Quotes:
|
-
Dracula: I never drink ... wine.
-
Dracula: I am the monster the breathing men want to kill. I am Dracula.
-
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.
-
Jonathan Harker: The Count, the way he looked at Mina's picture fills me with dread. As if I have a part to play in a story that is not known to me.
-
Dracula: The blood is life... and it shall be mine!

Trivia:
|
- Anthony Hopkins also plays Cesare, the priest who tells Dracula that Elisabeta's soul is damned; and he provides the voice-over sequence during the narrative for the Captain of the Demeter.
- This film is very similar in story and shots to Nosferatu.
- 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.
- 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.
- Mina walks past an advertisement for the Lyceum Theatre and Henry Irving. Dracula author Bram Stoker managed the Lyceum, and Sir Henry Irving is rumored to be one of the primary inspirations for the character of Count Dracula.
