Review of Count Dracula

Count Dracula (1977 TV Movie)
The Ultimate "Dracula"!
5 June 2004
Having been a fan of Bram Stoker's "Gothic Romance" for years, I made it a quest to collect every Dracula movie I could get my hands on. I had practically every version , when I heard about this one. I had given up hope on finding it because I had been told that it was out of print etc. Then, by complete accident, I located a VHS copy on Ebay. When I finally received this, I was left speechless. This is the BEST Dracula movie I had ever seen. It kept so true to the novel and the actors were picked so perfectly. The movie captures the atmosphere that was in the book very well... Especially the sleep walking in the grave yard scene... The sets were kind of "shotty" but still realistic enough. This is also one of those movies that has the "one actor." You know what I mean, the one actor that just makes the whole movie... In COUNT Dracula, that actor is Judi Bowker. She personifies the character of Mina to a T... her beauty, innocence, and powerful will makes Count Dracula the great movie it is... So, I stress this, if you like vampire movies, then FIND a copy of this movie!
