Bram Stoker's Dracula (tbc)

Francis Ford Coppola's gloriously designed film is the most recent of many cinematic takes on the perennial horror legend. Gary Oldman excels as the fanged one, with a capable turn from Anthony Hopkins, while Richard E Grant and Winona Ryder ham it up and Keanu is just terrible.

DVD Extras:

Filmographies, trailers, Making Of doc and costume designs.It was slated on release, but the original's lavish excess gets to shine through on the DVD format. There's also a very telling half-hour doc called Dracula: The Man, The Myth, The Legend, featuring a century of Dracula on film, Coppola's ego, Oldman's intensity and Hopkins' grumpiness .Columbia/ Universal has gone to a lot of trouble.
