Evil doesn't span eternity without a little help. In this modern monster tale of Dracula's loyal servant, Renfield is the tortured aide to history's most narcissistic boss, Dracula. Renfield is forced to procure his master's prey and do his every bidding, no matter how debased. But now, after centuries of servitude, Renfield is ready to see if there's a life outside the shadow of The Prince of Darkness. If only he can figure out how to end his codependency.
"Of all the monsters of cinema, Dracula is perhaps the most iconic and monolithic, with countless representations on screen. That's why Renfield: Vampire's Assistant is already refreshing just for the sake of telling a story focused on its namesake servant (Nicholas Hoult), who has been subjected to the vampire for decades and, in the 21st century, finally decides to break away from their abusive relationship. The premise is very funny, but the script veers off into crime thriller and superhero action with little consistency, so it ends up losing some of its charm. However, Nicolas Cage is simply phenomenal as Dracula and there are plenty of references to classic representations of the character. If you're a fan of monsters, the character or the actor, you'll definitely enjoy it. "
