Synopsis for I... Vampire!: "Back in the U.S.S.R.!"
Andrew Bennett and Deborah Dancer track Dmitri Mishkin down to Moscow, where they believe he has been kidnapped. At the airport they are detained by the KGB, who try to murder them with solar-powered vampire-killing guns. Bennett defeats his captors and uses mesmerism to interrogate them for information. This leads him to investigate their boss, a Col. Yuri Rashnikov. Rashnikov's trail leads them to a vampire research compound protected by were-beasts. Rashnikov explains that they are slowly replacing the Russian high command with vampires, using a powder that removes vampire bloodlust and weaknesses. While Rashnikov is distracted, the Blood Red Moon storm the compound led by Dunya Mishkin using assault weapons. Bennett and Deborah escape only to get cornered by were-beasts. Dmitri arrives to kill the beasts and save his friends, revealing that he too has been turned into a vampire.
