Blacula

I have never seen this movie. This summery is quoted from The Vampire Book: The Encyclopedia of the Undead.

"Blacula told the story of Prince Mamuwalde, an African leader in 1780 who was trying to find a way to stop the slave trade which haunted Africa's west coast. He sout out Count Dracula... to obtain his assistance in the endeavor. Dracula merely laughed at the Prince, who with his wife, Luva, started to leave. Beofre they could get away, however, they were attacked by Dracula and his vampire cohorts. Mamuwald was vamperized and sealed in a tomb. Luva was left to die of starvation, unable to help her husband...Blacula...The story then switched to 1965 when some Americans purhased the furnishings of Castle Dracula and shipped them to Los Angeles, unaware that the ornate coffin the had obtained housed Blacula's body. Blacula was awakened and discovered a new love, Tina, the exact image of his Luva. As the plot progressed, she fell victim to a shooting incident, and he turned her into a vampire to save her. But then she was staked to death, and in his grief Blacula committed suicide by walking into the sunlight."
