Needs more horror.

Rating: 6/10 (3 March 2003)

Yes this look at Dracula is definitely more romance than horror as there is really nothing that is all that scary in it. Not that it is entirely bad...in fact I would say I found it an ok movie, just needed more horror. The story is of course about Dracula...Keanu Reeves character goes to work for him after his previous employee Renfield went insane. Dracula sees a picture of Reeves fiancé (Ryder) and since she looks like someone he used to be in love with he goes after her leaving Reeves a prisoner in the castle. Dracula makes it to where Ryder is and attempts to win her over. Meanwhile, Reeves makes his escape. Hopkins playing Van Helsing comes involved, as Dracula has been sucking on Ryder's friend Lucy so she is a bit ill and Helsing is some expert. All in all not a bad film just needed a little more work in the horror department.
