Dracula Lives#4(1974)

Louis Belski screens his big come back film "The Fangs of Dracula" for McCrudder the producer of the film. However McCrudder is less than enthusiastic about the aging actors poor performance as Count Dracula. McCrudder tells Belski that his film is being canned and mockingly tells him that he might sell it overseas to an unfriendly nation. Thinking that he is more talented than he appears, the embittered Belski begins to drink his sorrows away unaware that the real Dracula has recently arrived in Hollywood. Completely drunk, Belski gets in the middle of a fight between McCrudder and his girlfriend and assistant Liza. When McCrudder tries to rough up Belski, the drunken actor somehow manages to over power him and throw him against a wall. The impact kills him, and pushes Belski over the edge. Thinking that he is really Dracula, Louis attempts to feed on Liza and then flees back to his dressing room. Louis is then confronted by the real Dracula who mocks the man who has dared to imitate him. Thinking that Dracula is really a replacement actor, Louis pulls out a gun and attempts to kill the vampire king, but is shocked when the bullets have no effect. Dracula's mocking laughter drives Louis more insane and he hides out on the studio lot. Two weeks later after the police have failed to find Belski, and the studio has been closed up, it is visited by Liza and her new man, Sammy. When the two try to have a romantic interlude, they find one of Liza's colleagues dead. Fleeing in fear, Liza runs into Belski who once more thinks that he is Dracula and attempts to feed upon her again. The real Dracula reappears, disgusted by this performance and throws the pathetic actor aside and feeds upon Liza himself. When an indignant Belski gets to his feet and attempts to attack Dracula again, the king of the vampires uses his hypnotic gaze and make him submit, Belski is reduced to a blubbering coward before Dracula kills him as well. Later at the city morgue, Sammy identifies the bodies of Belski and Liza. As he leaves with the coroner, the two rise as vampires and attack the two men.
