So. It kinda didn't follow the book. Which I was upset about because the book is brilliant. And I'm a nerd. Should have been called "Francis Ford Coppola's Dracula."Highly sexualized to the point that I had to turn down the volume during some parts because I didn't want people to think I was watching a really high budget blood fetish film.Anthony Hopkins completely stole the show. Absolutely perfect. All the blood was fun too.

Dracula has some hairy hands. Wonder what he's doing now that Elisabetta is gone.

The first time I saw this movie I was so lost....ADHD did not mix....so I watched it again and followed every single lline word for word and found it okay..then I watched it the third and saw all things I missed-little details and then I watched it over and over and over till I actually stretch the VHS and itb couldn't play anymore! lol
I love the cast, the staging, costumes, and the whole feel of this movie! I never realized that was what's his name from speed....I don't think his acting however has improved much since. I always seem to enjoy most of the movies he is and charactors, but he seems lke a "new" just out of acting school actor. Is it just me or does any one else agree? http://www.myspace.com/tinagghrbr

i think it was ment to be over the top like a lot of the classic horror movies were. it's still pretty good. i think that's part of what drew people to movies in the early days. you want to be caught upin something that is much more fantastical than your life and the drama does that.
