One of the horror classics, but now dated. The characters have very little to do, and there's a lot of standing around reciting lines. It's hard to believe audiences were terrified of this, although Lugosi does give a hypnotizing performance (helped by the impressive lighting).

Has a lot of things working to its advantage in the performances and the cinematography but there are large segments that are overly dialogue-heavy and "stagey" in a bad way.

I think that the Hammer version of Dracula is better. This film is way too slow and stiff.

The first thirty minutes of this get pretty chilling at times, thanks to some beautiful cinematography from Karl Freund and Bela Lugosi's great performance. Unfortunately, after that point, the pace of the story slows to a crawl despite some good supporting performances, and builds to... well, not much. Watch the version with Philip Glass' score - at least when nothing's happening, the music is still good.

Definitely worth watching for the timeless Bela Lugosi, and there was some creepy atmosphere and good sets. However some of the cheesiness, such as the fake bats and the ridiculously bad acting by Renfield (until he went crazy, thank goodness, when he became pretty great) and Harker were severe problems for me. The ending was unforgivably rushed and anticlimactic. Overall it was decent, but of course inferior to Nosferatu (1922).

Definitely not scary by any means, but it still succeeds in building a creepy atmosphere, especially in the first third of the film. The Special effects are laughably dated and the pacing is awkward. It's decent, but obviously a lot less thought and artistry was put into this than say, Nosferatu or Frankenstein. Obviously, the only reason why this film is remembered is because of Bela Lugosi, who single-handedly created the Dracula character we know today, broken English and all.

A moody opening and some killer set design can't save the narrative, which is edited in a slapdash fashion and commits the greatest cinematic sin of all: It's boring as shit.

The silent horror aesthetic marches along into the sound era with mixed results, though you can certainly spot out the strong elements that made it a hit. There's some first rate cinematography with great sets, mattes, etc. (especially towards the beginning) and you can see why everyone knows what Bela Legosi's performance in this film is like even if they've never seen it. On the other hand, there's no shortage of rubber bats or wooden performances to date things a bit, either.
