- Bela Lugosi stars as Dracula in the 1931 original screen version of Bram Stoker’s classic tale. Towering ominously among the shadows of the Carpathian Mountains, Castle Dracula strikes fear in the hearts of the Transylvanian villagers below. After a naive real estate agent succumbs to the will of Count Dracula, the two head to London where the vampire hopes to stroll among respectable society by day and search for potential victims by night. Directed by horror specialist Tod Browning, the film creates an eerie, chilling mood that has been rarely realized since and remains a masterpiece not only of the genre, but of all time.

Imagine giving a performance so iconic that people still imitate it nearly 100 years later. Truly, Bela Lugosi is as immortal as Dracula himself!
This is such an iconic moment. No colour yet the atmosphere is absolutely perfect. Dracula's chilling presence still gives me goose bumps and the way Bela Lagosi captures the character of pure evil mixed with a hint of seduction and grace is just perfect. I've loved Dracula all my life and this movie hits all the right spots.
Those bats though...
"No color yet the atmosphere is absolutely perfect... Bela Lagosi! 🥰🥰🤗
Something that I think is worth pointing out is that by 1931 sound movies were still a relatively new thing being that the first sound film was in 1927 and even that the moments with sound in that movie were very brief.
This is why it might seem jarring to watch today because outside of the main theme of the movie and when people were talking there was no effort made towards creating a soundscape or any sort of film score/soundtrack.
This silence though just really works in these movies and doesn't come off as awkward.
@genericwhitekidthesecond4330 That's very true. I just love the way the silence works, and even the lack of music has a profound and creepy effect.
Bela's Dracula is the perfect mix of classy, charming, seductive, commanding, creepy and mysterious, I just adore him! Not to mention that iconic voice. Such a great performance, and the definitive take on the Count!!
And gay
Gay?
@@actorvijayofficial_68gay ?🧐
No one can do better than Bela Lugosi they don't have talent like this anymore
@@actorvijayofficial_68 you’re talking about yourself son 😆
My life goal is to learn to mimic the accent and all the mannerism of the character and then open a little bed and breakfast.
Hahahahahaha!
Excellent idea...I wish you all the success. For one who has not even lived a single lifetime, you are quite wise...
Haha 😂
I'd go lol
That actually sounds pretty cool.
I showed Dracula to an elementary English language class at a junior college in Japan and the students were absolutely captivated by it.
I`m sure you made an excellent choice to motivate your Japanese students to learn English. Many Japanese people consider they cannot learn English because English is too hard to learn. But once Japanese people are motivate properly, I think they are quick learners of English.
Commendable of you, but ironic. Lugosi learned his lines in the Dracula stage-play (upon which this film is based) phonetically. I'm not trying to sound pretentious, but it's true. That's why his cadence is so weird in this movie, and hence so effective. "Wee will be leaaaving....tomorrow....eeeeeevening."
5:38 The expression on Draccy's face is hilarious. He must have realized the property taxes went up
Right?! 😂🤣
I know this is the start of the "talkies" and all, but the lack of music makes it creepier! Great scene!
I agree. I hate that all these new horror films have obnoxious soundtracks. Don't get me wrong there are a few modern horror films with surprisingly great osts, but nothing beats pure silence, because like you said it forces the viewer to fully immerse themselves in the visuals and non-musical sounds.
The absence of music makes it almost feel like a stage play (in a good way).
Very very creepy indeed
I saw this movie in my 4th period class and the silence made me fall asleep about halfway into this movie and i really wish i could've seen those parts i fell asleep to now- (Don't blame me since school starts at 7am for me and i'm tired af more than half of the time)
because not every town had a s aound equipt projector they were still distributing films in this era in Silent format. so the film has spacing to place the cards
Wow, Bela Lugosi nailed ASMR over a half century earlier before it was a genre. Pure skill, class and perfection.
Nothing better than watching Dracula on a rainy day or night! ❤❤
With the Philip glass/kronos quartet score!!! It’s so great. Swan lake Dosent work.
Dracula: I am Dracula
Me: That's nice. I'll be going now.
I admire the way Lugosi was able to effortlessly reach for the wine glass and bottle (at 7:02), with perfect precision, though all the while, maintaining a fixed gaze upon Frye--not an easy thing to do (which probably took more than one take).
It was with equal amusement, that I heard for the first time, "I never drink. . .wine" (considering I've always loathed the taste of it). Lugosi was the best!
So many films today are just wall to wall music, the lack of it here I think actually makes it creepier and makes you watch closer.
Amazing set design.
Literally goosebumps when Dracula enters the picture. . So iconic.
"I am Dracula. I bid you welcome".
Gotta go!
What a restoration! Incredible! I've never seen this look so prestine.
Listen to them. The children of the night, what music they make
I quite like the old gritty aesthetic but this is nice too.
...This look so prestine" 😍🤟😁
That is one dedicated insurance salesman ... he deserves a raise!
Watched this from Brasov, Romania!
Children of ze night🌙
“I am…Dracula.”
Lugosi is not saying he’s Dracula…he’s TELLING you he’s Dracula.
I remember my parents asking me if I was gonna be scared of watching this movie when I was 7 or 8 years old I told them no> But after watching the movie I went upstairs and went into my bathroom I was thankful that I had a nightlight in my bathroom I sat down on my toilet seat for a hour in a half processing everything that I watched I was totally blown away by the movie I love every single person in this movie. And yes Bella Lugosi is Count Dracula he iin bodys that charecter so well thats scary enough in itself for anyone who's seen this movie
This restoration looks absolutely amazing. So much detail. You can see everything like the set decorators and director intended. This is definitely the most iconic horror movie of all time. Bela is amazing. I could watch this movie over and over and never grow tired of it.
I always had a soft spot for vampires when I was 7 or 5 and Dracula was my favorite monster of all time... and Bram Stroker's Dracula 1992 was amazing and Gary Oldman was amazing as Count Dracula and Winona Ryder as Mia Murrary. I have both movies on DVD I still watch them for Halloween. Halloween is my favorite hoilday and Christmas.
In addition to the accent and the gaze, I am always struck by how very long Bela's fingers are! They add to the overall creepiness of the character.
RENFIELD: Aren't you going to drink?
DRACULA: I never drink Vine.
amazing a 90 year old film looks this good. The 4k transfer was done well.
Actually 93 years old.The film was released in 1931.
an amazing classic horror movie and one of my favourite classic horror movies and stunning in 4K
Those sets are amazing.
I would love to have seen peoples face in the theater watching this! I'll bet they were terrified!!
My mother was a teenager when she saw Bela Lugosi on stage as Dracula. She said that at one point, there was only the light of one candle on the stage and the women in the audience were screaming in terror when the Count bit one of his victims who was asleep in her bed.
Grande Bela Lugosi el mejor Drácula
I'm Definitely Dressing as Bela Lugosi next Halloween.. Iove this Dracula I Bid You Welcome
"Ah, fresh victims for my ever-growing army of the undead;"
"Sir, you have to let go of that button."
"OH, SON OF A...!!"
Mr burns 😅😅
"Hello, mother. Hello, father. I missed you during my uneventful absence"
90 years old! Wow!
Dear Universal. Keep doing this. Restore this brilliant movies in 4K. Support physical media.
What an iconic scene
The spider spinning his web for the unwary fly.
The blood is the life,Mr.Renfield.
:D
Love this scene so much it always makes me grin. I like watching this movie but with friends I get a little embarrassed about how happy I am to see Lugosi on the screen 😅
English actor Ralph Fiennes has a similar facial structure, look and mimicry skills (Schindler's List, Anyegin). I think he would have been a good Dracula too.
The beauty of Dwight Fry’s performance is that he sees what a strange bird Dracula really is. Some of his stares at Dracula are classic. It’s like he’s thinking, “ who is this weirdo?” It even extends to Mina imitating Dracula’s accent to Lucy in London. They don’t take him seriously until the biting starts. This ironic sense of humor is what the Spanish version sorely lacks.
Beautiful black and white. That stare is amazing.
The speech is so musical
The creepy effect is enhanced when dialogue and sound effects break the silence. Music would ruin the sustained atmosphere this movie generates so brilliantly.
The sets here are epic and look even better in HD
It's disconcerting to realize that more time has passed since I first saw DRACULA on TV in 1970 than from the time the film was made to that initial viewing.😮
Re watching these scenes, it is easy to see where Gary Oldman gained his inspiration for his own, excellent portrayal of the immortal Count.
I got the movie on DVD. Plus the 1979 remake with Frank Langella.
If it weren't for Bela Lugosi playing Dracula, there would never have been a Barnabas Collins, or Dark Shadows on TV at all in 1966. Dracula is the king of all vampires, and Barnabas Collins, is the descendant, that came after.
Listen to them.....children of the night...... what music they make
"Bela Lugosi IS Dracula." - My Romanian grandparents
Other kids watched Transformers or GI Joe, maybe even My Little Pony.
I watched these films. I'm still mesmerized to this day by them.
Don't get me wrong. I watched Saturday morning cartoons. But right after cartoons came monster movies, Three Stooges shorts, and Kung Fu movies. THOSE are what I anticipated all week long to see
Bela 😍
Browning ransacked his own earlier work for ideas ; preliminary set sketches by the designer John Ivan Hoffman are obviously based on production stills of Cedric Gibbons ' settings for London After Midnight . The director based his conception of Dracula's wives on actress Edna Tichenor's makeup as Lunette , the bat - girl in the same film , and as a final , perhaps tongue - in - cheek private joke , imported a passel of armadillos to scurry around the great hall of Dracula's castle , just as they had patrolled the shadows of Chaney's creepy house four years earlier .
Regarding London after midnight, Forrest J Ackerman , one of the country's leading collectors of fantasy - film memorabilia , saw the film as a boy in San Francisco during its initial release , and likened Chaney's bizarre , scuttling posture to a macabre variation on Groucho Marx . The late horror writer Robert Bloch , who also saw the film as a child , recalled one of Browning's oddest bits of atmosphere : a pride of scurrying armadillos , hardly indigenous to London , but glimpsed nonetheless through the cobwebs of the vampire's mansion .
Confound it!! This film is sooo iconic, Bela Lugosi is incredible charming! Once It has become a reason why I started learning Romanian.
Dracula!!
Nice to see such a high quality original screen version boosted with a bit of contrast. No one liked the original anyway. My favourite part so far has been the smoothing in the midtones and noise in the highlights. When you see the face, the shadows are perfectly smooth and the lit parts of the face keep the noise and sharpen the hell out of it. Nice work.
Love his "R's"😊
Awesome!🤩🩸🩸🩸🩸❣
Will it have the Philip glass score? The new score is INCREDIBLE and makes the movie so much better. And scarier. So much scarier. Watch it with the Phillip glass/kronos quartet score
AWESOME THANK YOU SO MUCH!
"I beed you velcome!"
Fantastic restoration. The amount of work put into this is hard to fathom. Without the background hiss, scratches or frame jumps, it looks pristine.
A very subtle touch many people miss his when Dracula walks up the stairs through the Spiderwebs without disrupting them That Was the point in which Renfield should’ve left saying nope nope nope This guy is too weird home office is going to Have to send somebody else To finish this real estate deal with this guy not me
Noone missed that.
I always get a kick out of the Armadillos and Opossums in this film, even though they aren't native to Transylvania, we have a lot of them in Texas.
Lmao exactly what i was thinking
It’s good, but I also enjoy it with the Philip Glass score
The Glass score is intrusive, it can drown out the dialog.
Disagree
I disagree. Although the score is good, it's too modern for a 30s movie.
The lack of music makes it more immersive and creepy.
Bela Lugosi ... I L
This movie still very much olds up for being a hundred years old
Apparently some vampires can transform into armadillos
Part of what makes all movies like this great is, what’s not going on
"I am Dracoola" :D
Bella should be good at doing Dracula he did a thousand times in the theater
Bauhaus brought me here!🤘🏽😈🤘🏽
Amazing scenes
Had to look this up after getting a qyestion about it in Shovelware's Brian Game
Dracula: *Sees that Renfield has a cut and gets turned on by it*
Geniuses often have cluttered residences..
1:16 Why are there Armadillos here ?
Best Dracula
I was Dracula about 5 Halloweens in a row as a kid
This certainly is one of the Dracula movies - not to mention an example from the whole Universal Monsters gallery - I've really longed Konami had managed to fully acquire rights to create their own version of whole Castlevania franchise based on the former. Like a parallel franchise for both niches to draw the same amount of inspiration and detail from one another. It'd certainly be a dream come true.😅
Well some elements were based loosely on these old movies in the games that came before IGA took over and gave the franchise more of a unique identity. As these films get older they get closer to becoming public domain. We’re getting close for this one.
Armadillos in Transylvania?
I have read the book but never actually seen the film
Am I going insane? I thought he cut his thumb on a knife while getting a piece of bread. I don’t remember this version. I must be nuts.
I think you're thinking of Nosferatu.
Si taglia il dito con il coltello nella versione di Dracula spagnolo del 1931
First seen in 1962. Unforgettable! Werewolf and Jeckle and Hyde somewhat complicated this genre. FRANKENSTEIN was (not sure) an improvement.
Couldn't begin to guess what the Countess of Polignac saw in England when they were supposed to have a second type of summer near Brussels Belgium or farther westward.
I am Dracula
When he said I bid you welcome, it would've cool when he turned he said "walk this way" like Igore.
This isn't Mel Brooks LOL
"my postillion has been struck by lightning"
This is historical footage.
4K Ultra HD? Hardly, I've seen DVD Rips that look better than this.
Who else is here after watching Renfield?
No,
Beautiful but why does he have armadillos though?
Was that a pair of armadillos I saw crawling around Dracula’s castle at 1:18?
Yes. I wonder why they're here.
I never drink... wine
Not sure why they can't fix the graininess by restoring it frame by frame.
At least the picture doesn't shake and I see minimal imperfections in the film itself.
Audio hiss is still present, dunno why that wasn't fixed either.
Graininess, Audio hiss? Its a film made in 1930.............you new to this? Its also unnaturally dark but you don't mention that? lol
1:16 rats, bats--armadillos?
I got a neca Dracula figure and just wanted to know why he wore a top hat cause it just seemed so goofy to me
i see how Bloodbourne was inspired by this
Nicholas Cage can imitate Dracula lol
Stuka
Whirlwind
Tiene la casa un poco descuidada
Peter Jackson needs to do the restoration to remove the hiss and smooth the grain. His AI software was used for The Beatles: Get Back on the 16mm original camera negatives and had them upscaled to 4K with no hiss and no grain.
Gio Ninja
Whos here after Renfield (2023)?
I am. I love how it was sort of crazy sequel to this.
Ce qui m'a toujours fait maré ces les gents qui disent ho en noir blanc ces vieux mais qu' elles bêtises . Aujourd'hui ils y pleins de films en couleurs qui sont zéro. Les chefs d oeuvres beaucoups sont en noir et blanc par exemple le king Kong original est en noir et blanc et à un moment ont la coloriser mais la j ai vraiment dit ont est bien une époque décadente a ce niveau là.
