We can’t say that this is the most convincing on-screen vampire death, but it has to be the funniest
The 1988 Anthony Hickox-directed horror comedy, Waxwork, has achieved cult status with a combination of a crazy plot involving some classic monsters – a werewolf, Dracula and a mummy – and all-or-nothing performances from some genuinely iconic actors of the time.
It also has some brilliantly absurd moments, such as this fantastic Dracula death, shared by Storyboard Artist and Illustrator Heidi Neunhoffer.

No bats were harmed in the making of that clip …and if you thought they were, we have a bridge to sell you.

Watched this weekend and had to rewind this scene back. Too funny, wild movie. Like an extended goosebumps episode https://t.co/PGWYxBTxGx

Imagine being vampire – an unholy creature of the night – and this is how you go out. Absolutely embarrassing. https://t.co/TCSNWJxjCy

I loved this movie. It was such a guilty pleasure to watch. Horrible all around, loved every minute of it.

there's probably a load of vampire safety regulations that came in after this one poor fool got his bat head blown off https://t.co/vChU0a7pIX

Although we didn’t believe it could happen, Kimo Linder-Fattah‘s minor adjustment made it even better.
This is great, I don't think I've seen Waxwork, which is a shame as I enjoy these kinds of movies. Now on my list. I made a single tweak to this becuase I thought it was missing something, aka Matt Berry yelling "BAT!" as he transforms into a bat in What we do in the shadows pic.twitter.com/KZOtKOAcfG
