Our Vampire month is drawing to an end. In this penultimate episode we look at Bram Stoker's Dracula from Director Francis Ford Coppola for it's 30th anniversary.
We talk about our first impressions of this film. Leigh talks about seeing it much later in life, while Simon talks about it being a game changer for him growing up.
How does this film hold up after 30 years? Is it still as impressive, and how do all of the unique visual effects stand up?
We get into alternate casting, stunt casting and unfortunately a fair bit of miscasting. Even with all of that, is this the most star studded horror film ever?
We discuss the interesting changes from the book to film, as well as what changes work and which ones left us scratching our heads.
Simon talks about his ever changing relationship with the film and how his feelings have changed into adulthood.
Leigh meanwhile doubles down on her initial thoughts and explains why she has such a hard time with this film.
We also discuss the mandela effect this movie has on people, and all of the things people take from this film as canon. How this has affected people's perception and understanding of the story and how it's effective all of the versions that have come after it.
All of this and a lot more in this episode.
