I cant remember if I saw this on TV or rented it, but I know I saw it after Masters of the Universe and remember having that OMG moment when I realized Langella Dracula was also Skeletor
This was also my first vampire movie. i saw it in November of 1989, ten years after it was released. The month before I bought the a junior novelization of Dracula at a fall book fair, and I definitely wanted to see a Dracula movie after that. I was only 7 at the time. Then, in February of 1991, I saw The Lost Boys at a sleep over. My childhood, was a ghoulish one.
So good! This review was different from your other ones because I could see that passion in your eyes. You look like that little kid again 😂soI don't think I've seen this version of Dracula. Nothing is clicking. 😬🙈🤣 I like the Lost Boys but I mainly watch it because Kiefer Sutherland was so freaking hot in that movie 👀😍 Bram Stockers Dracula with Gary Oldman is my favorite. Just beautiful effects with the blood . Second is Count Dracula (1970) with Christopher Lee and psycho, Klaus Kinski lol. You made me jump at the end of this review 😂 I hope I'm not the only one you scared. 💀💜💜💜
Thanks Nye ❤️ yah this was a fond memory film for me for sure. Those are all great films. Also sorry it made you jump 😁 I love when you edit and the music syncs just right with the clip.. more impactful. 🎃👻🧛♀️🐦⬛🥀
Hi Karen. Nice to be reminded of this one and I enjoyed your enthusiasm. I have the movie on laserdisc but sadly the disc has some rot and I remember I wasn’t able to finish it but I’d been really enjoying it. I’ve just found a cheap blu ray of it so will catch up with it again soon! Fang you :) PS Trevor Eve was big on British tv when this came out as a private eye, Eddie Shoestring. It was a fun one before he went on to more serious dramas….Also when you mentioned your love of wolves, I just wondered if you have ever seen Never Cry Wolf? Not a horror movie but it’s really good. Also Bill Mason’s documentary film Cry of the Wild is worth seeing, he was a great Canadian explorer and naturalist. All the best
@@neilsmoviechannel3199 hey Neil, how are you doing? I’m glad you’ll get to see it to the end. Ok and I don’t think I’ve seen Never Cry Wolf.. I’ll look for it. I do think I’ve seen Cry Of The Wild and I remember it being really good. I’m glad you enjoyed this, part 2 coming soon 😄 Really nice chatting with you!
I have a very long list of vampire movies as you know I love vampire movies and I think we talked about this but even if we have it I'm sure you've seen me talk about this being my favorite horror movie this being what made me love vampire movies and be in my favorite vampire movie as well that is the Lost Boys but I'm not sure how much people know about what I really love I have a long list favorite Dracula movie would have to be Bram Stoker's Dracula I'm a sucker for a love story and it's got so much elements of true life of the character that Bram stoker based Dracula on in that one too and I'm a lover of History so it definitely has to be my favorite Dracula movie and I love John Carpenter's vampires what people don't know is that there's two more that to set with it and they're called Vampires: Los Muertos (2002), Vampires: The Turning (2005), I also love the underworld movies, I love the first one but the second one is kind of a guilty pleasure of mine in the next two ones and that's the 30 days of nights I know that the second one is horrible but I like it, 😂 I also like the hammer Dracula movies with Christopher Lee, another vampire movie that I adore has to be Slayers, there are so many out there and I keep trying to think of how many there are but coming up blank I just thought of two more there's original and its remake now there is a sequel to the original but I haven't seen it and that is Salem's lot from (1979) and (2004) I also have to put in there Night flyer, and the original Fright Night, I'm going to put something else in there now this isn't horror movies but another guilty pleasure of mine is the Twilight saga movies, also Van Helsing with Hugh Jackman, interview with a Vampire is another one I love, along with Queen of the Damned, all three From dusk till Dawn, Dracula from 1931, the brides of Dracula, Dark Prince: The True Story of Dracula, Dark Shadows, Nadja, Rise: Blood Hunter, Let the Right One In, Let Me In, The Forsaken, Embrace of the Vampire (1995), Once Bitten, My Best Friend is a Vampire, Way Of The Vampire, all three Blade movies, and the Return of the vampire
@@nannetteblackwell6214 yes I do know you love vampire films Man. All great films you’ve listed here. Lost Boys is rad! I love John Carpenter’s Vampires and I do know about the other 2 films in the series. Yes the Underworld films are cool too. Bram Stokers is good and I think you’ll live this one also. Check it out on Lookmovie. Happy Spooky Season 🎃👻🧛♀️
You'd never believe Frank Langella went out with Whoopi Goldberg. Dracula 1979 has one of the most romanticed Count Dracula's I've ever seen in a film. Smooth, sophisticated, and remarkably up for some swing 70s disco in the love making department. The only thing I despise about Dracula 1979 was Badham's deliberate intention to age the film or desatchrise the colour to make the film look supposedly authentic, whilst draining Gil Taylor's cinematography like a vampire to celluloid. I prefer the original version with no desatchrisation. There's very few actors that can hold your attention like Frank Langella. His good-looking physiche and his presence speak louder than words. I often wonder what Bram Stoker would've made of Langella's heavily romanticised characterisation. I don't think Stoker would be impressed with the overall story. Nice to see Cornwall take a front seat in a film. Especially St. Michael's Mt. The locations add to the overall atmosphere. I was never taken by Olivier's performance as van Helsing. He just didn't feel right, but Frank Finlay in the BBC 1977 version of Count Dracula is a revelation. But the draw is Langella. Probably the best Dracula since Christopher Lee. Oh, and Kate Nelligan. Beautiful woman.
Hey Profesor, well as far as hot steamy I’d say Copella’s film but for intellect and steamy I’d choose this one. I like this one a wee bit more, how about you Profesor? Both are great films.
It is one of the best movies on Dracula . I think it is so funny that Lucy's man is so pissed off when she is dancing with Draula , have to he is out classed by Dracula. I would have loved it if Dracula would have won in the end. the only one that was smart was Vanhalsen but he got killed and was not enough to beat Dracula.
@@northsea177 haha yah, but the little smile from Lucy at the end when his cape flies away sort of makes me think she’s hopeful he’s still around and not destroyed completely. I enjoyed that because it wasn’t just a straight forward “she’s released from his spell” but more that maybe she did love him. It’s a good film for sure.
I feel like this movie reminds me a lot visually of Cat People and Suspiria because of all the colors and how beautiful it was set I'd love to know if you agree with me I know that neither one of these movies or vampire movies but I'm sure that you've seen them if not I definitely recommend the remake of cat people and the original Suspiria movies
@@nannetteblackwell6214 great observation, yes I can agree about Cat People but I have to be honest I’ve never seen Suspiria yet Nannette, I gotta watch that one asap
It's kind of a toss up for me Lucy and Brian Stoker's Dracula was very suddenly gorgeous and I could not stop looking at her should she call my eye that way but Lucy in this movie she was just so much more creepy but they both caught my eye and made me want to stare at them
There are some things that I think it's okay to have CGI in and everything by if it can be done practically I say practical I prefer it it looks better nine times out of 10 and yeah I'm with you especially in my horror movies my action movies my fantasies like marvel and big epic battle scenes like Lord of the rings the movies I'm okay with CGI being in them but most of the time I do not like the horror movies that have CGI in them the only exception to the rules is the underworld movies I know there's probably some other movies that have CGI in them that I like that are horror movies but I'm not aware of them
I cant remember if I saw this on TV or rented it, but I know I saw it after Masters of the Universe and remember having that OMG moment when I realized Langella Dracula was also Skeletor
Haha I didn’t know that

This is a good one for sure, but which movie you think needs a cold shower more, this one or Coppola’s Bram Stoker’s Dracula?
Hey Profesor, well as far as hot steamy I’d say Copella’s film but for intellect and steamy I’d choose this one. I like this one a wee bit more, how about you Profesor? Both are great films.
This is one of the movies on the Dracula list I haven't seen yet but I'll see if I can't find it

Hated how they changed the ending in coppala version of Dracula
@@jayvalentine2046 agreed! I just remembered why I keep mixing up Lucy and Mina’s names in this one, they’re reversed in the Bram Stoker version🙃
Awesome karen im up to 2005 in my memoirs and im taking a break from ig and hopefully will make the Anthony chobot saga soon
