| I don't know what Roger Ebert means when he says this movie "doesn't scare us, but it haunts us." This is the only movie I have ever seen that I had nightmares about afterward. This Dracula is no suave seducer. He's like some kind of elemental death force that comes up out of the ground to drag you into horror and corruption. He's putrefaction incarnate. These images are unbelievably powerful. |

| An excellent choice for your first foray into Silent Film, whether you love horror movies, classic film, or movie making in general. Very creepy, this is a great movie, especially for a film 80 years old. The biggest plus is the commentary shedding a whole new light on feature. Be sure to see Shadow of the Vampire afterwards... |
