"Bram Stoker's Dracula" is a two-movie that succeeds in passing an extremely gloomy, Gothic and terrifying mood, with an extremely theatrical direction, the long show all vampire classic archetype, sex, seduction, blood, shadows and monsters are exposed from A linearly beautiful and unique way. The script brings us the story of Count Dracula, imprisoned for centuries in this land after renouncing Christ for the church not wanting to bury his wife, realizes that his beloved reincarnated in London, and the same part for the English capital in the Victorian era to seek your beloved.

We have great performances here, although Keanu Reeves is not so well, Gary Oldeman is spectacular as Dracula and Anthony Hopkins sometimes scare more than the Dracula prophetic as his antithesis, Dr. Van Helsing, is worth a salve to the beautiful Winona Ryder as Mina , The beloved of Dracula, and Sandie Frost, who has a performance that highlights her wild beauty, and convinces and frightens her transformation into a vampire. Finally, "The Dracula of Bram Stoker" is a sensational adaptation, even in his Rhythm and in changing some things in relation to the book - For worse - nonetheless, it is a great film, with a great direction, and the last great one Vampire movie
