- SynopsisHorror with martial arts action. In 1804, Count Dracula travels to the Chinese village of Ping Kuei to resuscitate seven Chinese vampires. A century later, Van Helsing's son leads an expedition to wipe out the vampires. Along for the ride are Leyland Van Helsing (grandson to the original Van Helsing), Vanessa Buren - a wealthy Scandinavian lady who yearns for excitement and is happy to finance the long expedition on condition that she join in, and a group of seven Chinese fighters - each with their specialised skill and choice of weaponary. The group take on a group of bandits, and, as they near the village, they come up against Dracula's evil minions and finally the Count himself. (Synopsis)
