🩸BRAM STOKER’S DRACULA (1992)🩸

Not a favorite Dracula movie of mine by any means, but a must-watch movie for a lot of non-Dracula related reasons. This movie is an absolute visual treat, the sets and costumes are stunning throughout, and is filled with excellent actors including Gary Oldman as Dracula and Anthony Hopkins as Van Helsing. It really isn’t a horrible adaptation either as it follows the sequence of events in the books fairly accurately, and features narration from the characters in the style of diary entries which I really enjoy as a reference to the epistolary structure of the original novel. This move is also one of the rare few that features the entire cast supporting characters, however I have mixed feelings about their portrayal, particularly Mina Harker’s odd romance with Dracula (another dead-ringer reincarnated wife romance subplot—completely uninspired) which I find to be a distasteful treatment of her character even with her original personality still being somewhat intact in other ways. Ultimately this movie is worthwhile only if I don't actually think of it as a Dracula movie haha.

My favorite scene in this, which I based my little illustration off of, is when Dracula’s shadow is moving behind Jonathan, I love the way it starts out subtle enough that you might not be sure you’re seeing it right, gradually getting more out of sync up to the moment it begins moving completely independent of him. I think it’s brilliant.

Anyway, happy Halloween everyone, and I hope you’ve enjoyed both my artwork and my movie chatter this month :)

And that is the end, I can now say that I read all of Dracula 🦇🩸.

This little final note is so heartwarming after all of the horrors that the crew of light experienced. They fought an unexpected evil that suddenly came into their lives, they left Transylvania with horrible memories, and the death of a really good friend. And yet... All of their lives move foward because that is what we humans do, we continue living.

I remember that I wrote about how Jonathan and Mina should try to visit Transylvania in a few years to see everything in a new light. When the scars have healed but not dissapeared, maybe to heal a little bit, and they did. Jonathan and Mina went there, with all of their memories, and saw how time is always moving, the castle is still there as the remains of a forgotten era of history, yet it changed like everything else. Both of them know what kind of evil resided there, and yet, Jonathan and Mina saw how everything changes yet stays.

An all round of congratulations to everyone, to Mina and Jonathan for having a little boy Quincey (who they named after everyone in the crew of light). To Van Helsing for finally having a family again, and being able to enjoy life. To Jack and Arthur on their recent marriage (yes I know that they probably married women off screen, but consider they are gay married). I hope that all of them live happily for the rest of their days.

Maybe in a few years, when Quincey Harker is older, he will read the novel that his mother keeps and reads from time to time. Or maybe he will ask his father to tell him a scary story, just how mom does sometimes. Who knows, but this little boy will know someday how brave his parents were, to what they fought against hand in hand. Quincey will know about kind lady named Lucy, about a grand cowboy who has his name, about an old man who tried to save his mom. All of the people who did not deserved that fate.

Only time will tell, but for now, even with all of their loses, the last members of the crew of light will continue living happily and ready to take on anything that life throws at them. Because if they could defeat an ancient powerful vampire with the combination of ancient knowledge, and modern humanity.. then it means they can do anything.

Drácula: el icono gótico por excelencia

Drácula - Bram Stoker

calificación: 5/5  ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

detalles: EN LA RESEÑA ESTAN LOS DETALLES

sinopsis: Drácula parte de la existencia de Vlad Tepes, un personaje histórico situado en la Rumania del siglo XV, y conocido por su heroicidad contra la invasión otomana, pero también por su crueldad. A partir de esta historia y de no pocas leyendas acerca de él, Bram Stoker escribe esta magistral novela en forma de diarios y cartas que los personajes principales van intercambiándose. Una obra trascendental de la literatura gótica que abrió un nuevo camino en la novela de terror y que instauró la figura del aristócrata transilvano como arquetipo del mal y modelo de seducción perversa, y sus páginas han sido fuente inagotable de innumerables adaptaciones cinematográficas. Drácula es uno de los personajes más conocidos del terror gótico.

Opinión y chisme: 👇👇👇

El vampiro más popular ✞🧛🩸🦇🐺⚰️

Todos tenemos una idea general sobre el conde Drácula ya que forma parte de la cultura pop, con innumerables versiones, homenajes y parodias, yo pensé que el libro que origino todo no me sorprendería, pero, que equivocada estuve.

Lo primero que me sorprendió es que la forma en que esta narrada la historia es bastante fácil de leer, yo pensé que al ser una obra clásica y gótica, seria compleja como la prosa de Poe o inclusive mas dificultoso de seguir, pero incluso con los errores en los párrafos (maldito Plutón Ediciones 🙄) fue una lectura bastante sencilla y elegante.

Otro detalle es que tiene un suspenso bien logrado, creo que al ser narrado por diferentes perspectivas hizo que la historia fuese increíblemente enganchante e intrigante, o sea, no me dio miedo, sin embargo, la obra es bastante tétrica.

Tampoco esperé que Mina fuese un personaje tan importante, nuevamente, supuse que ella era solo una victima inofensiva del conde pero realmente tuvo un papel crucial tanto como Van Helsing.

Y aunque casi para terminar todo fue algo apresurado, me tuvo en vilo hasta el final, fue una aventura emocionante y magnifica, es increíble pensar en el impacto que ha causado a lo largo de los años.

Le doy 5☆, me sorprendió y encanto, supero mis expectativas y realmente disfrute de esta lectura tantísimo que no quería que acabara, ahora puedo ver mis adaptaciones preferidas y compararlas con la obra original 😈🙏.

Para quienes se ahorran esta historia porque ya es conocida, denle una oportunidad porque la obra original es muy distinta a todas las adaptaciones que se conocen, aunque no las he visto todas puedo decir que de verdad vale muchísimo la pena, recomendadisima para todos.

⚠ Por cierto, esta editorial me ha vuelto a decepcionar, aquí hizo un pésimo resumen, distorsionó bastante varios párrafos (especialmente en la parte final) y tiene mas errores con los párrafos en todo el libro (al igual que con 'El Gran Gatsby'), 

-he tenido que photoshopear mi foto porque esta edición no merece ser promocionada-, 

en serio, no lo recomiendo, NO COMPREN LOS LIBROS DE PLUTÓN EDICIONES, arruina la lectura 👎🤢.
