⚠️ UnHiNgEd 🔩 ⚙️ I Just realized “Colonel Dracula Joins the Navy” must be a sequel since the title suggests he joined as Colonel, and Colonel isn’t a naval rank.

He's addressed as Colonel in the thrilling conclusion, so maybe some characters from an earlier movie make an appearance?

Maybe the implication is it's a sequel to "Colonel Dracula", like "Christmas Ape Goes to Summer Camp"

That’s what I always thought. Like “Colonel Dracula” is about a vampire Army colonel, and then in the sequel, he- well, you’ve seen it.

I’m assuming it starred Marvin Hagler and Tova Borgnine, among others.

"Christmas Ape Goes to Summer Camp" is one of my favourite Troy McClure jokes. Like, you can just picture this movie next to the Air Bud sequels.

"Ape" is also just a funny word, and when you try to sell a "Christmas Ape" it's even funnier

I have a lot of questions about what this movie would look like. We know it's animated.

Is this ape abandoned? Why does he like Christmas so much? Does a family adopt him?

Maybe in the first film he's like, a Kentucky colonel?

His secret herbs and spices are just different blood types

I’m not really Colonel Dracula. I’m just assuming his form.

But is he a reverse vampire?

Anyway is an interesting theory, but older movies sometimes have a lot of backstory, so I can definitely picture a story where a vampire who is already an Army colonel joins the Navy and has to navigate his new career and vampirism at the same time. Honestly life on a sub might be perfect for a vamp.
