seriously people are totally underrating marc warren's performance. Ok, so he's not the cliched typically handsome character. Which is what makes him so good. Guys reviewing this will not understand how intriguing we find him with his gorgeous voice and delicate eye movements which just make him so sexy and make him perfect for the character.
Even though Bela Lagosi comes to my mind first when I think of Dracula Marc Warren will always be my Dracula. He played the role perfectly, I mean listen to that lovely voice and look at those beautiful eyes! I wouldn't mind him caressing my throat like he does to Mina and Lucy :)
The direction and script are terrible. Shame, as Marc is a great actor. I wish he'd go big. I've not seen a lot of his stuff, but he blew me away as Mr. Teatime.
It was quite shocking yet compelling & acceptable to Victorian audiences of the era who managed to see it, as it revealed their hidden repressed darkest inhibited desires of lust from a foreign count who gets defeated by the holy in the end, so it was approved of, since the aristocratical source of "evil" came from abroad in Transylvannia, after Vlad Dracule Tepes (Dracula meaning Devil in Romanian) Stoker followed much from the Hungarian Countess Elizabeth Bathory - the original vampire.
Bram Stoker wrote Dracula in Victorian era to show the xenophobia of the English - the aristocratic, enigmatic, charming, dark Count coming from abroad to upset the sensibilties of a sexually suffocating and religiously oppressed English society.
Again thoroughly unfaithful to Stokers book. I'm still waiting for a genuine adaptation of Dracula. This was a pretty cheap production, and Marc Warren didn't convince me.
i am a dracula freak ! i like dracula [1931] horror of dracula , dracula prince of drakness , dracula rises from the grave , dracula [1979] , scars of dracula , count dracula [1977] dracula 2000 and van helsing [2004] i like the old dracula movies with bela lugosi and christopher lee the best . Dracula is my idol !
Marc Warren is Amazing as Dracula he played him exactly as he was portrayed in Bream Stokers novel unlike all the other 'Dracula's' with their accents and their gelled back hair
Um, I thought he didn't drink....wine....as the saying goes....!!! And here is is, clutching a nice glass of something wine like, sipping away to his content.....
"Nice" background on your channel. No wonder you like creepy characters. Hihi. And if you have the possibilities try to talk to a Romanian history professor. He/she is the most qualified person to clear the errors that you believe in. Bonus, Romania is gaining big bucks by speculating this myth. Many suckers go to that country to see "Dracula". They should rather go to the Danube Delta, an UNESCO natural monument.
Still a fairytale (dracula)! Sleep tight and sweet dreams! P.S. At least Romanians know how to make money on this myth, speculating the ingenuity of others. Haha! P.S. again: before giving me thumbs down (thanks so much), I ask you who the real Dracula is. Clue: a female figure from Hungarian history.
actually, Dracula is a real figure, he lived in 15th century Wallachia, he was a cruel prince and thanks to that he was given a nickname the Impaler
Stoker took some things from his biography and some from Countess Bathory (e.g. title 'count' because true Vlad was a prince), but he was as cruel as Elizabeth, even more
he used to have his dinners in the fields of thousands of impaled rotten bodies he also
Count Dracula is fictional. Vlad was a Rumanian ruler, very just. He impaled those who did not obey the law (murderers etc). He standed for his people against the Hungarian and Turkish claims. He did not eat surrounded by impaled bodies. You are naive. And you can't compare him to Elisabeth Batory. She took the blood out of virgins in order to bathe in it. She is the real Dracula, not Vlad. You have an F to history. Read more.
I'm far from giving u any lessons, I just share the informations I have and I've read and watched many documentaries about his 'bloody dinners' and if u wish u could send me some information that say it wasn't the truth.
And countess Bathory? U should also read more about her. Legends as u have said are not enough. I have an F? PROVE!
The Internet is full about mistakes and exaggerations about Vlad. It is almost impossible to find serious history on the internet. Especially in English. Try to go to a university library and ask a serious historic book about him.
No, I am trying to offend you. It was merely a typing error. Quit being so suspicious. You don't have different opinions. You simply show your gaps regarding Eastern Europe history. You believe myths, but you did not read serious history. Many westerners developed legends aboud Vlad. The historical truth is completely different. But, believe what you like. Read more serious history about that Hungarian "woman".
ok ok, left Elizabeth, I've read a lot about her and her family and giving her a label of vampire is too simple for me
now, u said Vlad was nevwr dining among impaled and wasn't so bad (according to u Bathory was) and I have an evidence he was, this is a web page where infos provided by the woman(Elizabeth Russell Miller is Professor Emeritaat Memorial University of Newfoundland) that is well known by people who are interested in Tepes story
I pleaded my case. It is up to you if you believe serious history or some speculatiosn. Who wrote that he was dining surrounded by corps? Maybe his Turkish enemies spread these rumors, because he opposed their oppression. Vlad was not bad, he was just. He fought for the independence of his country and history is in debt to him for opposing the Ottoman Empire. Read about the Ottoman Empire and its wrong doing.
This could be a scene from Wuthering Heights. Marc Warren ought to make a good Heathcliff. And the other young gentleman ought to make a good Edgar Linton.

What a stupidity! Count Dracula has never existed! It is a legend. The true monster was that evil woman, called Elisabeth Bathory. Why do people prefer stories instead of the truth?
Marc Warren was so good in this role. He played Dracula without being too over the top sex appeal like other versions of the character. He acted dangerous and creepy as well wich is a key aspect of the character.
