Horror Classic Review: DRACULA (1931)

The first sound-era Hollywood horror film launched not only the classic Universal Monsters, but it also turned Bram Stoker's vampire into a cultural icon that haunts our collective nightmares to this day.

If you're looking for a "review" in the traditional sense, then let me just say I love this film. This video, however, is a "review" in the literal sense (using the Miriam-Webster definition "a retrospective view or survey"), in that I'm going over the history of the film and its place in horror cinema history.

In other words, please stop commenting on how my videos aren't what you consider "reviews."
