Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992)
From Amazon:
With dizzying cinematic tricks and astonishing performances, Francis Coppola's 1992 version of the oft-filmed Dracula story is one of the most exuberant, extravagant films of the 1990s. Gary Oldman and Winona Ryder, as the Count and Mina Murray, are quite a pair of star-crossed lovers. She's betrothed to another man; he can't kick the habit of feeding off the living. Anthony Hopkins plays Van Helsing, the vampire slayer, with tongue firmly in cheek. Tom Waits is great fun as Renfield, the hapless slave of Dracula who craves the blood of insects and cats. Sadie Frost is a sexy Lucy Westenra. And poor Keanu Reeves, as Jonathan Harker, has the...

Bram Stoker's Dracula Movie Review by B Movie Ben  (8/7/2008) |

I confess that having seen many Dracula movies, I only tuned into this to see Monica Belucci. I was not denied a beautiful treat in observing her bounteous charms, if only briefly. How could Keanu Reeves complain of being held captive by such beauty. But, I was in for an even greater treat to come.
Gary Oldman is the...

Bram Stoker's Dracula may not be the best adaptation of the classic novel, but it is undoubtedly the most stylish. It is a sexy and sumptuous feast for the eyes; it won Oscars for Makeup, Costume Design and Sound Effects Editing. Gary Oldman plays the count, whom we first meet as a warrior in 15th century Romania. He...

However, it occurred, and my love for Bram Stoker's Dracula was born.

Coming at this as a film-child that has never read the book cover to cover, I can say with certainty that with its deep and more complex story, excellent production design, unique score (often pilfered for trailers and the like), and fantastic cast, this is the best telling of the Dracula legend.
Dracula starts the...

this movie is a study in contrasts. From the first few moments, we see the Count leaving his bride, Elizabeta, to fight in the Crusades ("to defend the faith"), and he punishes his enemies by impaling what seems to be thousands... the victor underdog returns home from his holy war only to find that his beloved wife, who...
