REVIEW:
I saw this trailer a while back, and I have been waiting and waiting for it to arrive in the US. When it finally did, I dragged Hubby to the couch to make him watch this with me. I looove a good Dracula film!
Here we have Dracula, who was a prince in the 15th-century. He killed and did many bad things in the name of God. The only thing he asked for was protection for his wife. Well...she was murdered and died in his arms, so he turned his back on God, which in turn God gave him an eternal curse. Condemned to never die and to drink blood for survival. He hopes his beloved will be reincarnated since she was of a pure soul. 400 years later...he has found her and no one will stop him from reclaiming his love.
What a lovely cast. What a lovely story. I really, really enjoyed it. The guy who played Dracula was amazing.
This rendition certainly played up the love story and made this more of a romance. Still some horror elements, but certainly more romantic.
That last scene literally broke me. SOO good. SOO perfect.
No issues for me. Hubby said he liked it, but he thought it had some weird elements. I disagree. I liked the change-ups.
We have the romance and the horror. We also were given splashes of comedy that made me smile.
I'll give this 5 stars. I want to watch it again!
I'm always looking for something good to watch. Thanks for the recommendation!
