[acedrake]

Of all the actors portraying Dracula, the best for me is Gary Oldman's portrayal. Wich do you preffer and why?

Gary Oldman is mine. A close second would be.....

Spoiler

The Leslie Neilson

 

[SuperFerret]

Lugosi

 

[Lex Luthor]

Christopher Lee

Just seemed like an actor who really enjoyed playing the part, and for that I've always liked his portrayal. As it's one I also grew up watching as well thru several films.
Lugosi is another that falls into this catagory as well.

 

[cryptic name]

Lugosi

and Duncan Regher from Monster Squad

 

[Kevin Roegele]

Frank Langella

 

[Drizzle]

Gary Oldman

 

[Lighthouse]

Max Schreck

 

[Nivek]

Chris Lee or Gary Oldman.

Honorable mention...

Bela Lugosi
Gerard Butler
Duncan Regehr
John Carradine

Love the book, but I always liked more Animalistic Dracula's over the classy "I found my lost love" sappy Drac's (which wasn't in the original story). Gary came close to getting on my nerves with that, but in other parts he was damn sinister it made you forget about the poo-poo crap.

 

[Joker]

Schreck (even though he wasnt called Dracula) or Lugosi.

 

[November Rain]

dude in van hellsing.

 

[Rac]

[chamber-music]

Gerard Butlers Judas/Dracula wasn't that good. He was more Ann Rice vampire than the count

 

[Jackasscoley15]

Max Schreck and Gary Oldman.

 

[Nivek]

Gerard Butlers Judas/Dracula wasn't that good. He was more Ann Rice vampire than the count

Compared to others who have plated Dracula, he wasn't that bad. Better than that Goth/Emo clown in Van Helsing.

another name of note, Louis Jordan in that BBC series from the 80's that was close to the book.

 

[Kevin Roegele]

dude in van hellsing.

LOL, if Bram Stoker had witnessed that he would have never written the damn book

 

[fu manchu]

Christopher Lee

 

[Figs]

Lugosi
Oldman
Lee

In that order.

 

[LastSunrise1981]

Oldman
Lugosi
Lee

 

[Drizzle]

dude in van hellsing.

Are you kidding? That was probably the worst incarnation of Dracula ever!
