TL;DR Summary

"Renfield" features Nicolas Cage as Dracula in a splatterific action film that lacks mystery, poetry, and grandeur. The movie is a scattershot lark jam-packed with "ideas," none of which really take hold. The hypomanic violence of "Renfield," even as it will help sell the movie, detracts from what the movie is.
