When I was a teen, I found a rhinestone monogram pin at Goodwill with the initials "KFC" and I considered, briefly, legally changing my name to Kentucky Fried Chicken.

DEAFULA is by far, the strangest adaptation of Bram Stoker's vampire novel ever! The entire film is in sign language. It rarely plays. When I saw the film at the Museum of Modern Art, the entire audience was dead silent. All I could think was the film-maker's intent. They felt, deaf people need to enjoy movies more, and what's more enjoyable than a vampire movie? Was the above review useful to you?

I can understand some of the mistakes. Visually the movie is shot in black and white giving this picture a classic look. For a fist time film, I have to give this picture a 10 for sheer attempt at something new, since this is the first film ever shot in american sign. The film from I understand is in the New York Film Institute. They reconized this picture as do most of the hearing-impaired culture as the first film in american sign, try to find a copy at SignScopePictures.com, I heard that a 30th annivesary ed. will be comming out later this year or next year.

Other IMDB users waste their breath on insults, but I dare you to find a better example of: *a toddler tearing the throat out of a puppy. *a policeman flapping his arms like a bird *hippies stabbing priests *hunchbacks with tin cans for hands *a tiny troll-like policeman that rightfully makes a mockery of all the people of England. ...If you can't enjoy this movie, you are not a human being. I loved Deafula! This movie was made for Deafies, not the hearing. They do not and cannot understand us! I would rather watch this film (our deaf community film) than any captioned hearing movie. It's old, but for us ... it's a classic. If the hearing don't understand us, they shouldn't discriminate against us with their mocking. The Deaf look at the world in a different way and they should not be ashamed of it. Watching Deafula always makes me feel good, like I belong. When I watch hearing movies, I always feel like I am an outsider watching the hearing world from a distance. I know my Deaf friends feel the same way. True Deaf Classic ... for Deafies Only!!

(Report this) Surely among the worst vampire films of all time, "Deafula" is of interest mostly as a curio, the first-ever film made for a deaf audience in sign language. Positively dreadful in every way(albeit very watchable for all the wrong reasons), it could only be legitimately enjoyable to an audience both deaf AND blind. The 'story' concerns Deafula, the son of the legendary Dracula(a pretty creepy looking aquiline-featured fellow), at large in urban America. At one point in the movie, a biker and his "broad" are directed by supernatural force to drive over a cliff...when they did, I rather envied them. Their pain was over. Plunging over a cliff beats sitting through 'Deafula' by a long shot. Couldn't subtitles or title cards have been just as effective for this project?
