    It's a good film despite of the flaws. 7/10.

      Worse than Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. I found it visually offensive. Francis Ford Coppola went way too far over the top with it. Winona Ryder was dreadful.

        Actually I really liked this version of Dracula. Very strong performances from Noni and Gary Oldman!!

          I love the visuals: the set design, costume design, cinematography and special effects are solid. I also love the music.
          I find the rest of the movie a bit of a mess unfortunately: the script isn't that great, some of the casting is quite bad imo and some of the performances are too hammy. There's good ham and bad ham, I think Hopkins and Oldman are bad ham in this film.

            Yep, great score.
            And I like the whispering and voices that come in the background at certain moments, such as Dracula first speaking with Jonathan, or Lucy crawling back into her coffin before her decapitation.

              I love the imagery, the way they used the old fashioned visual effects. Classic movie.

                Art direction and ambiance in the film has really grown on me, but that SCORE.Kilar's masterpiece, even if he only gave them around 20-30 minutes of compositions and the entire score is just variations (and 2 themes are missing from the release) of that.
                I like it for what it is, but Dracula could lose the mustache.

                    As dark fantasy despite its flaws it works well. As horror it doesnt.
