Z wyspy na Karaibach przypływa do Nowego Jorku tajemniczy statek. Na jego pokładzie znajduje się Maximillian - pół człowiek, pół wampir, spadkobierca legendarnego Nosferatu. Podobnie jak słynny przodek przybiera różne postaci i cechuje się okrucieństwem. Towarzyszy mu wierny sługa, wampir Julius Jones. Maximillian chce odnaleźć Ritę Verder, z którą łączą go więzy krwi. Nieświadoma tego pokrewieństwa kobieta jest detektywem w nowojorskiej policji. Maximillian próbuje się do niej zbliżyć jako kaznodzieja Pauly, a potem uwodzicielski Guido. (Metro)

If I hadn't recently seen Drag Me to Hell, I would have been (slightly) more forgiving toward Craven's film. But the confrontation of both films reveals all the misery of Craven's work. While Raimi can skillfully balance on the edge of pure horror and smart comedy with plenty of self-parodic elements at the same time, practically avoiding all genre clichés, brimming with ideas, and even incorporating elements of social criticism into his film, Craven offers only all-round boredom, grayness, and awkwardness. The film doesn't scare, even though blood splatters everywhere and a torn heart still beats in the palm of your hand, and it doesn't entertain, even though the actors diligently pretend and Murphy does what he can. You don't see films this impotent very often... The director, dialogue writer, and actors even destroy the promising scene when the villain pretends to be a priest and blesses evil in front of the eagerly excited members of the religious community... Overall impression 15%.

Neither comedy nor horror, and in every scene obvious proof that Wes Craven made his worst bet ever. But when I see how seriously Eddie Murphy is taking everything, I don't have the heart to give it the lowest rating. Maybe the most boring film I have ever seen.
