2014 American dark fantasy action horror film directed by Gary Shore
POPULARITY
In this final installment of our March podcast villain series, we decided to end with a character who has been interpreted in more ways than almost any other: Count Dracula.Meaghan and Arthur dove into this rich, multifaceted figure who has stood the test of time, appearing in literature, theater, film, television, comics, and even ballet. While Dracula is far from the first fictional villain, his enduring presence makes him one of the most iconic.Across generations, the character has been portrayed in so many forms that it almost becomes impossible to count. So we took on the challenge of tracing Dracula's origins, his evolution across media, and our own personal favorites from his cinematic portrayals.The Roots of DraculaWe began by introducing listeners to the original story of Dracula, the novel published in 1897 by Irish author Bram Stoker. The novel is set up in an epistolary format, meaning it's told through letters, journal entries, telegrams, and various documents — a storytelling method that adds a documentary-like authenticity to the supernatural tale.Much of it was written while Stoker stayed in Whitby, England, a location that eventually inspired part of the book's setting. In the story, Jonathan Harker travels to Transylvania to help a mysterious count named Dracula purchase property in England. Things spiral into horror as Dracula makes his way to London, bringing with him death and chaos.As we discussed, there's a longstanding debate about Dracula's real-life inspiration. The common theory connects him to Vlad the Impaler, a ruthless 15th-century ruler known for his violent methods. There's also speculation around Hungarian countess Elizabeth Bathory, infamous for allegedly bathing in the blood of young girls. However, newer scholarship suggests Stoker might have chosen the name "Dracula" simply because he misunderstood it to mean “devil” in Romanian.We also touched on the thematic weight of Dracula's character - how, especially during the Victorian era, he symbolized temptation, corruption, foreignness, and disease. His ability to lure women into his power and feed on them while they remained semi-willing created a metaphorical blend of sexuality, danger, and the fear of the “other” that resonated with readers of the time.Dracula on the Screen: From Shadows to SoundWe explored how Dracula's story was first visualized in cinema, starting with the silent film Nosferatu (1922), a German adaptation that changed character names to avoid copyright issues.Despite efforts by Stoker's widow to have all copies destroyed, a few prints survived, and the film became a cult classic. Nosferatu laid the groundwork for what would become the Dracula visual standard — looming figures, haunting silhouettes, and unsettling stillness.We then examined the 1931 Dracula film starring Bela Lugosi, the first officially licensed screen adaptation. Lugosi's performance shaped the image of Dracula in popular culture: the accent, the cape, the stare.We learned that Lugosi performed the role phonetically, not speaking English fluently, which added to the eerie stillness of his portrayal. Interestingly, a Spanish-language version was filmed simultaneously using the same sets, which many critics consider to be superior in certain technical aspects.Dracula became the foundation for Universal Studios' “monster movie” identity, alongside Frankenstein, The Mummy, and The Wolfman. These films established a shared aesthetic that would be drawn upon for decades.Waves of Interpretation: Gothic Horror to Sexy VampiresFrom the 1950s through the 1970s, we saw a gothic revival of Dracula through Hammer Horror films, most prominently featuring Christopher Lee. We both appreciated Lee's version — a charismatic, regal Dracula — and talked about how he portrayed the character in seven different Hammer films. In some of those, he even refused to speak if he found the lines poorly written, creating a more silent, menacing figure.The 1970s also brought in more playful and unconventional interpretations, like Blacula, a Blaxploitation reimagining. We highlighted how William Marshall's portrayal introduced a sophisticated, socially aware Dracula figure who challenged racial themes head-on. There was also Frank Langella's Dracula, which leaned heavily into romantic seduction, further evolving the character from monster to tragic anti-hero.Then came the 1992 film Bram Stoker's Dracula by Francis Ford Coppola, starring Gary Oldman, Keanu Reeves, and Winona Ryder. While visually rich and ambitious in scope, we felt it was uneven — a mix of great performances and questionable choices, particularly with casting and pacing.Modern Spins and ReinventionWe also explored how Dracula has fared in the 21st century. In the 2000s, the character began to be molded in more experimental or comedic directions. We discussed Dracula 2000, which offered a wildly original origin story — portraying Dracula as Judas Iscariot, cursed with immortality for betraying Jesus. Despite the film's overall mediocrity, we admired the creativity of that take.Then, there was Dracula Untold (2014), a more action-oriented approach that reconnected Dracula to Vlad the Impaler. While not universally loved, we found it entertaining and appreciated its attempt to craft a distinct backstory. Meanwhile, the 2020 BBC/Netflix miniseries Dracula starring Claes Bang impressed both of us deeply. We praised it as one of the most creative and engaging portrayals in recent memory, successfully blending horror, humor, and charisma.We also talked about recent comedic takes like Renfield (2023), with Nicolas Cage going full camp as Dracula. Cage's performance stood out despite the film's weaknesses — we both agreed he injected new life into a familiar character. Additionally, animated versions like Hotel Transylvania took Dracula in a fully comedic, family-friendly direction.Cultural Impact and CuriositiesBeyond film, Dracula has appeared across multiple mediums. We were fascinated to learn that he had a run in Marvel comics in the 1970s in Tomb of Dracula, which also introduced Blade. There were radio adaptations, most notably one with Orson Welles, and even ballet productions like Dracula: Pages from a Virgin's Diary, combining gothic horror with Canadian ballet.We included several TV portrayals in our honorable mentions, such as the Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode “Buffy vs. Dracula,” and a Supernatural episode featuring a Dracula-inspired shapeshifter. These versions brought humor and novelty to the character, continuing his evolution into satire and pastiche.And, of course, we couldn't forget the Count from Sesame Street — likely the only Dracula interpretation who's never been evil, only educational.Our Personal Rankings and Final ThoughtsWe each compiled a top-five ranking of our favorite portrayals of Dracula. While our picks varied in the lower ranks — with shoutouts to Nosferatu, Blacula, Dracula Untold, Nicolas Cage's Renfield Dracula, and the 1931 Bela Lugosi version — we both agreed that Claes Bang's portrayal in the 2020 miniseries was number one. His performance captured a blend of menace, charm, and unpredictability that felt refreshing and memorable.As we wrapped up the episode, we reflected on how Dracula, as a character, has endured through decades because of his adaptability. Whether terrifying, seductive, tragic, or hilarious, Dracula continues to evolve with the times. From Victorian fears to modern humor, he offers creators endless possibilities to reimagine what a vampire — and a villain — can be.We're wrapping up villain month with this tribute, but we're excited to start a brand new theme next week. Dracula might be going back to his coffin for now, but he'll certainly rise again.

Ever wondered why some movies fail so spectacularly despite a stellar cast? Join me, JetBlackXtreme, as I unravel the half-baked production that is the "Madame Web" movie. Prepare yourself for my brutally honest exploration of why this film missed the mark, from its awkward dialogue to its divergence from the comic book origins. We'll go beyond the surface, dissecting the screenplay penned by writers notorious for their work on "Dracula Untold" and "Morbius," and question whether their involvement set the film up for disaster.Dive deep into the character analysis with me as we scrutinize the wasted potential of actors like Sydney Sweeney and Mike Epps. Get to know the underdeveloped backstories of Julia, Anya, Mattie, and Cassie, and understand why their character arcs left much to be desired. From a poorly explained forest trip to an unnecessary journey to Peru, I'll break down the convoluted plot and Cassie's misguided attempts to solve the film's central conflict. Plus, you'll find out why Ezekiel Sims makes for an unconvincing villain and how the film's lack of compelling action and dialogue contributed to its downfall.Finally, we'll examine the film's inconsistencies and shortcomings, including historical inaccuracies that will leave you scratching your head. Hear about Dakota Johnson's dramatic decision to fire her agent post-filming and the actors' general disdain for the project. In wrapping up, I'll give my candid review, discussing why the film deserves a failing grade despite a few redeeming qualities. So, tune in and join the critique – it's bound to be more entertaining than the movie itself.

Welcome back to Not A Bomb podcast! This is the show where we re-examine some of the biggest bombs in cinematic history and see if they deserve a second chance. In this episode, we discuss a film with nine-foot Egyptian Gods played by generic white people who bleed gold and turn into Voltron-like robots. Yes, you read that sentence correctly. Our little podcast finally tackles 2016's fantasy action film - Gods of Egypt. This one…well…is a head-scratcher. For one, it's directed by Alex Proyas, an individual responsible for classics such as The Crow and Dark City. But he has Knowing in his filmography. Secondly, the film is penned by the duo known for Dracula Untold, The Last Witch Hunter, and Morbius. Not really a winning combination. Maybe against all odds, this one will be something watchable…right, right? Download and find out! Gods of Egypt is directed by Alex Proyas and stars Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Gerard Butler, Brenton Thwaites, Chadwick Boseman, Elodie Yung, Courtney Eaton, Rufus Sewell, and Geoffrey Rush.If you want to leave feedback or suggest a movie bomb, please drop us a line at NotABombPod@gmail.com or Contact Us - here.

Can Luke Evans start a great monster universe with Dracula Untold (2014)? Listen and find out in this action-packed episode you don't want to miss!
Back in 2014, Universal Pictures wanted to reboot its Universal Monster properties as part of a shared universe they would call “The Dark Universe”. The venture began with 2014s Dracula Untold, which flopped, and then they tried again with 2017s The Mummy, which despite being profitable, earning $410 million dollars against a $125 million dollar budget, wasn't well received by critics and prompted the studio to scrap the Dark Universe.Flash forward to 2019, Robert Kirkman pitched a 20 page script for a comedic horror Dracula story in the theme of 2014s What We Do In The Shadows. 2020s The Invisible Man was a commercial and critical hit that gave new hope for the Universal Monsters franchise. Kirkman got the green light, signing up director Chris McKay and writer Ryan Ridley to develop a final vision that led to a quasi sequel to the first Universal Monster hit, Todd Browning's 1931 Dracula starring Bela Lugosi.If you want to know if Universal's latest Monster offering is going to sink or float the franchise, hangout with us as we discuss and review the latest homage to the Dracula franchise in Chris McKay's RENFIELD on The Brothers in Armchairs Podcast.Thanks for listening, and feel free to hit us up on any of our social media platforms!

Perhaps this story should have remained Untold. This week the guys dive into Dracula Untold to find a backstory that makes little sense, a protagonist that by all accounts is still a horrific murder, and an Amazing Spiderman 2 Easter Egg?!Hate Watching is the show that should have also remained Untold.#Dracula #DraculaUnfun #HateWatchingDAT
The Creator of Gears of War & Unreal Cliff "Cliffy B" Bleszinski stops by to talk about his new memoir "Control Freak". It's a no holds barred account about his entire life starting as a a Nintendo Champion, Game Maker, but also an awkward nerd, who lost his Dad, and even got molested. Actor Zach McGowan from Starz "Black Sails" The 100 on the CW, and countless other film and tv credits, joins the show to talk about his new movie "Sanctioning Evil". We talk about his experience making the film, but other films with Danny Glover and the underrated flick "Dracula Untold".Skungy's Pick of the Week is "Gotham Knights" which was sold as a sequel to the Arkham series, but is no such thing. Add on the fact that the combat system stinks and the price tag is too high, you have a flop.In Top Nerd News, we cover the strange love affair the world seems to have for James Cameron'd "Avatar" series. The sequel is due out soon, and there is already a plan for what they'll do if it's a box office flop. Later we check out the new trailer for "A Christmas Story 2" which is technically the 3rd movie because of the straight to video "A Christmas Story 2 : The Official Sequel". Finally we make some wild guesses as to what Black Panther 2 aka "Wakanda Forever" will be about, and how well Namor and the New Black Panther is received.All that and more on The Week in Geek with D Squared.

It's day 8 of our Wheel of Horror 13 days of Halloween. Listen in today as Alec and Justin discuss the prequel to the Dracula, Dracula Untold. It's kinda a vampire movie, kinda a war movie, kinda not that great of a movie haha. Justin liked it, Alec did not. Listen in as the guys duke it out on today's episode. Enjoy!
Next up on the Listener Takeover is Dracula Untold, brought to us by Aliza. Starring Luke Evans, Sara Gadon, and Dominic Cooper, Dracula Untold is the origin story of how Dracula came to be.
Your Stupid Minds covers one of the many movies leaving HBO Max at the end of the month in the platform's effort pre-merger to make their streaming service really bad! This one isn't a huge loss though. It's 2014's Dracula Untold! Vlad Drăculea (Luke Evans) is Prince of Wallachia and Transylvania and mostly a good dad and leader, despite some light impaling he's done in the past. Sultan Mehmed II is leader of the Ottoman Empire and eyeing his territory, and also wants to take his son Ingeras (Art Parkinson) as a Janissary, so Vlad meets up with a disgusting vampire he met in a cave (Charles Dance) and strikes a deal with him to borrow his vampire powers for three days so he can kill the entire Turkish army and turn back into a human so long as he doesn't feed. Vlad's wife Mierna (Sarah Gadon) is a little peeved he didn't talk to her first, but eventually is okay with it and he tears through the Turkish army with his bat powers. Can he resist temptation and return to human form, or will he become a vampire forever? Obviously the latter, since Dracula is, like, a thing. So no mystery there.

Welcome back! Our boys went on a tiny break in their recording schedule to travel the world, the Pacific Northwest, and their basements! With this now worldly knowledge the SHUD guys are excited to bring to you a bevy of things watched (including a new Cronenberg!) all leading up to the talk of a highly touted classic of the genre, THE CHANGELING. Tune in and see what the guys thought of this flick and if it does indeed deserve a spot on that shining Border's Staff Pick in the sky. 00:00 - 19:30ish Intros: Fashun, how our incredibly successful podcast is doing thanks to you, Dear Listeners, Cody's nightmares, pimping as shown in How High and the Friday franchise (*shrugs*), Austin went to Italy, Curtis went to Seattle and San Diego, Lucas went to Bend, Oregon and the Last Blockbuster, what it's like to pick out movies when everything is available always, and night terrors. 19:30ish - 1:02:00ish What we watched this week: Bloodstone: Subspecies 2, Jennifer's Body, Bloodlust: Subspecies 3, Hatching, Lake Placid, House of Wax (‘05), Bubba Ho-Tep, Firestarter (‘84), Firestarter (‘22), Men, Predator, The Bat (‘59), The Cave, Crimes of the Future, Jurassic Parks (all of them except the new one because we just can't), Spencer, Good Will Hunting, The Void, Chip ‘n Dale Rescue Rangers, Army of Darkness (Curtis needed it again), Point Break (‘91 Curtis really needed again), The Quick and The Dead, Watcher, Dracula Untold, RRR (the best movie of an already classic year according to Curtis), Top Gun Maverick, Room, Crimson Peak, Money Heist, The Ritual, Monsters, Lethal Weapon 4, Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome, The Batman (Austin likes it more now!), and Alien 3. 1:02:00ish - 1:39:00ish The Changeling SHUDdown and discussion (featuring a baseball interruption courtesy of Cody). 1:39:00ish - End: Our next movie!
Happy Halloween! To celebrate, we'll finally make good on Universal Studio's inept promise to turn their classic monsters into a shared cinematic universe. Abbott and Costello helped transform the Universal Monsters into film's first multi-franchise continuity. The studio's subsequent reboot efforts have been a comedy of errors worthy of that classic duo. From attempts in the 90s to reproduce the success of Coppolla's auteur horror in Bram Stoker's Dracula, to the series of false starts in the 2000s with the likes of Benecio Del Toro's Wolfman and (franchise killer) Luke Evans' Dracula Untold, to the cynical SHIELD-izing of monster hunters with Tom Cruise's The Mummy, Universal has been heavy on splashy announcements and powerhouse casting -- and light on any quality filmmaking. All these stories are tales as old as time, so is there a way to find a fresh take at all? And if you do, how do you actually team up the monsters without feeling like a spoof? Gather round, boils, and ghouls, because the Crew is here to treat you with our Reboot tricks.
