That's just what happens in this lightning-fast laugh-out-loud 90-minute gender-bending romp. When her sister Mina falls ill with a mysterious disease of the blood Lucy Westfeldt and her fiancé Jonathan Harker enlist the help of famed female vampire hunter Doctor Jean Van Helsing.

Five actors play over a dozen roles in this bloodcurdlingly hilarious send-up of the literary classic. |
