Desc: The Impaler: A Biographical/Historical Look at the Life of Vlad the Impaler, Widely Known as Dracula: Directed by George Angelescu. With George Angelescu, Garth Collins VoiceofGarth. Vlad the Impaler - the true story of Dracula is not a flashy Hollywood production, which may disappoint some of the viewers. But, if you want a logical, clear, historically accurate perspective on the man that was deemed to become the Master of the Undead, and more lastingly, Count Dracula, then this documentary is for you. Do watch this documentary. Vlad the Impaler - the true story of Dracula depicts historical reality. The film explores the temporal course of Vlad's life, documenting his world as objective reality. It shows the house Vlad was born in - still standing high in its pride, today; the ruins of the Court Town of Tirgoviste - where Vlad lived in three separate times, reigning over Vallachia; the medieval Castle of Hunedoara - the only Transylvanian Castle that ever connected Vlad to Transylvania; and most importantly documents Vlad had signed as Ruler of the Independent Principality of Vallachia. Where does this film leave the history of Dracula? Where it belongs, in fiction. Where does it leave Dracula's Castle - Disneyland perhaps, a fairy tale, a great tourist attraction? However, one thing is certain. George Angelescu (An-gel- es'-coo), the Romanian-born Canadian filmmaker, the producer and author of the film, gives Vlad the Impaler - back, his real ID, and not that of the Hollywood version of Dracula.
