WNU-TOOB: THE DRACULA OF EARTH PRIME-TIME

"THE DARK PRINCE" POST-SCRIPT (OR IS IT POST-CRYPT?)




BUFFY VS. DRACULA TRAILER





For Earth Prime-Time, the main Toobworld, the true Dracula is represented by the character as played by Rudolf Martin. The actor played the pre-vampire Impaler in "Dark Prince" TV-movie, and the Vampire King in an episode of 'Buffy The Vampire Slayer'.

(The Dracula of Earth Prime-Time may have created a soul-clone of his own in the pilot episode of 'Moonlight' or was using an alias; I saw it, but it wasn't very memorable. Rudolf Martin also appeared as Dracula in archival footage from a Russian movie entitled "Night Watch".)

For more information on the Dracula of the Wold Newton Universe, please visit Win Scott Eckert's excellent site, which you'll find linked to the left. And hopefully you'll also pick up his two-volume book "Crossovers", now available.

BCnU!
