Reception In 2017, author Bryan Senn wrote of the film: "Pathetic in all categories (even the pulchritude on display is spectacularly below-average), Dracula (The Dirty Old Man) will sorely try the patience (and fast-forward button) of anyone not already enamored of The Mummy and the Curse of the Jackals. And that's everyone."
In 2023, Brian Orndorf of Blu-ray.com wrote that, "it's a challenge to sit through [Dracula (The Dirty Old Man)], which doesn't offer considered comedy, just crude riffing from people with a limited imagination for humor." Orndorf concluded that the film is "best viewed as a curiosity from producers desperate to do something with a filmmaking plan that didn't work out."
