The 3D version of the Prince of Darkness story harkens more to the classic perfection offered by Hammer Studios which is clearly where Dario Argento drew his inspiration from in away that only the master could, as apposed to the Keanu Reeves tale. Dario Argento’s “Dracula 3D” has that “must see, must have” quality that very few Dracula movies possess.
TRANSYLVANIA, 1893. One night in the woods adjacent to Passo Borgo, at the foot of the Carpazi mountains, a couple of young lovers, Tania and Milos, secretly meet. On her way home, Tania is chased and overcome by a “dark shadow” that kills her. In those days Jonathan Harker, a young librarian, arrives at the village hired by Count Dracula, a nobleman from the area. Tania’s body mysteriously disappears from the cemetery. In the meantime Harker, before going to Count Dracula’s castle, takes the opportunity to visit Lucy Kisslinger, his wife Mina’s best friend as well as the daughter of the local mayor.
