This is Tom and Greg in another multiverse
AmeliaApr 6, 2023Every time it leans into the campy action, it’s one of my favorite movies. Buckets of blood and Nic Cage hamming it up as Dracula? Its why we go to the movies. But for some reason they continually try to make us care about this convoluted and melodramatic Awkwafina…
Joe AApr 1, 2023Nicolas Cage didn't even know that he was filming, he’s just doing what he does every day

This movie is a lot of fun. It’s not a great story or anything but it’s a fun and bloody (I warned you) movie. Everyone is fantastic in their roles and I will probably watch this over again and again. Fuk you Kyle! 😂😂😂
evelyn likedRenfieldi thought it was really funny and no hate but awkwafina kinda ruined it with her character storyline it was so unnecessary
Morgan lovedRenfieldso funny and adorable, i loved every single scene with renfield and dracula, it was hilarious, although it wasn’t perfect, i enjoyed myself very much, all the gore was so fun and this movie was so silly, exposition felt a bit messy but i forgive it because everything else ruled
- Aaron Hajduk lovedRenfield
Hilarious. Nicolas Cage is his unhinged best as Dracula. Nicholas Hoult’s co-dependent Renfield grounds everything around the Nic Cage chaos
majd likedRenfieldfirst of all i’ve never been more attracted to hoult omg but im so mad rn? it was decent, fun and funny but omg the potential????it could’ve been INCREDIBLE with the nics whatawaste.nic as drac was great. coloring was too good. fell to my knees when carol recommended a hairbrush.
Bradley Dennis likedRenfieldFinally a film that is violently goofy. This is definitely one of the more interesting Nic Cage performances. Awkwafina is not annoying for once. The effects are so over the top and low budget but it oddly works with the tone. The kills are definitely the best part of the film
- Clay Werner is "meh" onRenfield
5.9 - had a few funny/over-the-top moments but they were sparse. Needed more Cage. CG gore didn’t work for me at all. Really fell short of expectations. The comedic, codependency angle is a unique thought & could be a fun approach, but result was better concept than execution.
neekaps likedRenfieldvery campy and sometimes gory, but still an entertaining watch. tbh he should’ve stayed victorian goth the whole movie. also needed more nic cage he was a gem. that being said, guillermo solos 6.5/10 awkwafina jumpscares
nic is "meh" onRenfieldIt was alright. Its got a blend of action and comedy, with a pretty cool modern twist on Dracula. Wouldn’t watch it again though or go out of my way to recommend it to anyone.

This was an amazing movie! Glad to see Nicolas Cage, Nicholas Hoult, Awkafina, and this great cast and how they complimented each other throughout the movie. I definitely recommend 10/10 <3 fun flix go out and see
JCJonathon ChambersOverall this was a fun movie but if you choose to wait until it's out on streaming platforms don't feel like you're missing out on much. It has some fun comedic scenes but nothing that makes you go woah!
ALAlex LambsonSurprisingly good. Went in entirely blind and enjoyed every second. Ignore the rotten tomatoes reviews, this movie is fun

CGI blood was a big negative. Nic Cage and Nicholas Hoult did a great job.
ADArturo DExtremely gory, not funny. Maybe a couple laughs throughout the whole movie.
AMArchie Mathis9.5/10

Only downside was the plot felt strange
MTMichele TheobaldPretty amusing. All the exploding blood was over the top. Loved Renfield!
WWwava wavaNice first time seeing a movie alone. The film was good!

Hoult, playing a pallid, anxious, disconcertingly dreamy Renfield, and Cage, fully Cageing it up as the count, manage to be compelling even when vamping (sorry) with all their might to make this material work.

Renfield is goofy, with fantastic action sequences and a few comedic beats that land, but it could have also been so much more.

Before this frightfest chokes on its own relentlessly repetitive blood-splatter, Nicolas Cage proves fiercely funny as a modern-age Dracula whose malignant narcissism sends his errand boy Renfield (a soulful Nicholas Hoult) into therapy for co-dependency.
