This is downright weak compared to Dracula and Dracula's Daughter, if only for the nonsensical casting of Chaney Jr. But on the other hand, Louise Allbritton is interesting as the undead bride, and the combination of the Dracula mythos with the plantations of the American South lays the groundwork for a future offshoot of the genre, which, along with the Anne Rice universe, is the world of Charlaine Harris and her "The Southern Vampire Mysteries" / "The Sookie Stackhouse Novels."

Yes, it's trash, but at least it's not shot like trash. In addition, I'm probably one of the few who liked Lon Chaney in the lead role because his acting was so ambiguous, until one wondered if this Alucard (oh, what a cunning pseudonym, I met him in Dracula in 72') will really be negative through and through, or if things will be different in the end. I think it was different in the end, because the film can also be seen as a very tragic, upside down romance starring a vampire and his bride, who were not supported by American plantation owners. Whether that's how the creators intended it is another matter.

The American film Son of Dracula rode the wave of sequels that were filmed quite extensively in the 1940s. Their quality was declining compared to the 1930s, which is evident in the poor script and the odd title. Lon Chaney Jr. is a legend, but even he couldn't bring anything extra to this movie because there wasn't much to bring. The only thing that would surprise me is if it would be bloody or gory. Neither happened.
