I agree with you, Bram Stoker's Dracula is my favorite adaptation! I absolutely adore the addition of the Dracula/Mina love story and I think it brings much needed conflict and a very compelling love triangle to the England portion of the story which can at times be a bit of a slog. Gary Oldman is forever my favorite Dracula although I do love Bela Lugosi too!

I am so glad you loved it. I also loved this book so much and I have been searching for a book that is similar to it, as you described slasher with a hint of dark humor. I was wondering does anyone have any similar books that you would recommend, preferably slashers and not supernatural.

I just watched the Love Witch and I just loved the way they filmed it. Horror movies from that time period are my favorites. I love how they do the effects, camera work, acting all of it. So from the driving scene, I was instantly sold and so ready. I'm a big big fan of 60s/70s media and art styles, so this was a perfect modern movie for me. Great review on it!

great review :)

I thought the movie was terrible. I shut it off after 20 minutes. Bad acting, strong feminism, overbearing narcissistic attitudes. If the lead actress showed nudity in the first sex scene, it would have drawn you more into believing her character .. that no man could withstand or survive her sexuality. Initially the movie reminded me of "Under the Skin", where in both movies a beautiful, detached, other worldly woman seeks out males as objects to solely suit their purpose with tragic results.

❤❤❤❤ love Stephen king stuff picked up today can’t wait to read it👍👍👍

How they edit as 60’s cinematic film

I know the women who lives there

It should be called Francis Ford Coppola's Dracula. Yes, it's the second closest adaptation in terms of faithfulness, but it also has an equal amount of big changes. I love most of the adaptations and the original book. There's always going to be changes and I hope a future adaptation of the book will remain relatively faithful while also having unique take besides a Dracula & Mina or Lucy. 😀

I just watched the movie and loved it. I think i should read the book because i wish the movie was longer or a part 2. Thank you

I thought the movie made Constance more tempted to go back to Charles after the fire than in the book. This is a change I did not like.

liked the book, liked the movie both ok

1.5x thanks for the content appreciate the breakdown

Nice to meet you

Bazaar of Bad Dreams was a good read. Great haul marie

Nice to see more content from you, Marie!

Read Bag of Bones or Dolores Claiborne! Both are amazing and the movies are just as good! 💜

white walls tho..really?

To be honest, that movie was VERY faithful to the book, including keeping the setting (late 1950’s-early 1960’s). All of the cast gave great performances.

I hope you do a video on the susan hill woman in black book vs woman in black movie starring Daniel Redcliffe.

Found your video after reading Malorie in a day. I could not put it down! A little disappointed in the run up to the end, it seemed a bit dis-jointed. Id have liked to find out a bit more from this world, i need more explanations! Like Dean...i really liked his character. But on the whole, i really enjoyed it. Great review! ❤

I used to live across the street from her Love House :) a great movie! The effort put into the settings, like finding everything at vintage shops or making them is commendable!

I know what that's like! lol looking beautiful, Marie.

I liked the 1977 version with actor Louis Jordan as Dracula. This adaptation, despite its low budget and limited effects, is a good film. The film offers us a charming Count Dracula, who beneath his politeness, is a threat. The sarcasm and cynicism of the character played by Louis Jordan made him the best Dracula. The film avoids many romantic daydreams and shows a manipulative and threatening Dracula. He would be like the sirens who lure sailors with their beautiful song straight to their death. He may be handsome and seductive, but he is dangerous. It's his charm that makes him attractive that makes him so deadly. The film doesn't have the nonsense of showing that the heroine with the power of love will change the antagonist and the power of love regenerates. Dracula is the one who manipulates and he remains the same villain until the end. The merits of the 1992 film are aesthetic. They try to offer a kind of Greek tragedy, in which Dracula is a tragic hero. But he's just a murderous psychopath who sought the path of evil. Dracula may be a bit of Jeckyll and Hyde, he has a good side towards Mina and a perverse side towards the rest of humanity, this good side for Mina does not negate the fact that he is the villain. His evils make him impossible to redeem. The character, with his romantic tone, who crosses oceans to find an ordinary girl, seems more like the public's desire to find someone who can take him away from his ordinary, boring life. And he has people who go down that path and end up being manipulated by dangerous people. The author of the book doesn't want to go on romantic outbursts, he and his wife are middle class people who had to work hard to have a dignified life. They are more rational and realistic. And that is Mina and Jonathan's type of relationship. This was the prototype for the protagonists’ wedding.

Subscribe. Automatic subscription if you have bangs.

it has spooky femme fatale vibes lol

I love this movie. I did have to check the time it was made. I thought I was watching a remastered movie from the 60s or 70s. It felt like I was watching another amazing movie from the past. I love Barbarella and Suspiria. This movie is great.

He does commit suicide, though. The final shot shows that he never left his truck, and froze to death while it was covered in snow.

I enjoyed the book and the original black and white film over the Netflix series. Netflix relied too much on cheap jumpscares and totally removed the best element and shoehorned the people as a family. Even the 90's movie seemed more in tune with the original book and that was one of the worst adaptations,lol. I will say this for the Netflix movies, at least they had the same names as the original characters,lol.

Another great video Marie

I can totally relate to not having enough reading time Marie- it's lovely to see a new video from you again especially in the lead up to Halloween. 💕👻🎃🖤🤍 I still need to get to The Salt Grows Heavy.

So, did the Elaine character commit suicide after murdering Griff? The ending is ambiguous but there are subtle clues.

Awesome Wrap Up! Your bookshelf background is gorgeous. The Mad Women's Ball sounds very interesting and I love the cover. The only gothic horror I've really loved to this point is We Have Always Lived In The Castle, so creepy and unsettling. Nothing But Blackened Teeth is on my tbr. I really need to give Grady Hendrix a try.

I am Reading the witches of pendle by Yvette Firlding

The Quiet Stillness of Empty Houses sound right upy alley. I've heard ups and downs with both Nothing but Blackened Teeth and How to Sell a Haunted House. I'm glad I'm not the only one who yells at their reads when a character is doing something unwise.

My favourite line is that’s what she said lol 😂😂😂

Can you please recommend me some fantastic gothic horror books 📚

My favourite and number one beautiful lady is on looking forward to seeing this amazing woman in this fantastic video on her amazing channel prayers and blessings for you and your children love your number one Aussie family friend and subscriber John ❤❤❤when is your next book 📕 and I am 51 on Sunday getting really really old know 😂😂😂

Have missed you on tiktok, glad to see you here! :D

We read Mad Women's Ball for Patreon Book Club 2 months ago and thought it was interesting, but felt a little lacking, like half a novel...

Nice to see you again, Marie! Was just thinking about you recently and was rather concerned. Quite a relief to see this video today. 🖤 BTW, I sent you a friend request on Goodreads awhile back, since we've chatted on here for a few years. Haha Hope you're doing well, you're a lovely Irish lass, Ma'lady! 🇮🇪👍🤗

Good to see you back 😊 , hope you and family are doing well?. Have a spooky Halloween 🎃, take care
