The King of Darkness will be back in a new origins tale, and according to Bloody Disgusting , the project will include all the key staples that made the original Dracula tales unforgettable ... all but garlic. “Oh, you’ve got to have teeth,” Alex Proyas said. “I mean, the teeth are really important. I think Frank Langella in the ‘Dracula’ movie that was made in the 70s, I think he didn’t want to have teeth in the movie. But, no, I like the teeth. I want to see girls with a lot of teeth.” One thing that seems to be out of the equation though is the intense allergic reaction to garlic as Proyas always felt that particular piece of vampire mythology was “kind of weird.” However the director remained coy on whether the infamous transformation into a Bat will be included in the movie. “’Dracula: Year Zero’ is sort of the origin tale that mixes [the historical] Prince Vlad of Transylvania with sort of [fictionalized] Bram Stoker [take],” Proyas said.
