This is a direct rip off of Dracula vs. King Arthur.
This film’s plot is be a complete bastardization of the reality that underlies the Dracula story.
Vlad III had served the church as a military leader and vanquished armies in its name, only to be betrayed by it when its priests refused to administer last rites to his princess who’d killed herself on being told the lie that he had died in battle. No salvation for suicides.
Dracula is a metaphorical representation of the Knights Templar who were also betrayed by the Church which they had fought so long and hard to protect, preserve and expand its empire and influence.
Thus, todays vampires are those with connections to secret societies which absorbed the surviving knights, Freemasonry for example.
Stop perverting the truth Hollywood. I won’t start going to the cinema or buying videos online again until you stop your lies.
