A mysterious Netflix movie has popped up on our radar courtesy of this week’s official MPA listings. It’s titled The Count, and at this time we don’t know a single thing about the project.
Actually, that’s not quite true. What we do know about Netflix’s The Count is that it was just handed an “R” rating, and the MPA listing strongly suggests it’s a horror movie.
Netflix film The Count has been rated “R” for…
“Strong violence and gore, some graphic nudity, rape, language and sexual content.”
With “strong violence and gore,” it seems fairly safe to assume that we’re dealing with a horror project here, but again we must note that this week’s MPA listing is the first time we’ve heard a single peep about this mysterious movie. And we’ve done a good bit of digging this week, which has turned up absolutely nothing that would provide us with any information.
We’re left to wildly speculate on this one, with the film’s title being our only clue. The Count sure sounds like the title of some kind of Dracula adaptation, does it not? Bram Stoker’s horror icon is pretty popular at the moment, with last year’s Dracula-based The Invitation now streaming on Netflix. And The Last Voyage of the Demeter is headed to theaters in August, based on a single chapter in Stoker’s novel. And let’s not forget Universal’s horror-comedy Renfield, which just hit Blu-ray this week and introduces Nicolas Cage as Count Dracula.
Is Netflix getting set to unleash a new Dracula movie of their own? Or are we wildly off base? We’ll continue to do more digging on Netflix film The Count, which is sure to be revealed soon.
Stay tuned…
