Hi Patti, I re-watched this movie a few months ago, and I think it's meant to be sometime in the 19th century. I think the coffin that was robbed actually had dates from the 17th-18th centuries on it. The movie is meant to be a direct sequel and continuation of Dracula, Prince of Darkness (really a much better movie IMO), at the end of which [spoiler]Dracula, who is supposed to have a traditional aversion to running water, is trapped under ice in the moat outside his own castle.[/spoiler]
There are a number of "rules" given about vampirism in this one that don't apply in the other ones--the most egregious is the notion that somebody has to say prayers when a vampire is destroyed, or else it doesn't work. Huh?
Best, G.
