(Review originally written at 22 July 2003)
Excellent Dracula version the unfortunately hasn't stand the test of time.
The pace is a bit too slow for my taste and there just doesn't happen enough. The sets are also outdated and don't look very convincing. However the excellent cast compensates allot.
Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee are simply perfect in their roles, even though Christopher Lee's role as Dracula is smaller then you'd expect. Especially the scene's with Christoper Lee alone are a feast to watch and hear.
The story has very few surprises for those who are already familiar with the Dracula story but the movie still has some nice and suspenseful moments.
So mainly because of the cast, a very good Dracula version that is worth seeing!
8/10
