Is there anyone, besides me, who has both read Dracula and seen Van Helsing? Because I'm watching it, here, and it's dodgy. Stoker fans expecting deeper insight into the character, or whatever, are gonna be disapointed. I think it's supposed to be something about the whole Harker and Mina and Lucy and Reinfield all them happened four hundred years ago, and Dracula didn't actually die, and Van Helsing has lost his memory and is working for this secret churchy organization or something. And now his name is Gabriel, not Abraham. I guess they figured that if they still use a biblical name, no one will notice. And Dracula can't turn into a werewolf anymore, he is killed by a werewolf. And they work in Frankenstein and Mr Hyde. And Daisy. And the princess lady going "I always wanted to see the sea," and Van Helsing going "Whatever, Legolas."
