Close to being a great vampire film

Rating: 7/10 (6 April 1999)

This story has been told numerous times, but it still hasn't been done to my satisfaction. This leads me to think that I can't be satisfied with anything done on Count Dracula. This was the biggest production I've seen done with any vampire movie. Big name stars, top director, huge budget. I still went away wanting more; I think the sad, lost-love side of the vampire didn't appeal to me. I like my blood drinkers unfeeling, monstrous little neck biters. All traces of humanity gone. Still, it was a show worth watching. Well done.
