Kidskycom It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

SanEat A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

Derry Herrera Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

Smoreni Zmaj This movie is terribly underrated. Up to its time, Count Dracula by Jesus Franco is definitely the most faithful and the most convincing adaptation of Bram Stoker. Story wasn't identical, but it was the closest thing to original novel they made so far. Scenery, sound, directing, complete approach is strange and different than what we were used to see in this genre. Instead of fairytale-like, fantasy atmosphere typical for horrors those days, here we have illusion of real life. Cast is particularly striking. Count Dracula is played by legendary Christopher Lee, actor who appeared in about three hundred movies and who's played Dracula more times than anyone else. In 1970. he played Dracula four times and this is the only movie that shows Dracula with facial hair. Also, this is the first Dracula movie in which Dracula starts as old man and gets younger by drinking blood. Klaus Kinski, father of Nastassja Kinski and actor who left us around 150 movies (Marquis de Sade in Marquis de Sade's Justine, hunchback in For a Few Dollars More), nailed role of Reinfield although he has no lines at all. He entered the role of madman so deep that in scenes where Reinfield eats insects he ate real flies instead of fake ones. Some time after Reinfield becomes Dracula in 1979. Nosferatu the Vampyre. Role of Van Helsing was meant for Vincent Price, but it ended up with Herbert Lom (Chief Insp. Charles Dreyfus from Pink Panter series). And in the role of Lucy we have tragically deceased Soledad Miranda, beautiful member of "Club 27". Although very unusual for its genre, or maybe exactly because of it, this movie left strong impression on me.8/10

migsly This movie would've been a great if:(1) Dracula had worn a cape (2) Peter Cushing had played Van Helsing (3) the music were more appropriate. Without a cape, Count Dracula just isn't Count Dracula. The man who played Van Helsing is too robotic. The voice is emotionless and unappealing. Where was Peter Cushing??And that music is more appropriate for a Kung Fu movie. I know it was 1970 when the sitar was popular but it just ruined this movie.Everything else is grand. I would never watch it again though.

GusF Known in English simply as "Count Dracula", this is a very uninspired and rather badly made film. After the 1931 Bela Lugosi version, the 1958 Hammer version and the 1979 Frank Langella version, this is the fourth adaptation of the 1897 Bram Stoker novel that I have seen in the last ten months, notwithstanding the numerous sequels to the first two. Of those four, I understand that this is the most faithful to the novel - which I have never actually read - but it's also by far the weakest of them.The film's version of Dracula is not terribly intimidating. While Christopher Lee is good as the eponymous count, his performances in the Hammer series were far more entertaining. Herbert Lom made for a very good Van Helsing and he deserved to appear in a much better adaptation than this, though I preferred Peter Cushing and Laurence Olivier's takes on the character. None of the other actors made much impression one way or the other. I'm not entirely sure but I get the impression that most of them were dubbed. The film is rather low budget but that wouldn't have been a big problem if Jesus Franco had directed it with any sort of flair, art or imagination - all three of which were lacking in the extreme - rather than making every other shot a zoom shot. I assume that he had made a bet to see how many he could fit into the film. It's a bog standard version of "Dracula", I'm afraid. When it comes to great horror directors, he's no Terence Fisher, who directed the aforementioned 1958 film and most of the other top tier Hammer films.Overall, the film is deathly dull and mostly forgettable except for two things that I've already mentioned. It's always a pleasure to see either Lee or Lom in a film but it would have been a far greater pleasure to see them in a good film.
