This movie took the idea of Bram Stoker's Dracula and combined it with an outer space horror story very similar to Ridley Scott's 1979 Alien. Of the eight characters in the movie, only Dracula, Van Helsing, Mina, and Holmwood are from the original novel, and none of them maintain any of their original relationships. His crew consists of Vice Captain Aurora Ash (Erika Eleniak), burnout drug addict 187 (Coolio), Arthur "the Professor" Holmwood (Grant Swanby), muscle-man Humvee (Tommy "Tiny" Lister), and navigations intern Mina Murry (Alexandra Kamp-Groeneveld).

  • This movie took the idea of Bram Stoker's Dracula and combined it with an outer space horror story very similar to Ridley Scott's 1979 Alien. Of the eight characters in the movie, only Dracula, Van Helsing, Mina, and Holmwood are from the original novel, and none of them maintain any of their original relationships. The movie opens to a video log of Captain Varna (Udo Kier) of the cargo ship Demeter. He holds a crucifix and is speaking of an impending doom as an A.I. in the background is counting down to self destruct. Before the count reaches zero, Captain Varna cries out and the video feed flashes off. It is then fifty years later, and Captain Abraham Van Helsing (Casper Van Dien) of Mother III, a deep space salvage ship, begins to speak of heading to a derelict ship that has been lost for many years. He and his crew of six dock at the Demeter in hopes of taking it back to Earth where they will salvage it for credits. His crew consists of Vice Captain Aurora Ash (Erika Eleniak), burnout drug addict 187 (Coolio), Arthur "the Professor" Holmwood (Grant Swanby), muscle-man Humvee (Tommy "Tiny" Lister), and navigations intern Mina Murry (Alexandra Kamp-Groeneveld). It is found out that the ship had made birth from the planet Transylvania in the Carpathian System, and that it was meant to transport a load of coffins to Earth. When Van Helsing's ship, Mother III, is mysteriously seperates from the Demeter, leaving them stranded on an unknown ship. In trying to find out more about the ship they are stranded on, 187 cuts himself openning one of the coffins and awakens Count Dracula, also known as Orlock (Langley Kirkwood) in this adaptation. Orlock systematically turns all but Humvee and Aurora into vampires. The Demeter is en route to a nearby sun when a video log of Captain Varna bleeps on to explain that he has a duty to Earth to make sure that the ship does not make it back. After this video clicks off, the Demeter blows up and the credits role.
