I am going to be brutally honest here. I couldnt get through the first one. I bought it. I tried to like it....it just wasn't my cup of tea. :'(
Good luck on the second one fellas. I hope you get your funding and wish you well.
Anton, honesty is always appreciated. In fact, since you are the type of fan they are looking to target, it would be really helpful if you perhaps sent the filmmakers an email, or left comments on their Facebook pages. They are planning things out, now. Their hope is to raise enough to shoot "Tales of Dracula" 2 & 3, back-to-back. That way, they can release part 2 in 2017, and part 3 in 2018. They want to make each one better than the last.

I have to agree with your review, Phibes. I watched the entire movie, and while there were elements I liked, I rather yearned for a bit more progress with the storyline and a bit more action. A wonderful try, though, and I hope the second one gets made. I'll end up donating.

Hey everyone, this is an update as to what's been going on the last couple of weeks.
We've been working on backstory, developing plot devices, to really move Tales of Dracula Part 2 : Wolfman Vs Dracula along.
We have had several phone conversations with individuals who provided reviews of the first Tales of Dracula, discussing some of the obstacles and hiccups we had, and we really enjoyed talking with these folks and we are reviewing the feedback to correct said issues from the previous film.
We realize that with Tales of Dracula 2, we need to seriously up our game by incorporating controlled environments, filming completely on a sound stage, and building all sets (no live locations) along with an editing and audio booth (for ADR), so that the final production on this film will be 1,000% better.
We will be bringing in a much larger crew, including expanding our makeup and art department, as well as having a wardrobe, second camera, AD, a lighting team. If we meet a certain budget level, we want to include a wire team, and a fight choreographer as well.
So many things will be happening over the next few weeks, and we'll try to keep as much information flowing as possible.
We have some amazing new developments happening right now, and it will greatly change the mood and feel of the next film and possibly bring out a ton of nostalgia for the classic film fans.
We can not stress it enough at how excited we are!
Please, PLEASE, stay tuned over the next week or two, and share this message with friends, family and fans of classic horror films the world over!
You will not be disappointed.
Sincerely,
Wolfbain Productions
Over the years as a film and book fan - or even student - I've discovered only a few things about my tastes: (1) I often don't have any clue on what I like or don't like - "the heart loves what it loves" and as soon as I come up with a rule, I discover umpteen exceptions to that rule so ultimately I fall back on the pile of excuses: "I have no idea why I like what I like."
But (2), in the world of Good vs. Bad, I derive satisfaction when the Bad Guy is really bad, AND he is defeated in a way suitable for his villainy. If he's been brutal, then he meets a brutal demise - it seems that I have a 'need' to see the villainy defeated in an eye-for-an-eye concept or worse. Eyes for an eye, even!
For example, if the villain has massacred and slaughtered, then a hangman's noose or a single bullet's demise is sooo unsatisfactory. "They shoulda boiled him in oil like he did his victims-! And horse-dragged him to the caldron for a few miles, first!"
In some productions, the Good isn't that far separated from the Bad but still the Good seems to need to be heroic at some level, Good at some level, admirable, honorable.

Pardon my ignorance, but what's this about? Are they trying to say that 2 iconic monsters have never before faced off in a feature?

No, I think they're saying that these two particular monsters have never faced off before. I'm guessing they aren't including 1948's "Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein," because that was a spoof.

Throwing vases in full retreat wasn't exactly one of Dracula's signature moves, either. ::)

The TALES OF DRACULA 2 & 3 Funding Site is a work in progress!
WE WANT YOUR FEEDBACK! Let us know what perks you like (or don't like) and what new perks you'd like to help fund the film. Please reply to this note on our FB page!
Things you should know: 1) We are raising funds for BOTH Tales of Dracula 2 & 3 -- not just the second film. 2) The amount we're asking for ($150k) would fully fund both films (though we may make a go with less). 3) If we can exceed our goals, we may do a Special Edition of ToD 1, to bring it up to the quality of the sequels. 4) If we don't get enough money to make the films, we'll give your money back!
Of course, the real goal is to make 2 GREAT SEQUELS! We decided to try this on our own, rather than use a funding site, because we wanted to: 1) raise funds for a full 6 months, 2) avoid fees so we can put all the money into the films, and 3) refund the money if we don't make our minimum goals.
So, TELL US WHAT YOU WANT! Help us make TALES OF DRACULA 2 & 3 the best they can be!

I made my first donation to the cause. Hope to add to that as time goes on. I REALLY want to see these happen. I hope the next movies have a bit more of the monsters featured in them too!

Director Joe DeMuro told me that certain scenes had to be dropped because of time limits at the locations they shot at. With a larger budget that would allow for the building of sets, rather the use of locations, they hope to have more control over the whole production process. They also hope to shoot both sequel films at once, so that actor availability won't be an issue, either.

I really hope this happens. I have been adding money as I can to the cause. The first film held so much promise that is would be a shame to end the story here.

The goal is to raise enough money to shoot parts 2 & 3 simultaneously. This would allow them to shoot all of Donnie Dunagan and Janet Ann Gallow's scenes at once, for both films. As both are in good health, but aren't getting any younger, this is the most practical plan.
It would be a shame if this opportunity to reunite Peter Frankenstein and Cloestine Huffmann with The Monster were lost. I do know there's a Plan B if fundraising goals aren't met, but it would involve delaying production on "Tales of Dracula 2 & 3" for at least another year, possibly two.
The best way to help, other than donating, is to share their Indiegogo page on social media. If you have Twitter or Facebook, please share the link. Any other Monster forums you might be in, please share the link. The more people who are aware of the project, the better their chances of meeting their goals.
