It's funny you mention that. Just saw this RUclips interview with the director who says you know I'm surprised anyone gives me money to direct anything. 🙃
So far two major things this film has going for it, in terms of Dracula lore, is that A) he is being portrayed as very animalistic and monstrous, and B) they are really showcasing one of his signature abilities as a Vampire: The power to control the weather.
I went to see it yesterday and loved it. It was atmospheric and thrilling. I love the way they portrayed Dracula as a real hideous monster and not some good looking tortured soul. I think they should do a part 2. Would definitely go to see it.
Like a reimagining of the book story would be great, imagine like a London gripped with fear and a couple new vampires born and they have to destroy all his boxes of earth
@@hoibsh21 In which case it might also be doomed to failure cause Dracula makes it back home in the book, I really would rather the new setting be London cause its dark streets feel perfect for Dracula and it makes sense that he'd choose it for new feeding grounds or even a place to breed new vampires
Oh my god. I was lucky enough to see the preview screening in the cinema's with everyone and HOLY CRAPPPPPPPPP It's just bloody incredible. Amazing actors all around, cinematography, directing, the whole lot! Give this movie a chance and get ready to walk into your dark room and feel shive- *two knocks ring out behind me* Oh shit.
The voyage of the Demeter has always been an fascinating untapped part of the novel, not least because Stoker based it on a real ghost ship that run ashore in Whitby bay.
@@jonfreeman9682 I think the fact that Dracula layed low and took people one by one is exactly because he didn't want to risk this when more of them were still capable of fighting
I havent seen makeup for Dracula look this horrifying since the Gary Oldman version back in the 90's! That wasnt a guy in a cape, it was multiple forms from a dog/werewolf/bat/man hybrid to a living bat, and this is very much in that vein (no pun intended), this Dracula only resembles something human, but is tall, imposing, inhuman looking and TERRIFYING! I cannot wait to see this movie, and a proper depiction of a the vampire Lord!
.. But they Netflix'd it with Billy Ocean. They used this Barlow creature before on that Netflix series where the priest turns a whole island town into vampires, which I think was better btw .
Saw it last night. Completely blown away by the production design and the style of the film. It’s like universal and hammer horror mixed. Wonderful film with great performances throughout . Old fashioned film making at its best here. One of my favourite films of the year so far.
This movie was surprisingly fantastic!!! The practical sets and creature makeup/suit definitely elevated it above typical mainstream productions. Also, great behind-the-scenes featurette!!! They don't make 'em like this anymore...
I saw this movie and I’m glad I did! My partner didn’t get it cause he was expecting typical Dracula and horror. But I love that this film took the story seriously and everyone that was a part of this film did an amazing job! Really made Dracula feel otherworldly. I want the writer and director to continue the story! 😊😊
@@Jokerasylum14The Wolfman was fine!!! Benicio even looks like Lon Chaney Jr from the original (1941) film ....The Mummy didn't need to be made because we already got with Brenden Frasers Mummy & I haven't seen the invisible man but honestly regardless what they did with it...u can't beat the iconic original unless u just copy it & dub in Claude Rains voice from the original 👍
@@mattlawrence1932 the 90s mummy wasn’t part of the dark universe but I agree with you. The new take on the invisible man was cool man in my opinion. Definitely worth a watch.
@@sarahhendridge3774 sorry, that wasnt really my intention. just thought, that the dracula story and therefor the demeter-chapter, is known, so it wasnt a big deal for me posting this. maybe the creative team aims for another direction ?
I love this movie I could not purchase it fast enough! Finally, they fill in the gaps about what happened with the ship the Demeter and Dracula. It’s about time! This movie was very well done very creepy, but beautifully shot.
Rare to see such a sumptuous set construction for a film these days ... everything is Volume LED digital ... nothing beats practical sets and effects....
This movie is beautiful, it sucks that nobody went to theaters to see it, I went with my girlfriend the weekend it came out & I loved it, I hope they make the sequel anyway, but if not that’s ok, it works as a standalone also
I would hate to think where they got this from, but it looks scary!!! Would actually consider watching it in the theater, even though I don’t watch scary movies anymore, but this looks interesting. I’m a storyteller too!!! both fact & fiction, would like to show everybody my story, I feel though most people would like it, don’t know if they could handle it though, in terms of this one, it actually looks pretty good, the visuals look very enticing, just hope the story itself is the actual star of the movie, not just jump scares and scary imaging, but a story, that’s what get people excited, at least me.
most excellent movie ! well done and chilling- cinematography and the make up was a ff rhe chart !just wondering why so many crates of diet were sent as well ?!
DON´T CARE WHAT THE BOXOFFICE SAYS, THIS MOVIE IS SPECTACULAR!!!!!!!!! seriously, big fan of the novel here, even with some tiny issues, this movie is amazing also, Bear McCreary did the score
I missed the days when actors work with real fire in the lanterns in front of the screen before the the actor's union demand more pay for working with actual fire, also the studios have to pay added insurance costs for the potential/possibility of a fire hazard.
Wow, imagine wanting to be paid fairly to willingly put yourself in a situation where you could catch fire and die a horrible death in front of your colleagues? -_-
haven’t seen the movie but i’ve seen clips and they made the horrible mistake of covering over Dracula face with cgi. in this video you can actually just see the guy in the suit and it looks 100 times better than the overly cgi look he has in the clips i’ve seen. i don’t understand why they insist on doing this. live in camera will always look better than any cgi effect.
i watched this movie and trust me that new insidious movie is nowhere near as scary as this infact not even close,this is by far one of the best horror movie ive seen worth every money you pay I just wish there would be trilogy.
Dracula in this movie looks like a skinwalker, he looks like what the skinwalker looks like when it's not disguising itself as an animal or another human to me.
This movie was great, but also not…. The visuals were fantastic BUT the storyline was never rounded. Which is why I think it was not nearly as successful as it could have been. Why was Anna never grilled about her background, who Dracula is, and what to expect? It was such a huge plot hole that the whole story fell through it!
Update & SPOILER: I later learned that just by the title of the film real Dracula fans know immediately that he survives to London so my overreaction is unsupported
That's how the book goes. It's a 16 page chapter from a book published in 1892. They started that journey and they all died with the captain tied to the wheel. But they could have added more action.
Listening to Liam Cunningham and especially David Dastmalchian is a delight, you can see they know their "Dracula". So sad this movie underperformed.....

I don't know who slipped this movie past the execs and got the funding for these sets & effects, but they are a legend.
Saw it, loved it. Buying the Bluray.
It's funny you mention that. Just saw this RUclips interview with the director who says you know I'm surprised anyone gives me money to direct anything. 🙃
Truthfully.
I never even knew this movies was coming. Watched it and loved it. Looks good, feels good.
So far two major things this film has going for it, in terms of Dracula lore, is that A) he is being portrayed as very animalistic and monstrous, and B) they are really showcasing one of his signature abilities as a Vampire: The power to control the weather.
That is funny man!
Saw it, loved. Shame Universal didn’t hold it until October.
@@1929octIt’s called a book chapter.
Control the weather? That's true. Every time Dracula shows up you see thunder ⛈️ and ⚡ and shadows and silhouette. Rather convenient don't you think.
Also he flies in bat-human form.
I went to see it yesterday and loved it. It was atmospheric and thrilling. I love the way they portrayed Dracula as a real hideous monster and not some good looking tortured soul. I think they should do a part 2. Would definitely go to see it.
In the novel Drac takes the Demeter to England, but then he takes another ship home to Transylvania. The other ship is yr sequel!!
@@hoibsh21I take it you have no plans on becoming a film maker?

FK yeah it was awesome. I went to see it today before they take it off screens. But wished the crew would fight back more and it would be even better.
The voyage of the Demeter has always been an fascinating untapped part of the novel, not least because Stoker based it on a real ghost ship that run ashore in Whitby bay.
It's the best part and this movie was good but could have been great if they added more action showing the crew fighting back.
@@jonfreeman9682 I think the fact that Dracula layed low and took people one by one is exactly because he didn't want to risk this when more of them were still capable of fighting
The 1921 Nosferatu covered this part and Max Schreck's look in that movie is an obvious inspiration for the one is this one.
The special effects for them burning to death was absolutely horrific. As a horror movie fan, I loved this film. 🎯
I like that Dracula is in his rawest form
Same!!
Watched it two times in cinema and already pre-ordered the BluRay. Amazing movie. I want to see more of this 😍
IKR, I've seen this new classic 2 times
I just seen the movie. I would place this up there with Bram Stoker's Dracula, Salem's Lot, Fright Night and Vamp. Good movie!
I havent seen makeup for Dracula look this horrifying since the Gary Oldman version back in the 90's! That wasnt a guy in a cape, it was multiple forms from a dog/werewolf/bat/man hybrid to a living bat, and this is very much in that vein (no pun intended), this Dracula only resembles something human, but is tall, imposing, inhuman looking and TERRIFYING!
I cannot wait to see this movie, and a proper depiction of a the vampire Lord!
Just got out of theater and the movie is SPECTACULAR! a different view of Dracula…..Perfect Cast!
better this Dracula , than a "lover" Dracula...
my best movie regarding Dracula character was made by Leslie Nielsen...
I love how this Dracula looks like a mix of Nosferatu and Barlow from Salem's Lot. It's a horrible design that evokes real terror
Absolutely 💯 Most Draculas are too romanticized.. Dracula is a dirty monster! 🧛🏾♂️
.. But they Netflix'd it with Billy Ocean. They used this Barlow creature before on that Netflix series where the priest turns a whole island town into vampires, which I think was better btw .
@@jojoheartspaypay you mean Chapelwaite? That series was really cool
I cannot wait to see this movie. It's been on my list for awhile.
It was bloody brilliant!!! Enjoy!
It's good!

movie was fantastic. So refreshing against a backdrop of never ending crappy sequels and superhero movies.
Brilliant work loved the film came on this channel and then compare the original.
This movie looks awesome
Very Good Movie! Movies like this are very rare Today. I Hope they do a Sequel
Liam cunningham is back to the seas I see. This man was born in the sea.
This movie was surprisingly fantastic!!! The practical sets and creature makeup/suit definitely elevated it above typical mainstream productions.
Also, great behind-the-scenes featurette!!! They don't make 'em like this anymore...

The ship was beautiful, the crew was accommodating and the buffet was great. Best cruise ever! Five stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️- Dracula
After watching this film I really wanted a part 2 of this film.
LOVED THIS MOVIE!
I have not seen the full movie, but it scared the hell out of me, even if I am an horror movie lover
I saw it opening weekend. I loved it. 12/10. Cant wait and hoping for this story to move forward.
Thank u writers, crew, actors and director!
FK yeah it's amazing but let's not go overboard. It's a 6.5 but it's still good. It just needs more action.
@@jonfreeman9682 to each it's own. Bu I really enjoyed it.
it bombed at the box office so there probably will never be a sequel
Very excited to see this movie. Wish they brought back the dark universe.
They did but due to poor movies they cancelled it. The mummy with cruise, wolf man , the invisible man. But maybe this will give it hope again idk
I would agree if any of the movies under that umbrella had been good. But alas…
@@foreverkent2225 I actually liked wolf man and invisible man though. Not bad movies in my opinion

the monster here representing dracula it gives u the chills..amazing work made by Javier Botet
i feel so sad for all the cast, because we all know how this chapter ends in the original book
The black character might live.
I don't, but thx 4 ruining it 4 me 😢

Already worried about the dog
@@mhaipeter42don’t feel bad, I mean the story is over 125 years old…. Spoilers kinda went out the window around 100 years ago… 🤣
Never really cared too much about Dracula but this movie caught my attention. I can’t wait to see it
Saw it today, loved it
He is a perfect monster - I agree with that

This movie was awesome!! I loved it, one of my favorite modern horror films
This film was fantastic!
I do… I do wanna be scared-crapless! That’s what I need in my life! ✌️😂
seeing it friday night can’t wait
Saw this movie Monday. Loved it!
This movie & cobweb are 2 best movies i have seen this year
Looks good!!
Saw it over the weekend and loved it. Already preordered it for physical media purchase.
Do you buy DVD or Blu-ray? I think Blu-ray quality is better than streaming.
Didn't deserve to be a box office flop. It felt like a lot of passion was put into the project
It was amazing! I will go to rewatch this masterpiece! 👏🏼💞
I'm looking forward to this film
CGI and jump scare and visual effect original Transylvanian Drakul
I would hate to think where they got this from, but it looks scary!!! Would actually consider watching it in the theater, even though I don’t watch scary movies anymore, but this looks interesting.

cant wait definitely seeing it in the theatre
I loved this movie.
We all know how it ends. So it leaves it open for a second one.
I just saw it earlier at AMC, and I loved it. This would easily be a classic as much as Bram Stoker’s Dracula by Francis Ford Coppola.
I’d be sad ☹️😢😪🤧 if there’s no part 2 😉 beautiful movie 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Can’t wait to see this‼️
I can’t wait to see this movie

Master piece
in now im a fan of javier botet... you're so amazing...
Remind me of them monsters from Descent
Went to see it and It's really good definitely will add to my 4k collection
LOOKS LIKE AN AWSOME MOVIE!
The theater may need some medical EMS personnel on staff for this.....
This movie is pure gold!
Glad classic monsters movies are returning.
*This is gonna be sooo good!!*

haven't you heard?
Actors are a penny a dozen.
The show must go on.
No pain no fame.
@@Can_O_Crayola
good movie , just saw it
I loved it but wasn't as scary as they described it. Could have turned up the fear a little more. It had its moments. Overall a great story.
Cant wait!!!!
Wish this film would come to the U.K.!
i got an ad about this film
What a great cast!

How many forms will Dracula take

❤love the count
Dracula in this movie looks like a skinwalker, he looks like what the skinwalker looks like when it's not disguising itself as an animal or another human to me.
I like that they are going back to the Dracula of “Nosferutu” - no more pretty men !!
Nosferatu
At the end in the pub he became Jack the Ripper.
They should be releasing this near Halloween.
Really disappointed that this will not be shown in the UK.
Seriously?? How come ? I feel like movies should release everywhere in the world that has theaters
Melhor filme do conde dracula foi.a historia nunca contada com

Saw it yesterday,, f**king Amazing... I'm takeng my wife on Friday to see it. Can't wait. Thanks all for the best film of the year.
Would have been better if they made the animals into vampires to create even more steaks
Can't wait💀💀💀
Gotta adore Liam Cunningham
Where can i buy it?
This was a great movie. My ONLY complaint is that it doesn't have any resolution and so many films these days think that's just okay
Update & SPOILER: I later learned that just by the title of the film real Dracula fans know immediately that he survives to London so my overreaction is unsupported

They turned him from a seducing blood sucker into a feral blood sucker from a Diablo game!!!! That's really all they had to say 👍
That is what Dracula is in the book.
This movie was too good
Give it a watch if you like vampire stuff
One of the most finely crafted monster stories ever filmed....
Listening to Liam Cunningham and especially David Dastmalchian is a delight, you can see they know their "Dracula".
So sad this movie underperformed.....
Andre Ovredal should direct HELLBOY
This movie was an absolute masterpiece!
