Vlad the Impaler, long considered the basis for Bram Stoker’s Dracula, is rising from the grave once again! Full Moon Films and Afflatus Productions has announced the arrival of Derek Hockenbrough’s ‘The Impaler’. The film looks to retell the origin story of Dracula through the notorious Romanian ruler’s death and legacy. However, Vlad III seems to be appearing in more than the gore-ridden Indie Horror flick. Universal Studios has announced that their Dracula reboot ‘Dracula Year Zero’ will also be centering on the transformation of young Vlad III into the fanged demon that we all love.
