Quotes:
|
-
Lord Arthur Holmwood: Last week he wanted to marry her. Now he wants to have her committed.
-
Doctor Jack Seward: You want to autopsy Lucy?
Van Helsing: No no no, not exactly. I just want to cut off her head and take out her heart. -
Van Helsing: She lives beyond the grace of God. She is "vampyr", "nosferatu". These creatures do not die like the bee after a first sting, but instead grow strong once infected by another nosferatu. My friends we fight not one beast but legions living age after age after age, feeding off of the blood of the living.
-
Jonathan Harker: The Count, the way he looked at Mina's picture fills me with dread. As if I have a part to play in a story that is not known to me.
-
Dracula: I have crossed oceans of time to find you.
|
|
Trivia:
|
- Red Jelly was used for the blood.
- The horses pulling Dracula's carriage (when Johnathen Harker is taken to Dracula's castle) move in slow motion, probably a reference to NOSFERATU - EINE SYMPHONIE DES GRAUENS in which Count Orlock's carriage moves in fast motion.
- Earnings from the film was enough to save Zoetrope (Francis Ford Coppola's studio) from bankruptcy after suffering from financial difficulties and liabilities of $27 million over the past 3 years.
- A scene in which Mina seduces Van Helsing was filmed but cut.
- Anthony Hopkins also plays Cesare, the priest who tells Dracula that Elisabeta's soul is damned; and he provides the voice-over sequence during the narrative for the Captain of the Demeter.
