This movie is not 100% accurate to the novel, but that said, it's still a great adaption. It's a good, fun, trashy version, and Jack Palance is excellent as Dracula (I don't understand the reviewers who complained about him). The busty vampire girls are quite memorable as well. The sets, blood, sexuality of this film are all excellent. And most unforgettable is the scenes when Dracula seduces his female victims. Great stuff, especially for teenage boys! I loved this movie when I was 10 years old, and I still love it. Dan Curtis did some great stuff back in the 1970s, and this film still holds up well. No, this is not a deep, super-intelligent version, but it's still well done, and well paced.
