Friday Night Movie: Vampirella

On the distant vampire-planet of Drákulon, society peacefully subsists on synthetic rivers of blood until the rebel vampire Vlad Tepish murders the ruling Council of Elders and flees to Earth, determined to resurrect an ancient vampiric legacy.

Among the slain was Ella’s father, and the daughter-avenger follows Vlad’s trail. Striking out alone in space, Ella is shipwrecked on Mars, falls into suspended slumber for centuries, and eventually finds herself on Earth thanks to an astronaut rescue mission.

Now calling herself Vampirella, she discovers that Vlad has reinvented himself in Las Vegas as a charismatic performer and is leading a vampire regime threatening humanity. Teaming up with a covert human vampire-hunting unit led by Adam Van Helsing, Vampirella must confront her own vampiric origins, forsake her moral code, and wage war on the night-breed to stop Vlad’s eclipse of the human race.

Amid Las Vegas chaos, sci-fi gore, and B-movie flair, she embraces her destiny: to avenge Drákulon’s fall and to stand between humanity and undead annihilation.
