Leave it to the BBC to produce a really faithful version of one of the most famous novels of all time. The leads are wonderful, and add so much gravity to the proceedings. Bosco Hogan as Jonathan Harker is excellent, and as Count Dracula, Louis Jordan is a revelation. He plays the suave, urbane Dracula to perfection, with a thinly veiled heart of evil.
There are some great touches, including the wonderful music, and the oddly effective special effects, which some may say are hopelessly dated, but I find very well done indeed. Please skip the Coppola disaster and watch this instead!
