You said who every actor was at the end that you recognized, and people still tell you who they are 😂
People don't always watch my full review at the end 😅
This has to be my favorite portrayal of Dracula. Acting is top notch 👍
@@Centane I do ! Frankenstein with de Niro is awesome ! The Story of Frankenstein really runs deep...
@@Ezekielepharcelis Surprisingly, this version follows the book more closely than all of them I have seen.
@@Centane I think you missed one famous actor. Gary Oldman was Dracula. And Keanu Reeves has been in a ton of other things and easily the biggest star in the movie. Next famous would be Oldman and Anthony Hopkins.
I love this movie. Oldman is so amazing as Vlad.The score is truly incredible and one of the few done by the composer. There are very, very, VERY few digital effects, the only ones being the green smoke, but all the rest of these effects are entirely practical in camera effects. And truly, the combination of everything just a doomed romance film. I just love it so much.
One of my favourite scores.
Is there movie where Oldman isn't amazing? Yea, this movie is great, and when I was young, I was lucky enough to see it under the influence of the shrooms - and that was really another level.
Oldman doesn`t get enough praise for all his fine work its a real shame.
Even much of the green smoke is practical as well. They used the same fog machine techniques as in John Carpenter's "The Fog," but this time they ran some of the footage backwards to give it an unearthly look.
And the morph from old to young Dracula in the last scene...people always forget that one, for some reason. Obviously that's digital.
Arthur Holmwood was played by Cary Elwes, who was Westley in _The Princess Bride_ .
He really added that hint of aristocracy to this flick, but Anthony Hopkins stole the show! As usual....lol
A great adaptation of a classic gothic horror tale. So well done. Gary Oldman is impeccable.
Gary Oldman is also great in Leon, another cult classic.
@@DanABA Oldman is just great in anything you just dont know its him half the time chameleon of an actor.
Drexl in True Romance, Stansfield in Leon or as far out as Zorg in The Fifth Element he can turn toilet paper into gold.
This movie is a masterpiece. Dracula be looking like the love child of Emperor Palpatine
The costume designer Eiko Ishioka on this movie was so amazing! Her design for Dracula's armor is so fantastic.
Her work on the movie 'The Cell' is equally amazing. Such a vibe
It's a pleasure seeing someone truly enjoy this movie. It's one of my favorites, and it's nice to see someone else appreciate it for what it is, instead of tear it down like the critics.
This is the best kind of movie. Critics hated it (57 on Metacritic), but the audience loved it (8.3). Sometimes directors know better than critics, and I think this classic director captured the spirit of Dracula, even if critics didn't like the complete transformation of his appearance. I think if they'd gone with the generic Dracula look, this movie wouldn't even be talked about today. They took a chance, and it paid off. The make-up effects in this movie are incredible and still hold up today.
So many hidden gems in this movie. Anthony Hopkins also playing a priest at the beginning. The rat being Dracula kissing Mina's foot while leaving. Dracula sorting from his coffin like in the Nosferatu film, the "i don't drink wine" line from Tod Browning Dracula, etc.
Probablu the best vampire movie with interview with the vampire
I love her commentary. She let's the movie breath without interrupting every 2 seconds and great facial expressions lol.
Lucy is usually portrayed as wild and a bit lusty, leading on several suitors and such. but it's rarely captured that she was unusually authentically kind and charming to everyone around her. So much so that her three suitors became as close as brothers long before she said yes to one,
Leading on several suitors is impossible. The whole point is to get married. Those were chaperoned parties where she's supposed to decide on a husband. Back then, if a girl wasn't engaged before she's 21 she's considered an 'old maid'.
Also while a bit thirsty Lucy was at heart an innocent. Most movies never get that. Her manner was like a child pretending to be grown up more than that of an actual "wanton" woman.
The nudity and sexuality is very integral to the character and story of Dracula. It is very much about lust, temptation, primal desires. It is not a children's fairytale
If it wasn't mentioned already Francis Ford Coppola decided against using modern special effects, instead opting for traditional and sometimes antiquated techniques. His son Roman Coppola was 2nd unit and special effects director for the film. The use of such effects was an inspired choice, as it fits the gothic nature of the film. The only digital shot was the burning blue fire at the gates of Dracula's castle. All other effects were shot in camera. The scene of the diary, with the train and pair of mysterious eyes, I find to be especially powerful. This is the rare film that holds up to the test of time.
Winona Ryder was originally set to appear in "The Godfather 3" but had to bow out due to illness. The film was meant to be a television series, before Ms.Ryder brought Francis Ford Coppola the script. Thank god, because television wasn't what it is today. Her and Gary Oldman were famously at odds throughout filming, and that may have had a lot to do with Gary Oldman struggling with alcohol addiction at the time. Happily, Keanu Reaves and Winona Ryder were filmed being married in a Greek orthodox church by a real Orthodox priest, and Winona Ryder has stated that Keanu is still technically her husband.
A remarkable masterpiece and a true expression of artistic talent.
I really enjoyed this reaction. I feel it’s more entertaining to see someone who is really into a film & not talking versus someone talking all the time, but not all that focused on the movie..
🤍
I agree Golden Age. Facial expressions communicate so much anyway. I become frustrated when reactors talk so much, and I know they’re missing chunks of important info. Centane is a nice change.
Bela Lugosi, Sir Christopher Lee & Gary Oldman all brought their own unique style to Dracula.
This adaptation / interpretation of the story is easily the most visually stunning.
I live not far from Whitby in Yorkshire, which has a very special connection to the story.
Bram Stoker visited Whitby in July 1890 & was working on a new story, set in Styria in Austria, with a central character called Count Wampyr.
The favoured Gothic literature of the period was set in foreign lands full of eerie castles, convents and caves. Whitby’s windswept headland, the dramatic abbey ruins, a church surrounded by swooping bats, and a long association with jet - a semi-precious stone used in mourning jewellery - gave a homegrown taste of such thrilling horrors.
High above Whitby, and dominating the whole town, stands Whitby Abbey, the ruin of a once-great Benedictine monastery, founded in the 11th century. The medieval abbey stands on the site of a much earlier monastery, founded in 657 by an Anglian princess, Hild, who became its first abbess. In Dracula, Stoker has Mina Murray - the young woman whose experiences form the thread of the novel - record in her diary.
Below the abbey stands the ancient parish church of St Mary, perched on East Cliff, which is reached by a climb of 199 steps. Stoker would have seen how time and the weather had gnawed at the graves, some of them teetering precariously on the eroding cliff edge. Some headstones stood over empty graves, marking seafaring occupants whose bodies had been lost on distant voyages. He noted down inscriptions and names for later use, including ‘Swales’, the name he used for Dracula’s first victim in Whitby.
On 8 August 1890, Stoker walked down to what was known as the Coffee House End of the Quay and entered the public library. It was there that he found a book published in 1820, recording the experiences of a British consul in Bucharest, William Wilkinson, in the principalities of Wallachia and Moldavia (now in Romania).
Wilkinson’s history mentioned a 15th-century prince called Vlad Tepes who was said to have impaled his enemies on wooden stakes. He was known as Dracula - the ‘son of the dragon’.
While staying in Whitby, Stoker would have heard of the shipwreck five years earlier of a Russian vessel called the Dmitry, from Narva. This ran aground on Tate Hill Sands below East Cliff, carrying a cargo of silver sand. With a slightly rearranged name, this became the Demeter from Varna that carries Dracula to Whitby with a cargo of silver sand and boxes of earth.
So, although Stoker was to spend six more years on his novel before it was published, researching the landscapes and customs of Transylvania, the name of his villain and some of the novel’s most dramatic scenes were inspired by his holiday in Whitby. The innocent tourists, the picturesque harbour, the abbey ruins, the windswept churchyard and the salty tales he heard from Whitby seafarers - all became ingredients in the novel.
In 1897 Dracula was published. It had an unpromising start as a play called The Undead, in which Stoker hoped Henry Irving would take the lead role. But after a test performance, Irving said he never wanted to see it again. For the character of Dracula, Stoker retained Irving’s aristocratic bearing and histrionic acting style, but he redrafted the play as a novel told in the form of letters, diaries, newspaper cuttings and entries in the ship’s log of the Demeter.
The log charts the gradual disappearance of the entire crew during the journey to Whitby, until only the captain is left, tied to the wheel, as the ship runs aground below East Cliff on 8 August - the date that marked Stoker’s discovery of the name ‘Dracula’ in Whitby library. A ‘large dog’ bounds from the wreck and runs up the 199 steps to the church, and from this moment, things begin to go horribly wrong.
Dracula had arrived …
Every year in Whitby there is a Dracula weekend, along with the incredible Whitby Goth Festival
I am envisioning a Goth-style Burning Man. But rainier.
@@alanholck7995 It’s held in April, so it’s usually not too bad….but you can never be too sure!!Think fewer influencers & a lot more black clothing 😂😂😂
Many thanks for sharing this!
@@pseudohacker you are welcome!!
Wow thank you for this! Stoker's novel is one of my favorite classics, so this history is fascinating to me.
The book is way better, you’ll love it
Regarding the nudity and sexuality in this story: it is very purposeful. It is the essence of the Dracula character (and vampires over all). They symbolize lust,addiction,seduction and sin in general. But also love, passion and rush.
Same as werewolves symbolize primal instinct, anger and the loose of control but also freedom,sex and our ties to nature.
They are all told, as monsters, from a christian perspective, that is why their salvation can only come from turning back to god.
The freedom that we have with art like this, is to see all those trades not only as something bad but as something very human and as an intricate part of the human experience.
That is also why Dracula is often portrayed as someone who embraces art and science instead of blind faith.
100% True
I think it was thrown in to showcase his decline into depravity. His heart turned to darkness after he lost his wife. Over the years, he falls into every type of sin there is and does the work of the devil. Unfortunately, to many humans - especially Americans - sex is one of the greatest evils. So those scenes made sense. He went from a noble, faithful husband to an evil, depraved monster. To Christians, endless sex with multiple partners is right up there with the biggest sins. They really did a great job of conveying his spiral into evil and then showing that it's never too late to ask God for peace. He finally accepts his wife's fate and then his own and dies in peace, even after everything he'd done during his living death. What I got out of it is that salvation doesn't just require God to forgive us but for us to forgive God as well. It's not God that's angry. It's us. The line "Your war with God is over" is powerful because it highlights that it's not God who's ever been against him, but it's him who turned against God. When he finally stops fighting, God brings the light back and gives him a peaceful death in the arms of the person he loved.
it is also a fact that it was Bram Stoker who introduced the concept of the Vampire as a lustful being and or using lust and sexuality as a lure for prey etc.
until then, they were mostly the horror tales of mythology,
he was the one that introduced the concept of sexuality to the vampire genre as well as the basis for the modern genre itself.
See also Dracula in the animated Castlevania. He likes and respects his future wife because she's trying to be a legit science-minded doctor.
Luckily for you, this is still the most accurate adaptation of the book thus far. You'll love the book, I'm almost positive. Enjoy.
A LOT of people actually dislike the book and find it dull and disappointing. It's not a guarantee.
@@rustincohle2135 That's how I feel about this movie.
@@bradwiehn6448 I'm not a big fan of this movie either. I like how technically well made it is from a filmmaking perspective but that's about it.
No it isn't, the BBC miniseries from the late 70s/early 80s is the most accurate adaptation. This is a fun, trippy adaptation though.
@@TTM9691 1977, the most accurate but I prefer this one.
Believe me, your silent expressions speak plenty loud, and we love your reactions! Some reactors like to joke, talk, ignore half of any movie they watch, and have no idea what was going on in order to give their impression of the movie. You like to pay attention and understand a movie and we appreciate that.
It sucks that Quincy got it in the end but he went out like a boss. Great cast in a great movie! Awesome soundtrack too!
Keanu Reeves delivered a performance here that is so bad it’s almost unbelievable. Why didn’t the director tell him what he was doing? Was there anybody there on set who actually cared that this was being presented to an audience? It’s strange because in some way it’s a beautifully made film with world class set design and cinematography. Then there’s a high school amateur dramatics performance from the main character.
I had to ask my dad to go with me to the cinema as a kid when it came out.. Since then became one of my favourites and favourite soundtracks.. 30 years later its my wife s favourite movie and we have a daughter called mina.. 😁
Although I could appreciate Bram Stoker's Dracula for it's Comprehensiveness, Style and Effects I am not a fan of a crying and romantic Dracula. I actually grew up and biased to Christopher Lee's The Horror of Dracula. May I suggest you watch and react to it.
That actress IS Wynona Ryder!
Love her
30:39 ....."That actress look so much like Winona Ryder"..... I wonder why..... XDXDXD
An hour and a half into the movie: “that actress looks like Winona Ryder”.
I laughed pretty hard at that😂. A bit of a delayed realization but you got there
LMFAO i was busy with staring at Keanu 👀
The book is very interesting in its form, presented as letters back and forth between Jonathan and Mina. Jonathon does notice very strange things in his stay in Dracula 's castle but doesn't get frightened away. This seems unrealistic but Dracula has a very powerful and supernatural charismatic effect on people.
When this movie first hit theaters I thought it to be unintentional funny. The over acting was cringe worthy with a special nod to Keanu Reaves for worst British accent committed to film. I was further amused that the film was directed by Francis Ford Coppola, the same guy that directed The Godfather.
Great movie! You’re going to love the book. It’s definitely a classic novel. Frankenstein is another great read.
Always found this Dracula movie closest to the novel more than any other and that's why I think it's the best,
Plus Gary Oldman and Anthony Hopkins in a film together.
If you are into this kind of horror, then you will probably like Penny Dreadful. It is a 27-episode show about the classic horror characters like Dracula and Frankenstein. It brings all of them together in one comprehensive story
Had such a crap ending though. :(
@@JnEricsonx it wasn’t too bad. And the second season is one of the strongest in tv history. Worth watching for alone
I wish they called it bram stoker’s Batman….it’s obvious that Keanu is bram Wayne, whoa….I know right?!
A fantastic atmospheric film nearly ruined by Keanu Reeve's laughable ascent.
During the last century nudity in film simply wasn't considered a big deal.
One of the main reasons this particular Dracula movie has become so iconic is that this was the first one to incorporate the Vlad The Impaler origin story for Dracula. One of the main inspirations for Bram Stoker's original novel was a 15th Century Romanian prince named Vlad Dracul III, who waged war against the Ottoman Empire. His enemies would go on to call him Vlad Tepes, meaning Vlad The Impaler, because his favorite method of executing enemies of the state and criminals was impalement: driving a ten-foot tall stake through their ass and standing the stake upright to let the body slide down (trust me when I say that this is NOT a fast way to die. It is VERY slow, and VERY painful). But ever since this film came out, it has almost become a quintessential part of Dracula's "canon" lore that, when he was human, he was Vlad The Impaler.
Nope, this was not the film to first use the Vlad origin story, and not the first to portray the reincarnation love story between Dracula and Mina. That was done in the 1974 film "Bram Stoker's Dracula", starring Jack Palance and directed by Dan Curtis. Coppola bought the rights to the title for his film, and all the home releases of the 1974 movie that followed Coppola's version were retitled as "Dan Curtis' Dracula" or simply "Dracula". CBS took advantage of the successful release of Coppola's film and broadcast it on network TV two weeks later.
That's what made me care more about this Dracula version than the original. They showed that monsters weren't always monsters. There's still a human being still in there after 400 years, and I found that human part of him scarier than the real Dracula. The ending also implies that you can reject Christ for 400 years and still find peace if you eventually accept the human part of you again and reject the evil that took over. So that's comforting I guess.
Mild correction. The only thing stoker took from vlad the impaler was the name "Dracula" and the location. Prior to his Discovery of the wallachian warlord the count's working name was "Wampyr" and the story took place in Germany. But the story was much unchanged.
I was disappointed with this. They turned Dracula into a simp. And Keanu Reeves, his shortcomings as an actor really stood out with his terrible attempt at an English accent and when he had to act opposite of someone like Anthony Hopkins and Oldman. I expected him to say, "dude" or "excellent" after every line.
Young Vlad with those blue glasses is beautiful. He caused confusing feelings in young me. I'm straight but nobody is that straight.
Not gonna lie, as a fan of the book, I absolutely hated - HATED this movie for the way it handled the characters. I'll give it credit for being the rare, if not the only, adaptation to feature the cowboy Quincy Morris as an actual character, but that's about it.
BY FAR, this was the most intense and thoroughly enjoyable version of Bram Stoker's classic. Oldman's performance, unparalleled. Nice one, ma'am.
That's ridiculous, and I wonder if you've even seen all the adaptations. The BBC version from the late 70s/early 80s is the definitive version (and, by far, the closest to the book). This is a fun, over-the-top, throw-alot-of-money-at-it 90s production. It's a little overdone for my tastes. Calling it "Bram Stoker's" Dracula is misleading; it should have been called Francis Ford Coppola's Dracula because that's what it is, and that's what most people think of it as.
My stepfather collected books on the occult and supernatural; Dracula (among many others) was a bedtime story of my youth and fired an overactive imagination into serious bouts of night terrors. I kept on reading them anyway.
Guess by this comment I will be dating myself, but Salem's Lot was the first movie to scare the living crap out of me as a kid.
Gary Oldman is friggin amazing
"Listen to them... The children of the night. What sweet music they make." :)
I noted that SPIDERS creeped you out......Maybe you can watch " Arachnophobia " for the full effect....Happy Halloween.......* diabolical snickering*
There are some really great things about this film (the visuals) and some really bad, cringe-y things (Keanu's accent, to name one) so I have mixed feelings about this film. But I haven't watched your reaction to it yet, interested to see what you think. To me it's a 6/10 film, it's "ok."
You should read Mary Shelly's Frankenstein.
And Dracula himself is a wonderful Gary Oldman!
One thing I really appreciate about this movie is that, although the priest says that Elizaveta is damned for commiting suicide, in fact we as the audience know that she is not damned, she just gets reincarnated.
In this day and age we probably all know someone who has committed suicide, so it's just nice that the movie shows Elizaveta thriving in her next life, you know? Fuck that priest, or anyone who says that kind of shit when you're grieving.
I'm not sure if the same attitude is reflected in the book? It's been a long time since I read it.
If anyone has ever visited the English seaside town of Whitby (where this book was written) you'll understand exactly how Dracula can appear through mist and the overall creepy feeling you get walking through the town at night.
Just up the Rd from me
Yes, I think there’s a dogging site near there, nasty Brit’s!
And me! The Yorkshire coast is stunning
The true story of prince vlad is one of the most intriguing I’ve ever heard. History is often far mor fascinating than fiction.
I finally read Dracula. I bought a really old copy just to put me in the mood for it. I bought a copy that was printed in the 1920s. It’s really different reading because of the way it’s written.
Exactly. Calling it "Bram Stoker's Dracula" is highly misleading. it doesn't have the tone of the book (and, of course, makes changes from it, like all the others do). It's a 90s moneyfest: it's cool, it's trippy, it's fun.....it ain't "Bram Stoker's Dracula".
@@TTM9691 it’s pretty damn close though. It’s one of my favorite books and I think Coppola’s version is the closest.
@@jkhristian9603 The BBC miniseries from the 70s is, by far, the closest (and is great). Happy Coppola did this one though because after the hilariously laughable "Godfather Part 3", he needed something to rehabilitate his career! Definitely this was great on a big screen and it was able to supplant my previous Coppola movie theatre memory: a packed audience roaring with laughter at the end of "GF Part 3". Francis was back! It was a rock & roll Dracula!
@@TTM9691 I hear people say this often, but I hate how it combines major characters.
Have you read Frankenstein? It's amazing. I don't know how they ever got that weird green monster story from that book.
I remember I liked it when it came out, so I was 11, maybe 12 if I saw it on VHS. However I'm such more of a snob now I don't think I could handle these accents. I can barely get past Hemsworth's Thor accent. I realize it makes me an ass but I hear fake accents constantly now that I'm older. The most memorable moment in The Boys season 3 for me, seriously, was when Maive couldn't do scenes with Butcher without her real accent coming out. You can even hear it in the final edits.
One of the GOAT movies. The book is insane.
Your face when Lucy said "Oh Quincy, let me touch it"
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣LOL!! priceless reaction
Btw what did you think of Gary Oldman as Dracula?
You should really check out “Interview with a Vampire” with Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt and Antonio Banderas!!!!
Can u please also react to Dracula Untold and since u liked Bram Stokers Dracula i think Interview with the Vampire (with Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise) would be something u like.
Sry for my English in advance, its not my mother tongue.
Greetings from Europe, i really enjoy your reactions.
Regarding the sexuality and nudity ion this movie..... The book was percieved as extremely sexual back in the days whrn it was released,,,, In a way a mothern reader wouldn*t even think it was sexual....this was Coppolas way of handlling the sexual aspect in a movie for the modern audience
The nudity is part of a old formula violence+nudity=money, it's out of fashion except with alphabet community now. Appreciate your reaction including silent reaction.
Movie about Dracula and the scariest part is a spider. Seen like someone needs to watch Arachnophobia (1990)... ;)
It's still weird hearing Lydia Deetz and Ted "Theodore" Logan referred to as the actors from Stranger Things and John Wick. But, that's what happens when great actors have such long careers.
Amazing classic Bram Stoker's Dracula directed by Francis Ford Coppola starring Gary Oldman, Winona Ryder, Keanu Reeves, Anthony Hopkins and of course the music video of the song "Love Song for a Vampire" single by Annie Lennox. Thank you Centane great reaction awesome😎😎👍👍
This movie was a huge disappointment to me, when you read the actual book Dracula by Bram Stoker you will see why, the book is MUCH better.
When you are reduced to one word commentary like mhmm....you know the movie has you in literal shock! It was glorious to watch you, and I had to, because for much of the reaction, it was only your body language that could bee read. #lovely and amazingly silent 🤫 #Dracula #GOAT version!!
I finished reading Dracula for the first time a few weeks ago and thus instantly hated how inaccurate this movie was to the story and with how much it didn't include from the story. For instance, there is a whole chapter dedicated to his trip to London on that ship called Demeter, which is one of the best chapters in the book, that is rushed in the movie. Oh and my 125th anniversary edition of Bram Stokers Dracula is signed by Bram Stokers great grand nephew. :)
Never understood why people like this movie,turned Dracula into a wuss,there's no crying in Dracula.
You would like the movie "Interview With The Vampire" with Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt.😉
Ah the great Vlad III the great christian defender of Europe impaler of muslim invaders as a warning to not try ravage his lands further oh.....ye its bram stokers porn novel joking aside still one of the best vampire movies to date but far from the true vlad who was betrayed by his own brother now thats some heavy reading.
This is one of those movies if they made it now it wouldnt work they had the right cast at the right time and it fell together so perfectly, i would say great reaction but most of it caught you so off guard you did not get to react shows how engrossed you was watching it.
I love the movie, but if you're going to read the book it's very different. It's a horror book, Dracula doesn't love anyone, it's evil. And it doesn't have an origin either.
Well in the book Dracula is pure evil & is a metaphor for rape & syphilis, I really don't like how they made it into a romance.
Everything in this was done with practical effects on film (including the train scenes with eyes and such, which is insane...
You forgot the main character - Dracula, was played by Gary Oldman.
36:43
"-But Lucy... I'm british.
-So are these!"
:)
I don't think I've ever seen this movie. But it's you, so I'll watch it with you. I'm not going to know what happened in the parts you edit out. 😆
Your comments speak very highly of your character, Ma'am. A rare gem.
It's weird. I wanted her to be with Dracula the whole movie. I didn't care about Jonathan lol
I remember seeing this years ago' when Lucy was coming back to her coffin with a kid I said hey look she's got a happy meal.
Then my dad laugh as he called me a sick bastard' ah good times!
Not sure what movie to recommend you in the future maybe something both scary and funny at the same time' how about Killer Klowns From Outer Space, I bet you've never seen that one.
Just to also note they are coming out with a video game of it too' in 2023.
Loved your reaction darlin. This was a great and amazing movie you watched. But a movie I think you will love is "Event Horizon". It's not in the same category as the classical monsters. It's a futuristic movie with an amazing cast and special effects for the time frame.
II read the book and compared it to this version of Dracula. It's rare for a movie to be better than the book.
I know this film has it's problems (like Keanu's "acting") but it's actually one of my favorite versions of the Dracula story. Also, Gary Oldman is a GOD! ;-)
Dracula Untold is another good version of Dracula
30:37 "The actress looked so much like Winona Ryder..."
Go on, do the math. We'll wait 😂
It's always weird hearing kids nowadays only recognizing Winona because of Stranger Things and Keanu from John Wick.
another one that didnt watch my outro 😭
Facial expressions are very much part of a good reaction.
Vamp (1986)... different and good.
Thanks for the video!! See you later!! Stay safe.😊
You may get something of a shock when you read 'Dracula'. I remember when this film came out, 'The South Bank Show' in Britain did a segment on Coppola's myriad of influences for the movie. The reaction to Keanu Reeve's portrayal of Johnathan Harker was, em, 'quite marked', shall we say.
I love this movie. I did a stage play version of this movie in college. I played Renfield. It was fun.
The Love how direct Van Helsing is.
Bram Stoker wrote, got many influences for and was partly based in the English seaside town of Whitby in Yorkshire, England . He stayed at the Royal Crescent Hotel in Whitby between 1890 and 1896 during which time he wrote Dracula. There is a bench called The Bram Stoker Memorial Bench which overlooks Whitby and it has a plaque that reads 'The View From This Spot Inspired Bram Stoker (1847-1912) To Use Whitby As The Setting Of Part Of His World-Famous Novel DRACULA'
Whitby Abbey was also a major influence for the setting of Dracula in his book as the Abbey has many misty days which give a mysterious look to it.
Whitby is also famous for English explorer Captain James Cook who sailed his first ship The Endeavour from Whitby.
Whitby is also known for it's World Famous Fish n Chips which are said to be the best in the world.
Poor Jonathan! I was especially "concerned" for him when he encountered Vald's concubines in the spare bedroom, or whatever that was :)
Your facial expressions definitely speak for your silence. I love when your eyes widen. That says all we really need to know.
The open mouth and big eyes says a lot. No need for commentary sometimes
If I remember correctly they had someone from Japan design all of Dracula's clothes and they had no real reference to go off they didn't know anything about the mythology or the culture of Transylvania that's also why Dracula's clothes are very eastern looking.
Then they should have read Harker's description of Dracula in the book,completely clad in black.
I really appreciate the silence actually. Especially during the dramatic moments. That's what is needed more. I hate it when reactors talk over important moments.
Tom Waits as Renfield was probably the most interesting casting choice.
You should read the Dark Tower series by Stephen King. All his other books are connected to the Dark Tower series. Even Salems Lot characters are in the Dark Tower. It's Stephen King's Opus. It took him 40 yrs to write the series.
See me see me now,that’s my favourite bit lol
Great pick Cami for Halloween. It's one of my all time favorite vampire/ love stories.
" I have cross oceans of time to find you. " 🖤❤️🦇
Great movie. Glad you checked this one out. You should watch Dracula Dead & Loving It. A fun parody if this movie.
Kamilla is going to read Dracula and Salem's Lot? welcome to vampire literature.the reason for the counts strange shadow and the water dripping upward instead of down ,etc.was the director wanted to show Draculas evil even warped the laws of science and nature
Greatest version of Dracula ever
Keanu Reeves' attempt at a British accent is the most horrifying part of this movie
I'm glad you enjoyed the movie, it seems to be a "love it or hate it" type of movie.
Great choice Kami!
One of My Favs of this genre.
Now You have to watch: "Dracula: Dead and Loving It 🤣
It's a parody of this movie with the great Leslie Nielsen #RIP
It's so stupid in a funny way!
Now every time that I see this movie I can't help to link this 2 movies 🤦♂️
#HappyHalloween🎃
El título en español es aun más gracioso: «Drácula, muerto pero feliz». 😂
