Quotes:
|
-
Dracula: Absinthe is the aphrodisiac of the self. The green fairy who lives in the absinthe wants your soul. But you are safe with me.
-
Mina: I want to be what you are. See what you see - love what you love.
Dracula: Mina, to walk with me you must die to your breathing life and be reborn to mine.
Mina: You are my love... and my life... always...
Dracula: Then... I give you life eternal. Everlasting love. The power of the storm. And the beasts of the earth. Walk with me... to be my loving wife... forever.
-
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.
-
Dracula: I never drink ... wine.
-
Van Helsing: Mr. Morris, your bullets will not harm him. He must be beheaded. I suggest that you use your big Bowie knife.
Quincey P. Morris: Well, I wasn't planning on getting that close, Doc.

Trivia:
|
- This film is very similar in story and shots to Nosferatu.
- Winona Ryder saw the script when it was originally going to be made as a TV movie, directed by Michael Apted. She took the script to Francis Ford Coppola, whom she had not spoken to since withdrawing from The Godfather: Part III due to exhaustion six months earlier. Coppola agreed to make the film, and Apted stayed on as executive producer.
- In an attempt to elicit more emotion, Coppola shouted "whore" and "slut" while filming the scene when Van Helsing catches Mina with Dracula.
- When Mina recalls her previous life as Elisabeta she says she remembers a land beyond a great forest. "Land beyond the forest" is the literal meaning of Transylvania.
- Prince Vlad's scream after he drives his sword into the cross is not the voice of Gary Oldman. Lux Interior, lead singer of punk band The Cramps, recorded the scream and it was dubbed in.
