Dracula

For the thirsty, we are going to shed some sunlight on more than a hundred years dedicated to the figure of the vampire, without this altering its eternal existence in the history of cinema.

Dark films as hypnotic as his character, plots that drink from the sources of the most fantastic literature and although everyone believes its origin in the classic “Dracula” by Bran Stoker published in 1897, this creature was created by John William Polidori in 1819, a stormy night with Lord Byron and Mary Shelley, “The Vampire” a gothic story was born with Frankenstein’s monster in 1816.

The cinema has known how to sink its fangs and has bled all these novels to the present, sometimes without the permission of their authors, such as the film “Nosferatu” (1922) by F.W. Murnau, therefore persecuted and destroyed like her protagonist in fiction, being about to disappear.

Bela Lugosi, achieved fame in 1931 for his ‘Dracula’, his accent and incredible performance makes him the most romantic seductive predator. He was buried in the suit he wore in the movies.

I would consider Christopher Lee, the prince of darkness, who has the honor of having played Dracula more than ten times on screen, between 1958 and 1976.

Other sons of the night that I would like to name are Stephen King with “The Mystery of Salem’s Lot” made into a film by Tobe Hooper, 1979, “Bram Stoker’s Dracula” by Francis Ford Coppola, 1992, a Greek tragedy and macabre opera masterfully made for the pleasure and horror of the beholder.

I don’t want to leave behind the funniest bloodsuckers like Roman Polanski’s “Dance of the Vampires”, 1967, a parody that doesn’t taste bitter of garlic.

“Vampires in Havana” by Juan Padrón, 1985, animation where crucifixes and salsa music are combined.

”Night of fear” (1985) by Tom Holland and “Hidden Youth” (1987), two classics of the eighties, the latter biker vampires with leather aesthetics.

I’ll leave you now apologizing for my short neck and we’ll return in another article to return to the subject with a possible “Interview with a Vampire” but clearly this can’t be “From Dusk Till Dawn”.

“Tonight there is something worse than vampires… Me!”
