The film follows Dracula and his son-in-law Johnny as they travel to South America to locate a crystal that can reverse a transformation spell before its effects become permanent.

Originally scheduled for theatrical release in the United States on October 1, 2021, the film’s release was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Sony Pictures sold distribution rights to Amazon Studios for $100 million. The film was released on Amazon Prime Video on January 14, 2022, and received mixed reviews from critics. A fifth film is in development.
