For the scene in which Steven Weber puts a stake in Lucy's heart, Mel did not tell him that he would be subsequently covered in 200 gallons of blood, so that his reaction would appear natural. more

Very funny, 14 October 2004
Author: vchimpanzee from North Carolina

Renfield set out to find Count Dracula in Transylvania, and it was immediately clear from people's reactions that this would be a funny movie. Eventually, Renfield and Dracula ended up on a ship, and in England, Dracula began causing problems for Dr. Seward, the man running an asylum, and his daughters. Renfield was apparently Dracula's servant by this time. Dr. Van Helsing was called in to find out what was going on.

I like this kind of comedy. It wasn't 'Naked Gun' or 'Airplane!' but Leslie Nielsen, Harvey Korman and Mel Brooks were very good given the material. I didn't care for the blood and gore, but sometimes the gore was not violent, just silly. Some highlights:

When one hypnotizes someone, that person must be sure that when he says to forget everything you've been told by the hypnotist, that this applies only after you have done what the hypnotist said to do. Dracula did not.

Dracula hypnotized Mina and Essie at the same time.

One person who turned into a vampire had to be killed for good with a stake.

I'm not saying whether this was accomplished, only that the attempt was hilarious.

'Oh, yes, we have Nosferatu.'

Dracula danced in front of a mirror. Great special effects, good choreography since the partner had to know what to do alone.
