For the Halloween season of 2023, my review on the 2023 adaptation of 'The Captain's Log' chapter in Bram Stoker's Dracula, The Last Voyage of the Demeter.

(*Originally uploaded on YouTube on 10/31/2014 as part of my 'Halloween Season of 2014' special*) My review the 1992 Bram Stoker's Dracula.

Vor rund 30 Jahren enthüllten zwei Wissenschaftler aus Boston die Geschichte, die hinter dem legendären Vampir Dracula steckt. Ihre Forschungen dauerten 15 Jahre und sie zeigen eine Verbindung zwischen Bram Stoker’s berüchtigtem Vampir und einem rumänischen Prinzen aus dem 15. Jahrhundert mit dem Namen Vlad Tepes oder “Vlad der Pfähler”. Was die beiden Professoren Radu Florescu und Raymond McNally damals heraus fanden, sorgte in der ganzen Welt für Schlagzeilen.

A Hammer horror film based on Bram Stoker's novel "The Jewel of Seven Stars." Director Seth Holt died of a heart attack five weeks into the six week shoot, collapsing into cast member Aubrey Morris's arms and dying on set. Michael Carreras directed the final week's filming.

The first movie about Bram Stoker's Dracula. A trur horror classic that is silent yet still very creepy and expressionistic. You won't find a movie like this being made today.

Nosferatu is a silent movie from 1922 and loosly based on Bram Stoker's vampire classic, Dracula. For further information on this film go to: http://steve-calvert.co.uk/pub-dom/nosferatu1922.htm

Although there have been numerous versions of Bram Stoker’s classic tale, none is more enduring than the 1931 original. The ominous portrayal of Count Dracula by Béla Lugosi, combined with horror specialist director Tod Browning, help to create the film’s eerie mood. ‘Dracula’ remains a masterpiece not only of the genre, but for all time.

Song: Black No. 1 by Type O Negative. Films used are Bram Stoker's Dracula, Dracula 2000, Queen of the Damned, Underworld, and Underworld Evolution

(IMDB.COM Description) An unauthorized production of Bram Stoker's work (The legal heirs didn't give their permission), so the names had to be changed. But this wasn't enough: The widow of Bram Stoker won two lawsuits (1924 and 1929) in which she demanded the destruction of all copies of the movie, however happily copies of it were already too widespread to destroy them all. Later, Universal studios could break her resistance against this movie. Count Orlok's move to Wisburg (Obviously the real "Wismar") brings the plague traceable to his dealings with the Realtor Thomas Hutter, and the Count's obsession with Hutter's wife, Ellen the only one with the power to end the evil.

F. W. Murnau's silent vampire classic. The first (and in my opinion, best) film adaptation of Bram Stoker's novel "Dracula". In the public domain.

Dracula the musical by Evans, Orton and Lynn. The musical of Bram Stoker's novel, Dracula. Sang de Vie Productions presents the video of the song 'Within My World' from the new Dracula musical; featuring Michael McCarthy as Dracula and Danielle York as Mina. The Dracula musical CD is available to buy from CD Baby, Dress Circle (London), Sound of Music store (Germany), iTunes and many other online stores.

F.W. Murnau's adaption of Bram Stoker's Dracula is a masterpiece and one of the earliest examples of the horror genre. Many of the genre conventions employed here live on today - the slow moving murderous villain, the screaming and seemingly paralized damsel. Remade by Werner Herzog in 1979.
