Daughter dies on father's chest; his outcry is so genuine that a shiver went down on my spine. The best Dracula movie ever.
He had no choice
Best Dracula movie ever? FFC isn't impressed. However, she was yet dead before 😂
AGREED! SIR Laurence Olivier .. one of the greatest actors to walk the earth.
I seen this movie when i was 4 years old and this scene has remained with me as a terrifying core memory for 43 years.
Same here
yup me too
Same I still get goosebumps and slightly cover my face when this scene comes on
Dude, my grandfather put this on for me when I was like 6. This scene scared the friggin tar outta me. I still walk around going "Papa...papa.." 🤣🤣
Me too!!!!
Im a fan of many Dracula movies , this was always one of my favorite adaptations. Acting is off the charts.
i dont like langela as dracula ,but this movie is amazing have a lot of great things
What's the name of that movie I want to watch it🎯
Dracula
1979 starring Frank Langella.
When u have thespians like Langella, Olivier & Pleasance, it's not hard to achieve.
I have to say, this scene has a unique charm. Horrifying, heartbreaking, gothic, terrifying.
Very well written, directed and played.
Powerful scene.. Scared the stuff out of me in 1979. It was shocking and I obsessed over it during the summer. "Mina?!"
"Papa?!"
what "stuff", exactly?
I cried actually, when i saw the movie, I was 8 years old. So sad and painful
Watched that on holiday when I was nine years old. Scarred me for life (in a good way). Loved horror ever since.
Not suprised, this would be very intense for a 9 year old, I thought goosebumps was scary at that age....
Oh, me too. I watched it in TV with my mom in 1982.😩
Because of this movie I was afraid of vampires until I was 12 years old.
I came here to say the same thing, but I was about 5. I was afraid to watch that scene again until I was like 14, and a fan of horror movies.
Saw this in 84 at seven years old. Traumatized me, just now seeing again at 46 to get over the fear LOL
Beat scene from any Dracula film ever made ,Laurence really played this to well because I felt the pain of his lost.
2:49
Lucy: "Kom met mij. We moeten samen rusten, Papa.
Translation: "Come with me. We must rest together, Papa."
2:56
Van Helsing: "Laat me! Laat me met rust!"
Translation: "Leave me! Leave me alone!"
Ok thanks
*Mina
is it dutch?
@@mroosie7488yes, it is Dutch
As a 80's kid this scene along with the Salem's Lot window scene kept me up for months, just like a good horror film should.
Saw Salem's Lot on tv, it scared the crap out of me
I loved interview. Very much. But the best vampires on screen? They weren’t pretty. They weren’t cool. They weren’t heroes. The best ones were monsters. Come to eat you while you sleep.
❤❤❤ Salem's lot that's a good one I hate windows being open and rocking chairs till this day
Salem's Lot..."Look at me..." 🧛♀
Just like most in here, I 1st saw this scene as a kid in the 80s & have had this scene burned into my brain.
The greatest scene from any Dracula movie yet made. Devastating and moving. Olivier is off the chart. Great and underrated film.
Any movie with Donald Pleasance deserves a watch.
Not really. There was a lot of trash films in his filmography as well
2:22 oooooh thats SICK how she reflects in the water - such a creepy visual! It breaks the rules of vampires not reflecting in mirrors slightly but i dont mind it what a great shot
It's because the cross landed in the water. Turning it to holy water.
@@kristenslice561 It may be actually the opposite, I read somewhere that it was not a vampire's characteristic to not have a reflections, instead it was the silver's, and since back then mirrors apparently had silver in them, that is why they couldn't be reflected, but it being a puddle of water, not even running water, it had no problems reflecting her.
I watched this movie as a child and she scared the crap out of me, then I cried when her father cried after killing her. It's one of those bitter sweet moments.
I love Coppola’s movie for its sumptuous visuals, but this version always works better for me as a more horror-driven movie. Even with the romantic elements, it’s still moody and gothic.
I watched this movie as a child, but these scene I never forgot. The tension, the loss of the cross, the image of Mina in the water...
It's scary but also sad, a father see a daughter die twice.
The agony 😢
Me too. And yet, as a vampire, the water shouldn't reflect her...
@@pabloassante5360Only Mirrors in this universe.
@@Demarcusken Yes, apparently. I was watching the remake of Fright Night, and their immage doesn't even get caught by cameras there...
Suspension of disbelief.@@pabloassante5360
This is the one scene from this movie I somehow managed to watch at around 9 or 10 years of age. I've never forgotten it after 40 years. On an old 80's TV is was terrifying.
It's funny how Langella's Dracula was so compelling and convincing, but never really frightening.
Yet this actress playing Mina remains one of the most graphic interpretations in the genre I've ever seen.
The scene between her and Larry Oliver is, at once, pure terror then incredible sadness.
I can't think of any other scene in any other movie where such a sudden mix of emotions is performed so brilliantly.
The Father crying over his daughter after having to kill her tears my heart up every time 🥺😭 such brilliant acting 👏🏻
I just stumbled across these ..from what I seen..I like it so far..I'm going watch the whole movie and give my feed back ..
Yes it's incredible acting from Olivier theatrical
This scene scared the crap out of me as a kid.
This is the scene that makes you hate Dracula & root for Van Helsing. Perfection in both execution and acting.
I've watched 100's of Dracula/vampire movies, & none has ever chilled my blood, or scared the crap out of me like her turned as a vampire scene. Those eyes!! Damn. And I saw this movie in 1980, but, in 2024 - still makes me clench.
Frank Langella is one of the most underrated Dracula's ever, so is this entire film.
I say "one of" because Duncan Regehr's Dracula from The Monster Squad is the most underrated of all time.
My favorite Dracula film of all time. It was so elegantly done and true to the time period.
The most human Dracula yet with the most monstrous effects on those around him
This part always scared me when I was younger!
I am not from your timeline i was born in 2004 but vampires were creepier in the old times but they weren't bad in underworld series and Van Helsing 2004
I felt so sorry for poor Mina. She looked so sad here and she looked horrible. I mean, her skin was feeling blood coming out of her eyes.
Yo I'm 49 now and saw this when I was in 1st or 2nd grade. Still can't forget this scene lmaooo
I'm so used to see beautiful vampires like in Interview with the vampire (my favorite of this genre) that this presentation for me is straight terror
Feels more what a reanimated corpse that drinks blood would look like. Vampires these days read more like the fae who sleep in coffins for aesthetics.
Most terrifying version of Mina/Lucy ever. Nightmare fuel for decades.
I was too young to see this at the cinema in '79 (Iwas 10) so didn't see it until it was premiered on tv back in the early 80's. Atmospheric, beautifully shot, great cast and John Williams' music score.
When the owl hoots, Doc Holly... Doc Seward takes another cross. For sure, for sure. Essential John Woo.
Perfect scene ✨💎✨💎✨
Saw this MASTERPIECE on CBS NIGHT at the MOVIES. 4or 5 years old. First Dracula movie I ever saw.
Same here; I think. I remember that it played on a Friday in the mid-'80s (maybe even the early '80s).
@@emmapeel38yes. It was on Sunday night at the movies and Friday night. CBS would air movie or on Saturday night's as well.
Just give me 1931, 1958, and 1979 versions of Dracula. Oh yes and the original Nosferatu I'm good with these.😊
This is what vampires should look like. I just don't understand why they swapped the characters and their relationships around.
They didn’t have permission/rights from the Stoker family so had to make these types of changes to avoid copyright suits.
@@sachmo3 The novel entered the public domain in 1962, so copyright wouldn't have been an issue.
@@richardlahan7068 My apologies. I honestly had heard that was the reason years ago. After some basic googling, I see you are correct.
@sachmo3 You may be thinking about "Nosferatu" from 1922. There was a lawsuit against the production company by Stoker's estate for that movie.
Yeah I hate those Buffy-style vampires that look like comical monsters, and also vampires with no visible pointed teeth. Nosferatu gets a pass though because he was creepy as heck.
Wonderful setup...the reflection, then the slow pan up to that face...
2:48 thats awesome! What an interpretation of what a vampire might look like its really creepy
This scene is a juxtapositioning of both terrifying and tragic.
As a dad, It would be bad enough to see your loving child in a state like that. But I cannot fathom the pain of having to do such a thing as he had to
Just like Blade when he had to kill his mother when it was revealed that she had been turned by Deacon Frost😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
superb acting all round, Laurence breaks my heart every time here
I love how they touch on the psychological horror of vampirism. Imagine having to "kill" your loved one, whose already dead, but whose also trying to kill you and using your bond to bait you. It's traumatic.
Esta ecena la vi cuando tenia 13 años y fue la mas espeluznante que vivio en mi mente y me daba miedo ahora la recuerdo y que gran maquillaje si lugar a dudas exelente
Eu tinha 12 anos . Muito medo dessa cena.guardei a vida inteira .até hoje da medo.
What a great scene !!!!!!!! They knew how to make good movies
This scene still freaks me out,so well done,amazing movie and cast!
I actually didn't like this movie very much, but this was a well done scene. Still not sure why Lucy was renamed as Mina and changed to being the daughter of Van Helsing.
They just didn't want to copy Dracula book over and over again. It's just different approach.
@@stevemuzak8526 When was the book faithfully adapted tho? All the movies have done their own approach.
@@cheloxmv To be honest I don't really care about faithful adaptation. All I want to see is something good and unique.
@@cheloxmv I swear it's never been properly adapted. I want to see just one proper adaptation before I die. 😭
@@cheloxmv I think the Louis Jourdan version is the most faithful - there's a UA-cam video comparing the different versions re this question
Stephen King was very fond of this scene.
El mejor Drácula. Y esta la mejor escena.
todo esto de los ghouls debajo del cementerio es de lovecraft,,,esta lurking fear y hemoglobina,...
Poor father 🥺
Tremendous acting from Sir Lawrence Olivier 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
This scene freaks me out her look is so ghastly horrific but in a good way
I was 5 or younger. I recorded it on VHS and watch this scene on repeated, pausing, trying to draw her... With much sh****er quality but still FANTASTIC!!! And now as a soon to be 35 yo graduate with Play and screen writing, watching it in HD... I think it's EVEN MORE PHENOMENAL!!! 😱🤯🤪🥴🤩
Plus... Mina is the Bulgarian word for mine so in Bulgarian it sounds like "Mine is in the mine"... 🤣
Highly scary and painfully emotional scene beautifully filmed.
The first Vampire I really ever knew was " Bela Lugosi " and I became a Vampire fan ever since then , this movie was really good and I really enjoyed watching it !! 👍👍
Scariest scene of the movie
Watched this as a kid. I made so many crosses from ice lolly sticks!
Terrifying. Then heartbreaking. Brilliant movie!
One of the best !!
Interesting how reflection of a vampire appears on the water but never in the mirror. 🤔
Fave Dracula film ever.
Pretty much everything in this except Dracula himself was scary.
I haven't seen this since I was a kid I didn't realize Donald Pleasance was in this.
OMG! I'm as scared as when i was little. It's my first movie with Dracula
Best Dracula ever!
This is 1 of 2 movies in history where Van Hellsing is correctly depicted as being Dutch 🇳🇱
Omg scariest moment of my childhood
She scared the stuffing out of me....great make up job here!
The contacts and fangs were fine but the makeup itself was very crude
@@Valkonnen looked good to me.
@@gailwebb9619 You MUST have seen good makeup before. Haven't you? I've created special effects makeup since 1989 and we always strive for good work.
@@Valkonnen And this movie is from 1979 and I thought the special effects were good. Of course things have improved since then.
@@gailwebb9619 No, we use the identical materials and techniques that we used then. This is just a regular makeup person attempting "special effects makeup" and doing a bad job.
I can’t believe I saw this when I was eight years old. This terrified me.
I was little kid when i saw this movie
Until now i see again this scene!
Just amazing!
SAW it in theater at 8yo. SIR Laurence Olivier.. hands down TIE BEST Van Helsing with Peter Cushing. "Papa"..still creeps me out.
Saw this in the theatre as a boy of 9 . Terrified me. Didnt stop me from going back and seeing it again though. Lol
2:44 Всегда на этом моменте мурашки по коже.
Very perfect scene
I saw this when I was about eight. I had nightmares on my bike broad daylight. And, still couldn’t get enough.
I've been looking for this scene for decades, to remind me of the trauma I went through as a kid :D
My word…2 giants of the stage,pleasance and Olivier,very very hard to top that.
“I have no daughter!”
(tears his shirt)
😆
Haha, Jazz Singer.
Fiddler
1992 version made more sense imo bc vampires need to be able to look human, for infiltration. "The greatest strength of the vampire is that no one will believe in him."
I feel sorry for Lucy, she always ends up being a vampire like in every Dracula story and movie
No, she doesn't. Only when they switch names.
@@str.77 I meant Lucy she ends up a vampire in every Dracula Movie, except this one because they switched Lucy’s name to mina
@@gerardorodriguez7500 They not only switched the names in this one.
And what is "I meat Lucy" supposed to mean?
@@str.77 in Hammers Horror of Dracula, Lucy becomes jonathan harker’s fiancé
@@str.77 you know who’s Dracula 🧛♂️, everyone knows who he is
The most ghoulish scene in the whole movie. And Van Helsing's heart must have broken to kill his own daughter, haunting him for the rest of his life. Which turned out to be rather short then, when he fought Dracula. First movie, in which almost the whole Van Helsing family got eradicated. Maybe already a generation's old fight against vampires, as he seems to possess some good experience "I underestimated your power to walk by daylight" I guess he didn't get his knowledge how to identify and fight vampires from a simple tutorial script. To me it looks rather like a family tradition, So finally Van Helsing's own death kinda relieved him from living on with the knowledge, that his end-opponent had robbed him of what he most loved. Why looks Mina like that? Remember Dracula in the first dinner; "I like women alive. And full of blood." Dracula identified Mina as a weak person, far from the mental strength he found in Lucy. So Mina was not that alive in his eyes. He could fed of her and then kind of skip her. She was no match for him, the less a longtime companion in immortality. Mina obviously died by being "sucked dry by him" and turned into a vampire after she died. There is a theory in vampire lore, that somebody to be turned willingly has to get a certain amount of vampire blood to fully turn to full "vampire glory and strength". Dracula turned her with such a minimum of blood, that she would simply die and come back as a weak creature, barely able to sustain herself, the less to rise to full power. He might already have found out at the dinner or before in the cave, where he took shelter after the ship wreckage. Dracula's eyes and heart were for Lucy from the beginning. As Lucy was this strong and awake, intelligent and mindful woman he fell in love with and wanted to spent his eternity with. Poor MIna was in a vampire's cruel point of view " a can (of blood)-tear open-drink and drop." Thru more than five centuries of his existence there must have been thousands of female and male victims, he just fed on to soothe his hunger and urge. Beside; to me it looks very strangewhen parents let their kids of age 4 or 6 yo watch a vampire movie, that makes pretty clear in the trailer, that this is no kid stuff like "The little Vampire". In my country were wide spread discussion if youngsters can watch "Hammer vampire movies" at age twelve, the less at age 4. I was 16 yo when Dracula by John Badham came into the movie theaters and I watched it.
I wish the rest of the film was as brilliant as this scene is
Beautiful
I saw this when I was nine years old. Was absolutely terrified for weeks after. I highly recommend it.
I like this movie...
It wasn't cartoons i would eagerly await Saturday mornings, it was the local station horror movie host, Dr. Paul Bearer 😂😂❤ the Hammer movies were and still are my favorite.
Wow! Donald Pleasence from Halloween!
Classic scene 😎🤟
Donald Pleasance was in this movie?
Yeah. At first the producers wanted him as Van Helsing. However, Donald played a similar character like him in the Halloween movies.
I stabbed her five times I stabbed her five times I STABBED HER FIVE TIMES
Mina escaped from her grave
This may be the only Dracula adaptation where Mina becomes a vampire and dies while Lucy lives.
In Werner Herzog's "Nosferatu" Remake from 1979 the names are switched too ... although in that version both of them die - Mina first and Lucy in the end.
This is the most hideous Mina anything ever created for a film....
Cool ending
Cena emocionante...sempre que revejo, choro. 😢
❤
Yeah, yeah ANOTHER John Williams complete score I missed out on, DAMN IT!
I watch this last night 🌙
Saw this in the theater. When Mina appeared the audience was in shock.
I saw this movie as a child. This scene haunts me till today.
It's funny how as kids we could have seen it scary because of the scary appearance, but as adults that loses some power, but the scene also becomes scarier as we understand better the horrible situation of Van Hellsing having to kill his daughter.
@@powerincarnate6783 Its still scary AF!
@@christianjosephkarner Yeah, it still is super creepy.
Freaked me out as a kid. I bought the movie on dvd and watch it from time to time.
My favorite of all DRACULA movies,Frank Langella was perfect as the Count, even though the story was changed alot from the book from Bram Stoker it was very well done and it still holds up well today, it's also my mom's favorite and Frank can bite her on the neck any day from what she says!
これは初めて見ました。スゴくゾッとする恐ろしく素晴らしい作品ですね❗️
Such a heartbreaking scene.💔
