Review: Renfield
Get ready, because there’s yet another new take on Dracula. But no need to brace yourself, because Renfield feels surprisingly fresh.
Nicholas Hoult (The Menu) is the tortured title character and loyal servant to the Count, played by Nicolas Cage, who’s vamping it up with his singular brand of unhinged glee. Renfield leans right into the campy, homoerotic side of things; instead of leaving the hapless lunatic gibbering in an asylum, this Dracula took Renfield into high society and even gave him a taste of his power and strength as his familiar.
