I think the whole creation of Dracula scene is great. It is drinking human blood that turns him into a vampire, his wife's death simply gives him the motivation to do so. We see, in advance, what a monster he already was, thn his wife's suicide just breaks the camel's back.

Dracula: "You will be my bride until the end of time." Mina: "That would most good, Dracula. Most good."

Bram Stoker's Dracula is my favorite version. Gary Oldman can portray any role he wants( Sid Vicious, Dracula, Commissioner Gordon, a Dwarf, ect.).

I don't know why more movies don't do that these days. In movies like this and then American Werewolf in London, there is virtually no CGI effect that's going to look as natural as makeup effects. You have to transform something that's real. Even when natural effects don't look all that impressive, they still look better than botched CGI. You've got KZread stars that can transform themselves into almost any celebrity on earth. The products and talent are incredible. Hopefully one of these days directors will go back to real special effects.

Tony Paluso's Bram Stoker's Dracula: The Italian Edition. *Dracula gets staked* Ohhhh Ohhhh I'm sleepin here, I'm sleepin here!

This film has the greatest evil laugh in any film I’ve seen. Dracula’s laugh at the end of the scene with the brides of Dracula is bone chilling and super over the top at the same time.

I never considered the similarities between Dracula and Peter Pan before. They're both immortal, they have detachable shadows, they can fly, they steal people away in the night, Dracula's brides are basically 3 Tinkerbells...I'm just saying I've never seen them both in the same place at the same time.

This is my second favorite Dracula adaptation after the 1979 version with Frank Langella. Costumes, Make Up FX, and In Camera Effects were top notch.

The 79 film is super underrated. Love the opening. The tone and atmosphere is great and Laurence Olivier is Van Helsing.

I've always wondered what Tobias Funke would sound like if he dressed like Dracula and tried doing an impression of Keanu Reeves. Now I know

Joe's Keanu is spot-on.

Random fact I know: the painting they modeled is a self protrait of Albrecht Durër who absolutely loved painting himself for some reason. Also the guy behind the famous praying hands. I had to do a report on him in 7th grade 😆

RIP Quincy: May the wings of liberty never lose a feather.

Primitive music boxes existed in the time of Vlad III, and musical combs were a thing a hundred years before the time Dracula is set.

I wish Newt was in this video.

Don't you guys find it sorta hypocritical that Vlad tells Renfield that Mina has to fall in love with him of free will, then proceeds to tame a wolf and be an independently wealthy prince with stunner shades on?

Another Drac review let's go!! Hype for this one Tony! and It's great to see the return of Joe to the pod, dressed as svengoolie too, what a treat!

This movie kicks ass! I wanted to be Dracula so bad because of this movie, I wanted to turn into a wolf or mist or a bat. I thought that was so cool.

Dracul means dragon,.. Vlad was the son of a Dracul, when you are the son of a dragon you get an A at the end,.. therefore, his name is Vlad Teppes Dracula. Dracula is a birthright title. (this is IRL, not in fiction)

I love witnessing Bran Stoker's Dracula getting some love. It's my favourite Dracula movie, and possibly my favourite vampire movie. A beautiful movie, with a phenomenal score.

"What's a Transylvanian name for Jessica?" ...Jessica. Wallachians had a mix of weird, and extremely normal names. For example Vlad III's cousins included Vladislav, Basarab... and Dan.

Van Helsing was a doctor in the early 1900's, and therefor had access to medical grade cocaine and opium. Makes this performance make TOTAL sense.

After I saw Dracula, I’ve read the rest of the title as Talking About Tepes :)

Dude, my grandma and grandpa were from Transylvania. Gary Oldman did the accent perfectly.

Here is the primary reason this is the best Dracula movie ever made: It explains how he came back from the dead and shows why: his love of Elizabeth'a. [He's not just some snarling blood thirsty monster, but a tragic character forced to exist without his love.] The movie is great to look at, to listen to, to appreciate all the cast members and awe to Oldman's various portrials of the Count's power and compassion.

But I think I actually enjoyed this a bit better. You go more in depth and walk us through(with some great banter sprinkled in between). Also you and Joe seem to have a great rapport!

Love how this at no point went off the rails… the 2 person format works so much better for Tony.

That Gary Oldman Dracula mask is as impressive as this movie is.

Ive always said that everything that happens before Peter goes to Neverland in Hook is fantastic, but once he's there the film falls apart. The first quarter of the film has this mysterious, haunting quality and Spielberg did it wonderfully. Like when Peter steps back into the nursery again for the first time and sees the Hook painting on the wall, and the music is swelling. Brilliant. But everything in Neverland is just kind of stupid.

Great episode 👏

So, with Keanu's voice here, maybe this is why you don't back-to-back a Bill and Ted movie with a high-art novel adaptation. By the way, they do something in Bill and Ted Face the Music where they visit their future selves and they're pretending to be rich in Dave Grohl's house, and Keanu is DOING THE HARKER VOICE ON PURPOSE!

That Dracula Video sign hurt my heart

there could have been a methane deposit and somebody lit it on fire once and it never went out, but you could only see it at night, fracking in pennsylvania goes after that gas, but wrecks the entire environment just to dig for it, and all is left is a burning crater where normal land used to be

the laugh of the Mad Hatter in the latest episode of Batwoman ranks pretty high in creepy/freakyness next to Dracula's laugh in this movie

Best review so far.

I'm with you on this one, Tony. Bram Stoker's Dracula is one of my favorite films as well.

I saw this with my dad at home and I loved it!

I was all about this movie throughout high school and the soundtrack too.

This was awesome

_Bram Stoker's Dracula_ is a tantalising aesthetic experience, with gorgeous visuals, lavish production design and a sumptuous score, but suffers from the wooden acting of the supporting cast and a poorly adapted screenplay. Oldman's performance as the titular antagonist is brilliant, but it's not enough to carry the entire picture, which is tonally inconsistent almost from the beginning, jumping from scene to scene with little to no character continuity. Seemingly random lines of dialogue are recited and never addressed, and the transitions between each act occur in such a disjointed manner that the viewer can't help but wonder if the editor was drunk. I have no idea whether these inconsistencies are the result of intentional creative choices or sloppy screenwriting. It has a great deal of charm, though, with its reliance on old school practical effects, optical illusions, and all manner of camera trickery. Hopkins gives the only performance of his career that feels lacklustre, and the casting of Reeves and Ryder, who were included in order to appeal to the Generation X demographic, was definitely a mistake. Tom Waits turns in a performance so bizarre that not even his character being a raving lunatic can account for it.

I was lucky enough to see this movie in theaters with my mom as a kid. Unfortunately as soon as dracula came out with the baby to give to his brides my mom kicked out. And snuck me into a screening of Mortal Kombat 😂

The big old knife is a Kukri, a 7th Century axe-knife similar to the Roman Falcata axe-sword. The Kukri is associated with Gurkhas, the Nepali speaking people of India and Nepal with the Kukri being the national weapon of Nepal as well as a favored martial weapon in armed conflicts from the Middle East to East Asia to date. Went full Paramedic 😳

I was 8or9 when dad took me to see this. It's easily in my top 5 Dracula films, and my favorite tree house of Horrors spoof is still Mr Burns as this Dracula⚰

finally finshed this movie last year after years of watching it so many times

No movie is better than Master of Disguise - that is the best movie ever made.

This film is an eclectic collection of artistic, crazy ideas, proper spectacle.
