Bram Stoker’s Dracula is a horror movie directed by Francis Ford Coppola. Starring Gary Oldman, Winona Ryder, Anthony Hopkins and Keanu Reeves.
Plot
In 1462, Elisabeta, the wife of Vlad Dracula, the ruler of Transylvania, throws herself to her death, wrongly believing that her husband has been killed while defending against the Turks. But when the church he has been defending condemns her soul to Hell for taking her own life, Dracula damns them and accepts the powers of darkness to become a vampire. In the 1890s, clerk Jonathan Harker travels to Transylvania to enact the sale of several properties in London to Dracula. But Dracula gives Harker to his vampire wives and travels to England. Once in London, Dracula believes Harker’s fiancee Mina Murray to be the reincarnation of Elisabeta and determines to seduce her to join him in darkness. (FIlmaffinity)

Movie Reviews
- “A horror film that substitutes eye-popping sensation for genuine dramatic power (…) The director has dressed up a classic tale in mesmerizing visual overkill without coming close to its dark heart.” Owen Gleiberman: Entertainment Weekly
- “Dracula has the nervy enthusiasm of the work of a precocious film student who has magically acquired a master’s command of his craft. It’s surprising, entertaining and always just a little too much” Vincent Canby: The New York Times
“A bloody visual feast (…)This Dracula could have been less heavy and more deliciously evil than it is, but it does offer a sumptuous engorgement of the senses.”
