Oh, Count, Pardon me, but you seem to have a spot of jam on your face. Napkin?

"Oh, hi Drack. Just a sec. Got an angry mob to deal with here."

He did know Dracula was a vampire

@@user-rl2rw3tp6s yeah he just didn't know his evil plan

​@@user-rl2rw3tp6s then why was he surprised to see that dracula just walked onto the sword like nothing

Yep, I came here specifically to grab the clip of: "I could never allow him to be used for such evil..." "I could." Only a few seconds later than the feel free line, but same kind of delivery. Dracula truly is an evil monster and he sees absolutely nothing wrong with it. No pity, no remorse, he's an uncaring, heartless abomination and he's totally okay with that because he doesn't have the ability to have a conscience or feel bad about it. They honestly did a surprisingly good job of making him come across as truly awful, but he's not really malicious in the sense of wanting to harm others, he just has his personal goals is all and if they happen to harm others, well that's just too bad, their problem, not his. It actually makes him a strangely well-written villain, because it requires the constant reinforcement of the idea that he doesn't hurt anyone for personal pleasure, it's always to serve some other goal, and even the townspeople realized that and used it as a defense. Yeah, sure, one or two people may go missing every few months, but that's actually a fairly slow attrition rate compared to dealing with armies and wars, and the vampires make it so no army wants to go anywhere near there, so they actually kind of view it as a good thing.

So true

He looks like an aging emo band member or an MCR reject. This design choice makes the vampires of Twilight look like masterpieces. Just awful.

I was once hated it, But now I love the shit out of it. Anyway I agree This Dracula is awesome also his Brides are so hot in this movie for sure.

@@OilFreeFeathers excuse me? these vampires are exactly what they need to be they are monsters, a vampire is undead devoid of life and bare in emotion

Without any doubts the best, sleekest and fancy Dracula ever - perfect as he should be!

This would have been a brilliant kick off to the Dark Universe. It's dissapointing they just rehashed The Mummy instead.

But I liked it. 😓

@@number1connieconversefan This was made back when film trilogies were the big thing. Modern cinematic universes really started more or less with Marvel and not until 2012 really.

Honestly critics ruin everything

I think a big problem was the budget (160 Million) theres clearly interest in a project like this but they should really keep the budgets under 100 million

A true monster is not defined by appearance alone, but also it's inability to voice or empathize with the pain others endure. Frankenstein was no monster.

@@emeraldtabbycat148 As I recall, the creation never was a monster - but an imperfect and tormented soul. He is created, the world hates him and tries to kill him. He tries to love, and is hated and spurned in return. That pain's impact on his soul is what is truly engaging to see explored in the different versions of the stories.

I understand. The true monsters were the ones who couldn't see past his monstrous visage. Couldn't see the sad, wounded soul within.

Reminds me to Serj Tankian ahaha

Because the actor is an opera performer.

Monsters are misunderstood just like humans. We are alike in more ways than we are different.

And this is thE best incorporated monster idea ever!

Shooting something in b&w === being the mosr utterly spectacular masterful genius great splendid master of all times

Dracula and his beautiful brides for one.

Some things don't need learning

The best father of the year goes to Dr Frankenstein. He died while protecting his son

Frankenstein was a better dad in the first 5 minutes of this movie than he was in the entire book

@@danny_decheeto8300 tbh the creature (Frankestein's monster) was really demanding in the book and a tad malicious.

@@The-Deadite fair nuff

@@zcgamerandreacts2762 it’s actually a fun twist from the book. In the novel Frankenstein adores his creation right up to its animation, seeing it as a perfect being, but after it takes its first breath his perspective shifts and he views it superficially as an abominable wretch. Of course the irony of that being that Victor’s monster was more human than himself. Instead of that this movie portrays victor as legitimately caring. I can only assume the monster from this portrayal is just as intelligent as in Mary Shelly’s original novel, and in the book the creature begins to speak fluently only about a 9 months into his life, if that rate of understanding remains relatively constant the creature could have been one of the most intelligent beings to ever live. Fun to think abt.

I rather to watch this instead of the 2017 Mummy.

And this movie was directed by the same man who directed the The Mummy remake and its sequel. In my opinion, that series and this film share a universe. The REAL Dark Universe.

True.

Other way around

Needed and deserved

What if Dracula and the Mummy had a buddy cop movie were they wrapped up criminal cases? :D

Why couldn't you make the monster movies I wish you did

@Philip D'Alleva Yeah, Van Helsing would be a key player, introduced in the Dracula movie. His mission is to protect the innocent, and destroy all monsters. Therefor he's at odds with Larry Talbot, who is cursed to be the wolfman. Larry's watched over by the fortuneteller, Maleva, who tells him to seek out Doctor Frankenstein, who may be able to cure him. Frankenstein is name dropped in the Dracula movie as one of Dracula's investments other than carfax abbey. After the mob attacks, he is constantly on the run, changing his name and wearing disguises. His loyalties lie with Dracula at first, due to his funding being provided by Dracula, but he later switches sides. I think Igor should be a scheming, immortal man like his original appearance, rather than the hunchback servant (who was named Fritz in the original). Igor has his own plans that go against Dracula, Van Helsing, and Larry. A 4 way battle of wits ensues, full of deals, betrayals, and heartbreak.

TokuTickler I’m making a video series on this very topic, My Friend

A version of Mr Hyde that's a combination of him and Frankenstein's Monster would be interesting.

The critics man, those pansy assholes ruin what would have been a pretty cool line of movies following this first one

Far from a masterpiece, but it's still a fun movie.

Visually, this movie was stunning. Had cool cgi and designs but had a bad plot and too many characters.

@@morgumal literally had the best dracula monster and werewolf design though.

The Alpha Draconians can't enter the planet anymore.

You mean, on the fireplace mantel

And the fact that he cried out "why?" and was sad that the doctor his father was dead.

That made the scene! Who was the real monster here. They chased him down and set the building on fire only to have the “monster” question why they would do that to him since he had done nothing to them at that point.

@@dinoflagella4185 correct.

Frankenstein is actualy the surname of the creator of this monster, if you don't know.

@@dinoflagella4185 Well think of it like this. How did Dr Frankenstein make his "Monster"? He dug up the graves and stole body parts from the deceased from the villages. He disturbed the final resting place of these peoples loved ones to create this creature. Yes the Creature itself is innocent, but to these people, the bodies of their loved ones have been violated and butchered all for a mad-mans desire to play god. Anyone would be angry about that.

i know right?? watching this again, i just noticed this movie had a lot of great artistic direction, the black n whites, the silhouettes, the character & weapon designs, its so underrated

They nailed the old universal monster tone

Also the black and white effect made it even better

What are you even talking about?

@@JD-re3cj He’s clearly referring to the shot of Dr. Frankenstein pulling the sword out of Dracula and lifting it in the air before succumbing to his wounds.

But he had to fix his hair mainly

Gattsu Brando They prolly made a puppet first then scanned it

D &D is dungeons and dragons right?

@@Reyna_Amaturi Yes :)

Castlevania did it better, I think.

Try Legacy of Kain

Curs of strahd my dude

I don't blame you. I saw this movie over a decade ago and the way he says it and how heartbroken he is before falling. For me it always seemed like was more worried about his father than himself. Truly heartbreaking to watch and that scream is so sad

Short-range teleportation is actually one of Dracula's abilities from the book -- once he knows exactly where his destination is and how to get there.

@@filthycasual8187 I’ve read the book, but forgot that.

I agree

Megalon73 I love this movie since childhood even though i was scared at beginning of this movie at first

Screw the critics. They are retarded.

I couldn't agree more 👍👍👍

I consider myself a person who really values quality films, but I sure enjoyed the hell out of this one. From the very start to finish. Amazing and fun, ain't no critics that could change my perception of this masterpiece (in it's own way)

Dracula: Well... That was inconvenient. Time to fly & retrieve what's mine.

@02091992able that was his coat, not his shirt

Well, mere flames don’t kill a vampire.

@@jackleighton1566 not even if the vampire was burnt in sunlight?

@@scotthamp384 God what a party crusher .... loser take the fucking joke!!!!

Hyde was the best part of the remake the rest fails in comparison

wait you talking Tom cruise or Brendan fraser

@@xxiSHTAr9000x tom cruise

If this was their entry for dark universe it would have fared better than the mummy remake.

Yeah

And Igor 🤣

The designs are great in this movie

& subtly @3:22

But why he called him father? That dr was working for dracula against frankenstein

@@farjanaakter6255 his brain hasn't developed after being born. But after the knowledge kicks in, he becomes smart later on.

@@jasminnemcdonald94A ok

I genuinely cant tell if your joking or not.

@@funtimewithnickandfriends1998 I mean it was pretty accurate, and it was done well

Y'all haven't seen the Hallmark miniseries

It's a fun homage to multiple versions before it, including nods to the book for sure. Faithful in aspects of personality to the book but ultimately far from it.

If the movie stayed like this, I would have loved it. But it became an action movie more than a horror movie.

I wish I could have seen it in the theatte

I wish I could’ve seen it too in theaters

Kaz haan:Count it's just you.

Richard Roxburgh. You wouldn't believe he's the same actor who played the Duke in _Moulin Rouge!._ He's not about much these days.

@@DoctorInk20 yeah and he’s provided voiceover for at least 4 kids’ animated films and was in Sanctum, Hawke, Breath and The Owls of Ga’Hoole.

He is an Australian actor and is still quite active here.

Note the empties. That guy had a liver too powerful for this earth

@@Deadlock239 It was Oliver Reed.

@@fromthecheapseats7126 he and Richard Harris used the windmill as a hotel during their Eastern European booze cruises

Damn strait

Seriously underrated.

Still is an awesome movie

Critics disagree. But then again, viewers disagree with the critics.

Underrated movie for sure. It also managed to bring in the most badass looking Werewolves I can think of

Had to run it back several times, but NICE CATCH!

It's often like Benjamin Franklin says when a man earns more money he will cry for even more money so yeah money kinda do buy loyalty

Melvin Stolthjärta i see your point, i really do. but it is still funny that igor is willing to betray his friend just because someone is paying him.

They live in the 1800's, if you can buy a bride then you can buy loyalty.

Igor is Jew

You can't buy loyalty because that contradicts the definition. Igor simply had none.

I always looked at this movie as a prequel to the mummy movie

@I'm just a dog "AS I WAS SAYING, VICTOR..."

"You sly dog, you got me monologuing!"

The pain of losing his father

Rare to see both victor frankenstein and his creation be good people.

@@rdr2v1nce7he’s still a grave robber though hence the mob. If he was using prostitutes he’d killed the peasants would have probably been like yeah fair enough he’s doing God’s work.

No. He was curious

Someone needs to make a black and white version of this movie, I thought it already existed but it doesn't.

Git köpek kedi ye

@@alikoktas4050 Racism.

Kristian Dimnik With the exception of Mr. Hyde. The Mummy‘s version of him is pretty much the best we have gotten in modern times.

Too bad Dracula Untold didn't do better

Untold isn’t apart of the The Dark Universe

Wow has it been three years already? Damn.

The 2010 The Wolfman is how the Dark Universe should have been attempted. Van Helsing started strong with that scene and then focused on action. Action is good, but should not overshadow horror in a horror movie.

Ore Wa Mou Shindeiru!

Dio?!!

@@exen3980 No, Kenshiro

@@DiggitySlice Dio is a vampire

Actually the term (if I'm correct) is "undead"

There are lots of great parts in the film but I remember the plot being slightly convoluted

Just one statement will make my mother flip out. That is VAMPIRES DON'T SPARKLE instantly gets her pissed off at me.

1:01 if you pause it for a split second you can see his monstrous true form as well

What is AHS?

Nice reference to MK

@@J_C_CH damn i try pausing it but it was fast

so was the werewolf. Best looking and terrifying werewolf ever.

Andrea Bocelli.

Thought it was Liam Gallagher?

Because talent

Because of alex kurtzman 🤢

Because the multiple script writers, Alex Kurtzman and all the rest of it didn't have as much talent as Stephen Sommers had in his little finger.

Because they didn't have the balls to do it this well. Also Tom Cruise insisted on being the central plot point over what the movie was named after.

The Dark Universe needed to be straight horror, not action horror like Van Helsing. More like The Wolfman 2010 ,rather than like this and the Tom Cruse Mummy

I just did it for the line that’s all

@@guyver3662 eren yeager died☹️

Yes it's was the people

Lol that’s hardly paying homage. If he didn’t say that line then it may as well be my little pony

@@JD-re3cj It is paying homage. In the novel Victor Frankenstein doesn't say that, so I assume it was an ad lib by the actor. Well, maybe It was in the script. It's a cinematographic invention, nonetheless

Nah you're just tripping

@@ambiank4980 okay..

Slowed down it looks really awkwardly photoshopped in haha

I did! Its really subtle and nice way of introducing the character without him stating who he actually is

The people know he is up to no good. He's been grave robbing and there are, you know, rumors. Fun fact: Leonardo DaVinci hired grave robbers to bring him bodies to dissect. People figured it out, soon enough, and the local police came to DaVinci's door. Being a monied/status citizen, DaVinci was able to deflect them away.

Aside from the fact this is Southwest Romania in 1887 were grave robbing is still considered a terribly stupid idea because... vampires. Fun fact: Vampires are originally reanimated corpses feasting on blood so people back in the day did everything for the dead to REMAIN dead. Any open grave where a body is freshly buried the day before is not a good thing to know...
