Count Dracula, a review by GSyren


TitleCount Dracula (5-014503-248628)
DirectorPhilip Saville
ActorsLouis Jourdan, Frank Finlay, Susan Penhaligon, Judi Bowker, Jack Shepherd
Produced1977 in United Kingdom
Runtime150 minutes
AudioEnglish Dolby Digital Mono
SubtitlesEnglish
OverviewIn this eerie, erotic and highly acclaimed adaptation of Bram Stoker's horror classic, Louis Jourdan brings a subtle menace and dark sensuality to his memorable portrayal of Count Dracula. One of the most faithful screen versions ever of the original novel, the story begins with Jonathan Harker visiting the Count in Transylvania to help with preparations to move to England. It is in the Count's castle that Jonathan becomes a prisoner and discovers Dracula's true nature. After Dracula makes his way to England, Harker becomes involved in an effort to track down and destroy the Count, eventually chasing the vampire back to his castle.

A true gothic classic, 'Count Dracula'  contains many scenes shot on location - such as London's Highgate Cemetery and Whitby Abbey - adding extra atmosphere to an already powerful production.
My thoughtsam so much better.

To sum up, not a total waste of time, but - for me, at least - nowhere near the ultimate Dracula.
My rating3 out of 5

Nadja, a review by goodguy


   Nadja (1994)-

Cover blurb:

I know too little about the genre, but it seems that in the '90s, vampire movies entered the arthouse cinema, and some even in glorious black and white. The best known is probably Abel Ferrara's The Addiction, a philosophical meditation with then indie icon Lili Taylor as the lead.
