Editorial Review:
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 misfortune to be seduced by Dracula's three half-naked wives. There's a little bit of everything in this version of Dracula: gore, high-speed horseback chases, passion, and longing.

Rating: - Blu-ray Audio
There are many reviewers who have already discussed the artistic merits (and more) of this film - I thought it was amazing from the first time I saw it in a theater. My question is about the audio on the Blu-ray edition. I have a superbit version of this film and on my system, the audio is much more pleasing on the standard DVD. I wonder if anyone else has noticed that the levels and EQ in some parts of the film leave a lot to be desired - compared to other releases or even the special features... ... Read More
Rating:  - "I Am The Last Of My Kind" ~ Diseases Of The Blood, The Green Fairy And Other Gothic Romances
The '92 cinematic release `Dracula' is a dark, exceedingly eerie and surprisingly romantic gothic rendering of the Dracula mythos containing a magnificent performance by Gary Oldman as the infamous Count D.
While `Dracula' incorporates all the usual horror elements the horror fan has come to expect from a bona fide horror classic (creepy monster(s), marvelous special effects, lots of blood, etc...,) it raises itself to a higher level supplying its audience with an intelligent, insightful ... Read More
Rating:  - Bram Stokers's Dracula
I thought Gary Oldman was great. The movie was horrible. I had just finished reading the book and was so excited to see the movie. The first scene of the movie was wrong. What a horrible interpretation. If they wanted to make the movie based on the book, how can they ruin the main plot? Dracula and Mina Harker were never in love. The book in my opinion isn't even about Dracula. It's about the love between Jonathon and Mina. Mina's love for Dracula though-out the movie was stupid. Such a great story. Cant ... Read More
Rating:  - 90s Dracula
Dracula in the 90s is much more pure. The vampire myth, dead in the 80s, made a 90s comeback, and this is the best vampre flick made in the 90s, sucessful enough to spawn a video game. I liked it, it wasn't scary. It is gothic. Liked it. Enjoy!
Rating: - Stupid movie, dishonest title
Coppola should be sued for this title; this is NOT Bram Stoker's Dracula. Not even close. For one thing, Stoker's novel was well done. This movie is trash. From the ridiculous-looking make-up for Gary Oldman to the high-school-play English accent of Keanu Reeves... all trash. And let's not forget Dracula's "scary" shadow doing "scary" things. Tremble; shiver. Actually, I groaned and laughed.
People always pretend they can read Stoker's mind and claim he was REALLY writing about Victorian ... Read More
