Quotes:
|
-
Renfield: I am not insane! I am a sane man fighting for his soul!
-
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.
-
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.
-
Van Helsing: We have all become God's madmen, all of us.
-
Dracula: I am the monster the breathing men want to kill. I am Dracula.

Trivia:
|
- Among the moving-picture displays in the scene where the prince and Mina first converse is a shadow-figure show depicting the battle between Vlad's army and the Turks.
- 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.
- This film is very similar in story and shots to Nosferatu.
- Sadie Frost dyed her brown hair red after concerns that she closely resembled Winona Ryder.
