Dracula: The Original Living Vampire

The acting was terrible. The storyline was just an excuse for showing boobs. Did I mention terrible acting. Don't waste your time. This movie used the names in the original Dracula but had none of the excitement, intelligence or suspense. Garbage.

What was Michael Ironside thinking when agreeing to be in this movie.

Absolutely terrible. Horrible special effects. Terrible acting. This should never have been made. This is a insult to not only the Dracula story but also cinema as a whole.

Avoid like the plague.

Wooden acting, predictable script, dire direction. Why, just why, that's all I was left asking myself. Dracula has such potential, yet to be fully realized.

I'm not suprised the 3 young ones haven't worked since this movie, it's terrible. I would like to 1 star it.

Ironside is Ironside, plank like, he must have done this to relieve boredom or for pocket money.

The story line has nothing new to add to the countless Dracula movies that have been done over the years. From that standpoint there's really no need to watch. There are a couple of aspects that raise it above a one-star movie. First, the set designs were actually good. With a few notable exceptions things seemed pretty consistent with a late 19th century setting it claimed to be. The telephone and electric fan, though old, were not that old. Second, for a cast of mostly no-name actors, the acting wasn't the worst I've seen. No future Oscar winners here, but the acting wasn't bad enough to be a distraction.
