I will have to go with Bela Lugosi's version - the forefather of all movie vampires. But Oldman's (with the hairstyle) I believe looks creepier.

However, there are other ones - notably Christopher Lee (Horror of Dracula), Oldman (Bram Stoker's Dracula), Langella (Dracula), etc.

So...who is your favorite and why?

Lugosi for nostalgia.

Oldman for panache. Plus, he really got me to root for him getting Mina. The heroes were just spiteful dill weeds. She wanted to be with him and they didnt respect her wishes.

Lugosi

Does it have to be 'Dracula', per se? If not: Schreck.

Probably Oldman's Dracula. I remember getting a good sense of his inner turmoil but at the same time you could see his deviousness and deception. It has been a long time since I've seen it though.

Oldman's Dracula is the creepiest thanks to great direction, operatic cinematography, and compelling effects.

The best performance? Louis Jourdan, from an obscure made-for-TV BBC movie called Count Dracula. It's available on youtube and is often cited as the most accurate adaptation of the book.

Jourdan's awesome because he's neither savage like Lee or Palance nor is he a sympathetic anti-hero like Langella or Oldman. He's cold, calculating, sly, and arrogant. Great understated menace there.

Gary Oldman by a country mile, that movie was awesome...except for Ryder and Reeves acting of course.... but Oldmans acting basically overrides all the negative; love the added love story too, one of the only times a added love story actually made a movie better IMO...

Shouldn't this be in the discussion page and not in the respect sub section?

I wish I could say Dracula Untold's Dracula, because his design was based on one of my favorite Dracula stories, but the movie wasn't up to par.

Have to go with the original and best; Lugosi. thumb up

I grew up watching the Christopher Lee movies, so he'll always be my favorite. Performance wise, you've gotta give it up to Oldman, though.

Goldman and not because he is from exactly the same part of London as me and I have had coffee in a cafe in Deptford High Street at the same time he was in there...

gary oldman was the best dracula because gary oldman

The best acted was Gary Oldman, but god damn Keanu Reeves for his f*cking accent in that film.

The most awesome was the one from Dracula Untold.

Jonathan Reese Myers short live Dracula was pretty good.

Just a few months, BBC took another shot at the Dracula mythos. I felt the actor who played him was superb.

I have yet to watch the dracula on netflix but soon i shall

Dracula Untold really comic-ized the vampire power set.
I was looking forward to seeing that Dracula in modern times.

Old Man Whirly!

Lugosi and Oldman

1931 Dracula with Bela Lugosi. Can't beat it! Maybe the Spanish version, maybe
