10 Best ‘Dead And I Know It’ Moments In Recent Horror Movies

There are a whole bunch of 'saw it coming' kills dotted across Renfield, but the one that gets the nod here is the death of a character simply referred to as Older Priest in the film's credits. The reason for this one getting spotlighted? Why, that's because Older Priest is played by genre fave William Ragsdale, best known for playing Charley Brewster in the first two Fright Night movies.

Ragsdale's character is one of many killed during the first half of Renfield, and his demise stands as one of the more memorable and unique deaths. Knowing he's doomed, Older Priest berates the eponymous Renfield for the blood spilled by Dracula being on his hands. And with that, Nicolas Cage's vamp turns into dust and enters Older Priest's mouth, causing him to explode from the inside and be reduced to itty-bitty pieces - all as a shocked, conflicted Renfield looks on.

Far from your usual vampire bite or general draining of blood, this death could well be the most memorable of the entire picture... which says a lot for a film that features somewhere in the region of 150 kills!
