Bram Stoker's Dracula is one of my favorite movies. Not only is it somewhat spooky with many elements of a horror film, but it is also a gothic type dark love story. Very enjoyable.

Yeah, Gary Oldman was a excellent actor for Dracula. I liked Keanu Reeve's performance as well

Indeed, they both did an amazing job in that movie, as well as Winona Ryder!

Lots of blood and stuff Yeah, our teacher had to skip some bits that were not suitable to show I was really wondering what teacher was crazy enough to show that movie to 14 year olds... until I read about the skipping part. I never watched the entire movie, just around 1/3 of it I think, it was interesting. For once I do disagree about Keanu's performance, specially about the english accent he was trying to show up. However I have read the book and just some weeks ago I've bought it in English, to read the original. Dracula and it's legend it's something so very familiar around here. Btw guys (time to brag): in the movie, they speak Romanian ;D I was pleasantly surprised.

Gary Oldman was good, but you can't beat Christopher Lee, the ultimate Dracula, but then some might disagree and plump for Bella Legosi. I didn't rate Keanu's performance either, it was terrible, but then i don't watch him for his acting.
