Synopsis

An out of work lothario, Julian Marsh (Hoffman), scores a break as the director of an off-Broadway play.

A perfect combination of low-brow humor and high-brow aesthetics, this comedy/horror film follows an eccentric cast of characters to explain the connection between Hamlet, the Holy Grail, and some very sexy vampires.
