Bram Stoker's Dracula's Guest

Oh merciful Lord, this one's bad.

It's funny, because the title is sort of word play- Bram Stoker's Dracula's Guest.

Here, unlike Coppola's Bram Stoker's Dracula, where Stoker's is possessive, Stoker's is a contraction for the meaning "Bram Stoker is Dracula's Guest."

Really.

Dracula has come to London to buy a house and Bram Stoker works for a firm to procure it for him; later Stoker stays at the house.

It's bad.

I've seen the Coppola movie before and I've held off rewatching it for the project (saving one of the good ones for later) but one of the running criticisms of the move is Keanu Reeves' attempt at a British accent.

He makes the actors in Dracula's Guest look like Olivier.

The actor playing Dracula... well, he was pretty good as Leatherface in the remake of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Here, he was... well, menacing, but that was more of a side effect of his build- he's kind of a beefy guy- one of his featured roles was as a football player in Any Given Sunday- and I don't really think "beefy" when I think Dracula.

The sets and the costumes were ok; better than what I expected- unfortunately, that's not a reason to watch this movie.
