The idea for "To Die For" came out of executive producer Greg H. Sims love of the Dracula legend and the many Dracula films, and his long-standing desire to do a contemporary and romantic version of Bram Stokers classic characters. Sims brought in writer Leslie King, who has previously penned a screenplay under the tutelage of Francis Ford Coppola, to realize his concept. Screenplay in place, Sims and his Arrowhead Productions formed a partnership with executive Lee Caplin and producer Barin Kumar. Dean Sarafian ("The Falling") was then brought to direct. With the assistance of casting director Linda Francis ("crimes of Passion),a top-notch cast was assembled featuring Birtish actor Brendan Hughes ("Stranded", "Return to Horror High"); Sydney Walsh (TVs "Hooperman"); Amanda Wyss ("A Nightmare on Elm Street"); Emmy-winner Scott Jacoby; Micah Grant, Steve Bond ("General Hospital"); and Duane Jones ("Night of the Living Dead"), in his last film. The score for "To Die For" was composed by Cliff Eidelman. The films theme song was co-written by Stacy Widelitz, who wrote the song "Shes Like the Wind" from the box-office smash "Dirty Dancing." "To Die For" was filmed entirely in Los Angeles, including a full fledged castle in Malibu serving as Vlads home.
