    His bodyguard Bruno a real one. Love their genuine connection and friendship together. Helped him when he was poor without knowing who he was and all he wanted in returned was to be fed. Hard to find that type of friend.

      I too, was struck by their connection - all the way from their meeting, to the bitter end. Bruno would literally lay down & die, if Vlad willed it. Fiercely loyal, super-strong, determined to do right by him - he could trust him with his life & his son's life - they are truly great qualities, found only in a true friend.

And this is like " come, Țepeș, my Lord" and he is a true hero in my country because he fought thefts, traitorous and established peace. But I say....Let's not judge... the times were rough... he was traumatized...his brother was like converted into a sexual slave...his mother dead, his father killed.......My heart is near him. May God receive him and rest his soul for the prayers of his wife and the Romanian people thst still praise him until today ❤🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

    Vlad didn’t stop them at the gates of Vienna, he fought against the Ottomans in Romania, he won the first battle but lost the second in 17 June 1462. The siege of Vienna was in 1683 and the Ottomans lost the battle. The Chief Commander of the army that rescued Vienna was the Polish King, Jan Sobieski.

    Very interesting. It is my humble opinion, that while Dracula seem to have been vengeful and cruel in the way he treated his opponents, he also genuinely seem to have loved the people of Romania and seem to have been tried to save them from oppression.
    On the other hand there has been a power struggle between the Roman Church and the Eastern Orthodox church that played a major role in this, and eventually in his demise.
    to me all those legends about him being a vampire, etc were created by the church, as this has been one of the ways in which they asserted control over the ignorant/unenlightened populace.
    In my eyes he was just a human being, imperfect, but driven to help.
    What I am trying to say is that the Orthodox church condemned him for a political reason, which is not based in reality.
    They do not have the power to condemn a person to be undead. That is my take.
    In any event, thank you for sharing this and shedding light on this story, and how events turned into an unreal myth.

    Vladislav the third , Draculeşti home, Basarab house. Great depiction of the voevode of Wallachia.
    A real antihero of history!
    Rundolf Martin as Draculea is fantastic.

But he had a vision of indepedense and the Ottomans lurking in the shadows. Cruel times then. But to fulfil his vision he must desappear from his path the corruption that was in his land. And got the gutts to do it. His land was wealthy again without all the parasites. But Mehmed the Conqueror was so stubborn and envy to be defeated in his own war against the west And here, Radu the Fair, comes to play his role .

      @dimitrisnikoloulis4071 I never said Vlad was a Saint. He was a human who wanted his own people to survive the Ottomans attacks, to be free and safe.

      I think there were some Christians who hated Vlad even more than the Ottomans hated him. As I've Iearned in my childhood and then, years later, I've read by myself, those Christians are the ones reponsable for starting the myth of Vlad the Vampire. That myth has its origins even in Vlad's period of time (the second half of the X15-th century). Bram Stoker only exploited that original myth, because of some reasons I only can assume.
      Here I am refering to those German merchants and German political & administrative leaders from Brașov, Sibiu and few other trade centers (burgs) from Central Transylvania (all those Germans being known as ”sași” in Romanian language), people who lived during Vlad's rule over Wallachia. Those ”sași” were belonging to the Christian Catholic and/ or Protestant Churches, while Vlad was of Orthodox Christian faith.
      There are opinions that the same ”sași” leaders are responsable for his incarceration at the hands of Mattias Corvin, who was then ruling Transylvania.

    This movie is great. Vlad is a hero and a patriot. He is the Leader of all Romanian people.
    He is not a villain as it is said that Vlad drinks the blood of innocent.Any leader would have done the same to protect his country from invaders

      Same. The writing and acting is far better than you’d expect from a USA original. I’m especially impressed with how well paced it is and the use of the through-line of “walk with me” was used. Budget left a lot to be desired but it’s impressive they achieved what they did
