    Nosferatu, The first major film to adapt Bram Stoker's novel, couldn't afford the rights to it. However, it managed to become a historical landmark in German Expressionism and in the history of cinema as a whole. Instead of Dracula, the vampire was named Count Orlok, played by Max Schreck. His bald head, hunched back, and sharp front teeth differ g...

    Bela Lugosi is certainly the actor responsible for bringing Dracula to horror icon status. He first portrayed the vampiric count in a 1927 Broadway adaptation of the novel before appearing in Universal's 1931 film adaptation. Despite his heavy accent, natural ability to create a sense of mystery, and previous experience playing the character, he wa...

    First replacing Bela Lugosi for House of Frankenstein in 1944, John Carradine joined Dracula's earliest set of actors. In that movie, his alter ego is Baron Latos, and he's revived by the mad scientist Doctor Niemann (played by original Frankenstein monster actor Boris Karloff) along with the Wolfman (Lon Chaney Jr.) and Frankenstein's monster (Gle...

    Dracula is just one of the many iconic roles that made Sir Christopher Lee a legendary actor. Before he cemented Dracula in pop culture for a new generation, he played Frankenstein's monster in The Curse of Frankenstein (1957), which put him in good terms with Hammer Films, the film production company that popularized horror in the 1950s. This succ...

    The fearsome Count Dracula also found a home in the sitcom format with the highly successful CBS show The Munsters. The eccentric family included Herman (Fred Gwynne playing a "family man" version of Frankenstein's monster), Lily (Yvonne de Carlo spoofing a vampiress), and the little werewolf Eddie (Butch Patrick). The elder of the family was Grand...

    After starring in the successful Broadway adaptation of Bram Stoker's novel, which earned him a Tony Award, Frank Langella made the jump to the big screen in 1979 with John Badham's Dracula. Langella's performance stood out from his predecessors' for switching the character's typical sinister behavior in exchange for erotic elegance and sex appeal....

    Right bel0w Bela Lugosi and Christopher Lee, Gary Oldman is widely regarded as the best Dracula ever put to film. As the movie's title suggests, Francis Ford Coppola's retelling of the legendary Gothic tale stuck close to Bram Stoker's roots. Accordingly, Gary Oldman's performance as Draculaleaned more towards a creepier interpretation of a bizarre...

    Comedy star Leslie Nielsen, known for his acclaimed performances in Airplane! and The Naked Gun, tried to continue his successful streak of spoof movies with the role of Draculain 1995. However, the film was shunned by critics, who criticized Nielsen's uncharacteristic lack of clever humor. Still, this role is one of many collaborations with direct...

    A show called Buffy the Vampire Slayer couldn't have existed without at least mentioning the most famous vampire of all. However, Dracula is barely present in the series. He first appears in the fifth season's premiere, aptly titled Buffy vs Dracula. Rudolf Martin portrays the villain as a seductive and powerful vampire, but instead of siding again...

    Gerard Butler's portrayal of Dracula gained an unexpected degree of popularity for all the wrong reasons. His audition tape for the role is especially awkward and his performance in the film isn't generally considered much better. As the title implies, Dracula 2000resurrects the vampire at the start of the new millennium, with a gothic rock soundtr...
