vampire in venice (1988)


aka Nosferatu in Venice
"It's bad luck to kill a bat."
A vampire hunter (Christopher Plummer) arrives in Venice on the hunt for Nosferatu (Klaus Kinski)) during Carnival season. He stays with an old family and is helped in the hunt by their family priest (Donald Pleasence).
Atmospheric film that makes great use of its location, using the unease that pervades the city to full effect, creating a creepy vampire chiller, though it does drag due to its pacing.
