Genre: Short, Horror, Comedy
Duration: 2 min
Rating: 5.9
Cast: Nadia Salnick, Grant Munro

Considered by film buffs to be Canada's most elaborate . . .

. . . picture of All-Time, ASHES OF DOOM provides America's provincial Northern Neighbor's spin on the Dracula Saga. Granted, what passes for Art in the backwaters of Ghana, Guam, Guyana, Greenland, Mongolia and Canada won't necessarily pass muster in Tinsel Town, even by boon-dock standards. ASHES OF DOOM may be seen by some as a plunger short of a plumber's kit. Perhaps the best-loved foreign Dracula, Germany's NOSFERATU, had 36 total cast and crew credits, with a running time of 94 minutes. On the other hand, ASHES OF DOOM boasts 48 total cast and crew--33% more than NOSFERATU--but merely a 2-minute elapsed time--which is less than 3% as long as the German favorite. Furthermore, the opening credits for ASHES OF DOOM drag on for a mind-boggling 52 seconds, which is nearly HALF of it's total length!
