4. Christopher Lee - Hammer Horror: Dracula Series (1958 -1974)
3. Nosferatu The Vampyre (1979)
2. Jack Palance - Dan Curtis' Dracula (1974)
1. Bela Lugosi - Dracula (1931)
Those were the best, imo. The rest range from: I didn't like them to plain bloody awful.
Jack Palance Rolled.
The rest were chamber music.
NO.
That is not uneducated, it is a chance to experience new versions and find your head around the interpretations of the various.
I am looking forward to the new Dracula movie with Luke Evans.
How do you feel about David Lynch and his films?</font></center>
But very talented. Dune was almost great. Elephant Man is his best work IMO. Eraserhead made me feel like I was on a bad acid trip.
Sorry, correction: I did enjoy Nosferatu a lot! Max was fantastic. Close second to Lugosi.
(I have not seen the remake.)
Arnold gets my vote as worse actor (true, I have never liked him).
I think I have seen only one David Lynch film - The Elephant Man, eons ago. It was pretty good, but I cannot remember much. So another topic, I can't really say much about. But it's still fun reading this thread.
Upon checking imdb, I not only find that I saw more of his films that I enjoyed than films I didn´t enjoy, but also that he did a documentary with Duran Duran, which of course gives the man a big plus.
I don´t clearly remember Blue Velvet.
I do clearly remember how cool Special Agent Dale B. Cooper was, and how p+++ed off I was when that spirit got into him. I seem to remember the cinematic Twin Peaks film to be a mess, but maybe I should watch it one more time.
Lost Highway was brilliant.
The Elephant Man was rather moving in retrospective. At the time when I saw it I was expecting some kind of monster film, so I couldn´t really appreciate it for what it is immediately.
The only attribute I can think of in regard to Eraserhead is disturbing. But maybe my understanding of art will one day have developed so far that I can give the film another try. Or better not.
Dune was cool, all the more so since I heard Alejandro Jodorowsky talk about his own preparations for making the film, and how commercialized in comparison Lynch´s version turned out.
I found the first half of Mullholland Drive hilarious, the second half utter c++p. Perhaps I should check out the tv version.
The straight Story was great. Also because it was one of the very few films I watched together with my dad where both of us had a good time ;-) .
Time for a list:
Good vibe:
Lost Highway
The straight Story
Mullholland Drive (first half)
Very fascinating at least at the time it came out:
Twin Peaks (tv series)
Enjoyed:
Dune
The Elephant Man
Blue Velvet
Bad vibe:
Mullholland Drive (second half)
Eraserhead
Don´t really know where to put Twin Peaks Fire walk with Me
Sorry, @4EverBonded. I couldn't resist. ;-)
But I find that a movie with his name attached does generate my interest.
I still don't understand why a lot of people find Twin Peaks some sort of masterpiece. Some of the elements like the show's atmosphere are great, but the story itself... The first few episodes are very enjoyable, but after that it quickly turns silly.
That's just my own opinion though, I have a friend who really loves it. :)
He brought a certain menace and sexual energy to the role.
