This movie was an instant classic. The use of practical effects was second to none and blows away any CGI effects.

Wow! I had no idea. Those glass matte paintings are amazing. I am even more impressed with this movie and Coppola now.

the werewolf make up on gary oldman was absolutely fantastic looking.

This instantly became one of my favorite movies. Visually this is one of if not the most impressive movie I have ever seen. It is so surreal, truly dream like.

I went to see the Coppola version on a wide screen and slept throughout as I was so tired, I saw it again some time later, loved it. Four years ago I wanted to Watch it again and decided to buy the dvd but on walking the dogs the SAME night I found a brand new copy lying on the pavement !! creepy !

That train station shot....some of the best matte painting I've ever seen.

this movie deserve more and more success.

What a tremendous accomplishment……such attention to detail. A beautiful movie!

This movie, for all that it has and despite Keanu's performance, is a masterpiece

C.G will never live up to the amazing results of practical effects !!

"so I fired them" And proceeded to knock it out of the fucking park.

Wow, that was such a ballsy move, to fire all your special fx crew and hire someone so inexperienced? Turned out to be the best decision Coppola made!!!

I absolutely adore this movie loved it so much when I originally saw it I went to the ticket counter and bought another ticket immediately watched it again Gary oldmans performance was insane can't say enough about how great it is

I never realised how lucky I’ve been to have seen this film in the cinema (when it was first released). Great documentary about its VFX. You make really interesting videos. Thank you. This was really fascinating. 👍👍

One of my absolute favorite films filled with practical effects. I bet this was quite an influence on Peter Jackson and the LOTR

What a cool behind-the-scenes. This made me appreciate the film even more.

I saw the Warrens on American Pickers. They pulled out the miniature train used in Dracula. Great video and discussion of the in camera special effects. When I saw it in the theater it became my favorite horror film. Coppola is one of the greatest filmmakers that has ever lived. I'm glad he got what he wanted on this show.

Thank you so much, I really enjoyed this video! Francis Ford Coppola's "Dracula" is one my absolute favorite movies, and I love practical special effects! 😍👍👏

i love this movie

Superb.

I had no idea that they went this far, thank you for sharing it!

This breakdown is absolutely astonishing, It deserves much more views! More videos like this, please! Greetings from Brazil!

Great and interesting dive into the making of the special effects of this movie!

Great video! Thanks for posting, a truly great film that because of the way it was filmed probably is the reason the film is timeless.. a true classic.

I’ve watched this movie many times (including being fortunate to have seen it upon release on the big screen), but I had never noticed the in-camera effect seen in the background of the shot from 17:06 - I’ll have to look out for that next time I watch it! Any movie that continues to give up new secrets each time you watch it (especially decades later) is a gift.

Though I had heard about a lot of this already, this was a nice step-by-step explanation and analysis, with some info I did not know. This is also my favorite version of Dracula from the acting to the great juxtaposition of beautifully romantic imagery (that's never syrupy) with graphic violent horror (that's not done for it's own sake). The interviews were a great addition. Some of them I'd never seen before. P.S. the one digital effect that was used in this movie was not mentioned. The morphing effect (at the time still emerging) that was used for when, in one shot, the dying Vlad Dracula transforms from his demonic form back to his human form before asking Mina to "give [him] peace." There was no other way to do it.

Love this

THIS is filmmaking for me, not this "We film a blue wall and add everything later in the computer"-crap you get nowadays.

Wonderful video and a tribute to such a great masterpiece! I remember when it went out in cinema, it was a great horror experience and looking back from now I had no idea that entire movie was shot in studio with such detailed practical effects. Thank you very much!

The greatest special effect was Keanu Reeves' reading of the line "Music? Those beasts!". Very special.

Very informative. Really enjoyed this. Thanks.

i would like to see these technikes used even in modern movies now, would be really great

eu nunca tinha ouvido falar desse filme e estou instantaneamente fascinado

I love CG hell I’m learning it but I do love the hands on practical stuff looks fuckin amazing

Awesome !

That's awesome..

congratulations for the channel and for showing off the awesome special effects of this movie... I would have liked to see how they did the scenes with the "green fog"...

Nice! 🦇⚰️🦇

This is what art can make, it is nothing like the cheesy movies of today!

The way you pronounced Wojcier Kilar made me realized yoiu must speak polish ;) awesome!

Filme Epico, Dracula de Bram Stoker esse sim e fiel ao livro, um filme de terror sensacional, show de bola

Great vidéo ! 👍

5:07 …. Yes you can. You always could. It was always obvious, but I thought it added charm to the dark fairytale. Even when I first saw it around the age of 10 I could see it looked like a stage.

Film Drakula paling keren sepanjang masa. Harus ada reuni lagi mumpung seluruh pemainnya masih eksis, terutama Keanu Reeves, Winona Rider, dan Anthony Hopkins - karena ending kisah dari film ini baru selesai pada Gary Oldman, sementara kelanjutan ending kisah Winona dan Keanu perlu dialjutkan.

Me too
