| Creative LoafingMatt BrunsonIt's a good effort by all, even if it does fall short of complete success. |
| User ReviewSean SMinulle ainoa oikea Kreivi Dracula on kaikesta huolimatta juuri Christopher Lee. Katsottuani näitä teini-iässtä telkusta pelkäsin kaikenlaista rapinaa puskissa. Vieläkin näen vampyyripainajaisia silloin tällöin ja ne unet tulevat juuri näistä leffoista. hrrrrrrr |
| User ReviewPavandeep SNot Franco's best in my own subjective opinion but I could be wrong, it could be his greatest. The narrative was all over the place and there were a lot of striking, funky shots, looking into camera and the roles just suited fine for each character, like Christopher Lee in particular. Very different from the other Dracula movies by Herzog, Murnau and Coppola, which is good since they all differ too. |
| User ReviewNicole GI love vampires so I have to have old Dracula movies. They're a lot better than new movies! |
| User ReviewPatrick GI love the black and white silent movies!!!! |
| User ReviewDavid HI have seen so much Dracula Movies that i don't had the Wish to see another One but i seen in the TV Guide there is one aired directed by Jess Franco and i watchted him because im a Die-Hard Jess Franco Worshiper and i don't regret it a Very Unorthodox Dracula Film with innovative Shots, a Atmospheric Aura, a stronly aberrant Story (Van Helsing is the Head of Department of a Psychatry), A Hillarious Performance of Klaus Kinski as Silent Insane & Maria Rohm is damn Seductive |
| User ReviewGianluca PAs for the other Franco's features, it's terribly slow. But it's the nearest to book Dracula's movie I've ever seen. |
| User ReviewMelique cthe very first vampire movie I ever saw as a kid...on film no less one night at camp. Scared me a lil... but I found myself rooting for dracula ever since and I always will. Dated now, but a classic to me! Vampires rule! |
| User ReviewPaul BClassic and faithful adaptation of the Stoker novel with a great performance by Lee as the titular character with an excellently eerie & climactic ending |
| User ReviewPaavo IA gorgeous, gorgeous film with gorgeous, gorgeous people and plenty of unintentionally hilarious scenes. This film has one of the best soundtracks in the history of cinema, mainly thanks to the mesmerising metallic guitar sound that echoes almost like an out-of-tune cembalo or kantele. |
