Bad Boy Ya Come

The most erotic Dracula, I have seen.

Alyssa manages to do what few actresses have accomplished--Played the sex pot and the innocent at the same time. We are given the impression that although she gets naked enough and has sex a lot, that somehow it is not really her fault, although most of the time she seems eager or curious--up to a point.

The photography also manages to also capture kinkyness, sleaze, and horror all at the same time.

It is the story of "O" for the hOrror set. Although technically not as skilled as Copolla's Dracula, it is a lot more sensual and scary.
