Dracula 1931: Movie Review
Dracula (1931) I recently for the first time, watched the 1931 Dracula and here are my thoughts on it. While I am very familiar like many others with the character of Dracula, he's been featured in many movies, TV shows and commercials for decades. The character usually has a thick Transylvanian accent and usually says something about wanting to suck blood. He wears a cape and always hides when the sun comes out. Even Sesame Street has a Muppet called Count Von Count! So the character of Count Dracula is familiar to all ages. I've never read Bram Stoker's Dracula either so anything I've ever seen has been later versions of movies or shows. Bela Lugosi is probably best known as portraying the title lead. He was originally in the stage production and was in his mid 40s when he was cast in the film version. Dracula is one of the earlier Universal Pictures films that began cranking out other horror hits like Frankenstein and The Mummy ....
