    At the time of the show, the newspaper reported that the audience was shocked and fainted, so it became a selling point. Within 48 hours, 50,000 tickets were sold in a theater in New York. The film is adapted from a Broadway stage play adapted from a novel, and a lot of inspiration comes from the Munummer film "Nosferatu" (1922). A storm at sea is taken from the universal silent film "The Storm Breaker" (1925), and the screen changes from 16 frames per second in silent films to 24 frames per...

    Why do some of you feel bored? I think it's very good-looking. I didn't even notice when I watched it. There is no soundtrack but only dialogue. In the old movie, the special effects are actually very good, and the acting skills of the actors are also very good. Dracula is really handsome. Ah, this temperament is simply compelling, I really...

    When we look at Dracula again in this day and age, perhaps more attention will be paid to the stylized performances, photography, and sets. But in 1931, it was definitely "the most chilling, truly scary movie ever made", and in black and white light and shadow, Count Dracula's darker and spookier eyes in tiny speckles remain Cast a chilling...

    Much worse than the Murnau...

    Watching while taking a nap, sleepy eyes in Gothenburg, waking up with tooth marks on the neck, I don’t know if it’s a dream or a...

    All subsequent vampire movies should be grateful for this one. Without it, the subsequent vampire image may remain in the ugly horror for decades... But having said that, the dracula image of this meeting is quite a stick.. completely. There is no inner drama...makes vampires a bit too simplistic...but the vampires in Stoke's novels are probably the...

    Lugosi had a powerful presence and authority onscreen. The slow, deliberate pacing of his performance gave Dracula the air of a walking, talking corpse. the many closeups of Lugosi's face in icy silence. shadow narration, the ending a bit hasty &...

    1. Not as good as Murnau and Herzog's [Nosferatu]. 2. Bella Lugosi created the charming and elegant image of Dracula, which complements the [Swan Lake] in the opening of the movie, and the earl’s staring way is very charming. 3. Expressionist scenery: the cobwebs in the castle, the dense fog everywhere, the miniature spotlight aimed at Lugosi's eyes. 4. Anti-climax ending: the earl’s groaning voice-over reveals his fate. 5. Mirror shadow that can't be reflected....

    In fact, this is very simple, I have seen the scene of hanging a bat on a rope...it should be digitally restored. But the old actors are still very...

    Comment on this play

    Some time ago, I watched the three-part documentary "The History of Horror Movies" released by the BBC this year. This set of documentaries does not take the rendering of horror as a selling point, but a rigorous and almost academic attitude, and discusses the development history, style evolution...

    Elegant and charming vampire

    The film deliberately omitted many storylines that should have been clearly explained to the audience, such as why Earl Dracula left Trafania and came to far away London, and how Earl Dracula sucked blood and made the vampires enslaved by him. of. I think this does not fit the viewing habits of...
