophisticated audience. However, red-blooded males might find it easy to forgive the embarrassingly awful comedic content since the film also features a constant stream of nudity from a bevy of beautiful, buxom women.And, if like me, you find that you can, from time-to-time, when in the right frame of mind, actually derive enjoyment from shockingly awful films (with loads of tits and soft-core sex), then there is a slim chance you could find this dated slice of trash worth watching. But it might be a good idea to get drunk first, just in case.4 out of 10 (or possibly 5, if suitably rat-arsed).

See this movie it is loads of laughs from all of the characters. Fans of Benny Hill, Monty Python, and anybody looking for a crazy and different movie needs to watch this. Not recommened for younger viewers because of the vast amounts of nudity. Great for lovers looking for a little romance movie. Has a little horror but is okay for you because it is quick. This is a type of movie if you rent it you will want to buy it. This is a great escape movie from the modern action movie or lousy sex movie(Showgirls). RENT IT IF YOU CAN FIND IT.
