Dracula is a 1992 horror-romance film directed by Francis Ford Coppola. It stars Gary Oldman, Winona Ryder, Anthony Hopkins and Keanu Reeves. It is another telling of Bram Stoker's classic story of Dracula. This adaptation of the story has some differences from others, such as Dracula having a love interest.
The film was very entertaining. It was shocking and gruesome in some parts but beautifully shot in other parts. The special effects were very convincing and still hold up 20 years later. What really makes this film a must watch is the acting from Gary Oldman as Dracula. I was amazed at how convincing he was as the count. Sadly, Keanu Reeves acting is absolutely terrible and really hurt the film because it was hard to watch him act. If you are a fan of the horror or the Dracula story, you will love this movie because for the most part it stays true to the book besides Dracula's love interest plot.
There are so many different versions of Dracula and I find it hard to follow along with all of them. But this one in particular is my favorite. There are so many vampire films coming out now and people easily forget one of the original vampires!
ReplyDeleteThis is one of my favorite films even with Keanu's bad acting, for me he's so bad he's almost good. Great Flick though
