From the very first moments of the trailer for El Conde, Pablo Larraín's latest film

From the very first moments of the trailer for El Conde, Pablo Larraín's latest film sinks its teeth in. The Jackie, Spencer, and Lisey's Story director is back with a rambunctious dark comedy satire about a restless vampire who grows weary of immortality after centuries of stalking the Earth.

Augusto Pinochet (famed Chilean actor Jaime Vadell) is a 250-year-old vampire who lives in a crumbling mansion with his equally spoilt and corrupt family. He can't shake his lasting — and earned — reputation as a thief in life, so he decides to die. For good. But while he puts his affairs in order, a young French accountant (Paula Luchsinger) will offer up some truths about his life as a General.

Written by Larraín and Guillermo Calderón as inspired by Chilean history, El Conde sees Pinochet as symbol of a fascism, a dictator greedily furthering his privileged immortality by feeding on others for sustenance.

The cast also includes Gloria Münchmeyer, Alfredo Castro, Catalina Guerra, Marcial Tagle, Amparo Noguera, Diego Muñoz, and Antonia Zegers.

El Conde is streaming on Netflix from Sept. 15.
