      [Dracula is outside Mina's room]

      Dracula: [to the maid] Essie... Essie... Your eyelids are growing heavy You will sleep... sleep.

      [Essie nods off to sleep]

      Dracula: Mina... Mina, open your eyes!

      [she does]

      Dracula: Arise, Mina.

      [she does]

      Dracula: Walk to the door.

      [Mina opens a door, and goes inside]

      Dracula: Mina... you are in the closet. Open the door, and come out.

      [she does]

      Dracula: Now walk to the Terrace Door. Watch out for the foot...

      [too late! Mina trips over the footstool, and goes flying]

      Dracula: Stool. Stand up.

      [Essie and Mina both rise]

      Dracula: Not you. Sit!

      [Mina sits]

      Dracula: No, not you, *you* sit.

      [Essie sits]

      Dracula: *You* stand.

      [both stand]

      Dracula: No! Sit!

      [both sit]

      Dracula: No, you stand!

      [both stand]

    The Funniest Horror Spoof Ever Made
    This was the second Mel Brooks film I ever watched, and I

    positively reeled in laughter watching it. I do not understand how

    this movie only achieves a 4.5 rating.

    Among the many memorable moments there are several downright hysterical gags: when Dracula slips in the bat poop

    trying to walk down the stairs, when Harker drives the stake and is

    drenched in blood, when Dracula rises from his coffin and bashes

    his head on the chandelier...the list goes on and on.

    Also, Harvey Korman was extremely funny as the bumbling,

    blubbering Dr Seward; as was Mel Brooks as Dr Van Helsing, and

    Leslie Nielson as Dracula.

    I give it 9/10.
