Dec. 17 (UPI) — Vertical released the trailer for Dracula on Wednesday. The film opens Feb. 8 in U.S. theaters.
Caleb Landry Jones plays Count Dracu in this adaptation. Christoph Waltz plays a priest who fills the Van Helsing role of hunting Dracula.
Waltz also appeared in Guillermo del Toro’s recent Frankenstein so he cornered the recent Mary Shelley and Bram Stoker adaptations. Zoë Bleu plays Elisabeta, the reincarnation of the Count’s wife.
