Dracula Movies: Blacula Films
William Marshall stars as Prince Mamuwalde in this blaxploitation reimagining of the Dracula legend. Cursed by Dracula himself in the 18th century and awakened in 1970s Los Angeles, Mamuwalde becomes a tragic romantic figure seeking his reincarnated love while battling his vampiric nature.
The two-film series blends Gothic horror with soul music, Afrocentric themes, and contemporary urban settings. Marshall's dignified, Shakespearean performance elevates the material beyond exploitation, creating a legitimate addition to vampire cinema.
