I’m sorry, I’ve read the book. This should in no way be called Bram Stoker’s. The only parts I think were handled well (and often forgotten) were Harker’s experience and Van Helsing’s single-mindeness. There was no need to add the “real” Vlad to it, or add in extra entries for Mina’s diary. I remember laughing out loud at the movie. I don’t reccomend it. Go read the book. Heck, go pick up the 1979 version. Or even the 1930 version. Just forget this one.
