Summary
Everybody's favorite vampire is having a birthday, and it's a biggie: Count Dracula is turning the big 4-0-0. And although 400 isn't old for a healthy, eternal, Night Creature like the Count, the women in his life - his wife, teenage daughter and mother-in-law - are each giving him a different reason to dread the occasion. Plus, his friend and physician, Dr. Z, suspects that Dracula's mid-life crisis is all in his mind. But the Count is convinced that his decline is real, if only because these days he can't even get to sleep unless he's in an orthopedic coffin. This smart, silly spoof celebrates the Dracula legend in a surprise party of laughs for cast and audience alike.
