Gets worse on repeat viewings.

Francis Ford Coppola's take on the Dracula legend sees Gary Oldman as the Count, who as a warrior prince returns from battle to find his true love, who after believing him to have been killed, has committed suicide. Renouncing his Christianity he pledges to return from the death to enact revenge on humanity. Century's later he is back to keep his word but becomes infatuated with Mina (Winona Ryder) who bears a resemblance to his long dead true love.

Forget the Bram Stoker bit, this is liberty taken wholesale, and forget any notion of this being a scary Drac... llegiu la resta.
