Come on, are you telling me that this wasn't a good Dracula film? This brought excitement and romance back into the idea of Dracula. Frank made Dracula into his own and became the perfect cast for the dark prince. When I was younger, I wanted this guy to be my boyfriend! LOL! But he was just that effective.
The story takes some different turns and isn't too close to Bram Stroker's novel, but still has high entertainment. Dracula still comes to buy Carfax Abbey in England by Jonathan Harker, which the actor scared me because he looks so much like my dad, but instead of keeping Jonathan as a prisoner, he is invited to a party with Jonathan and his fiancée Lucy's, that's right, Lucy, not Mina, family with her friend Mina who happens to have two little puncture marks on her throat.
When Mina passes on, Dracula makes his move onto Lucy and falls in love with her. But of course Van Helsing has something else to say about that and will destroy the fiend that killed his daughter, that's right, you heard me! Mina is Van Helsing's daughter in this one! Well, anyways, I would recommend this Dracula movie. It's one of the better must see's for Dracula fans!
