Synopsis
Dracula (1979) is John Badham's gothic horror, and you can watch it online on iFILM. A ship breaks apart off the English coast, and the lone survivor pulled from the water is taken in as an honored guest.
Frank Langella plays the Count not as a fanged ghoul but as a magnetic aristocrat who is hard to refuse. Newly arrived from Transylvania in search of an immortal bride, he fixes his attention on the daughter of a local asylum keeper. Professor Van Helsing stands in his way, played by Laurence Olivier, with Donald Pleasence and Kate Nelligan rounding out the cast.
Badham adapted the hit Broadway revival and chose romance and sensuality over gore, draping the film in fog, candlelight and a sweeping John Williams score. It suits anyone who likes their gothic horror slow, lush and laced with desire. Stream Dracula (1979) online on iFILM.
