Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

at first watch,this Mel Brooks spoof is quite funny.after watching a second time however,the movie left me cold.i guess the novelty wore off.most of the gags were not very funny,and the few funny bits were stretched a bit too thin.Leslie Nielson is having fun though.he can play the idiot very well,so I guess that's something.there is nothing wrong with the acting overall and I must admit Mel Brooks as Professor Van Helsing provided a few bright moments with his performance.otherwise,there isn't a lot to recommend here.i won't say it's awful,but it's not great either.for me,Dracula: Dead and Loving It is a 5/10

This is one of those movies who has unjustly been underrated by those who do not understand its type of artistic expression and humor.Leslie Nielsen is one of the best actors i have ever seen and he personified Drakula in this comedy movie(which i do not consider a comedy entirely but a horror movie with class) His performance was perfect and the funny scenes were funny but they had the feeling of silly rather then comic.Most of the movie in my honest feelings is not a comedy but a Elegant Vampire movie.It is a deep classic and i am sure that in time it will earn its rightful place in the hall of fame.GREAT!!

Like others, I had heard many awful things about Dracula: Dead and Loving It (1995). Given the quality of Mel Brooks' cinematic output after the 1980s, I assumed this was going to be terrible, but once I got twenty minutes in, I was surprised at how much I was laughing. This is a solid parody of the cinematic versions of Dracula, spoofing everything from the silent Nosferatu (1922) to the then-recent Ford Coppola version. Of course, most of the humor is derived from the now-campy 1931 classic, but luckily, the jokes are never mean-spirited and it's obvious (as it was in Young Frankenstein) that Brooks and the other cast members have a lot of love for the Universal Horrors of the 30s and 40s while admitting their hokier aspects.Sure, some of the gags are stupid (the enema running gag is the epitome of childish but hilarious humor). And some of the scenes seem to be there only to pad the running time (the first dance scene between Dracula and Mina (the one without the mirror) comes to mind). However, the actors all do amazing jobs, especially Peter MacNicol as Renfield, who does such a spot-on impersonation of Dwight Frye that you cannot help but be impressed. He also steals the show from even Leslie Nielson and Harvey Korman, both funny, funny men.Is it Young Frankenstein (1974)? Not at all, but it's a pleasant spoof with more hits than misses.

Anyone seen Scary Movie? Right, imagine that but with Mel Brooks' humor and one source material.It is the usual jokes that pop up in a Brooks picture, but without that great lead and spark that have people remembering Young Frankenstein or Blazing Saddles. Also, if you are unfamiliar with Dracula beyond dude is a vampire, then many of the references will fly over your head. Along with most of the entertainment I got out of watching this.I give this a five because there is nothing new here. I didn't dislike it. There is just nothing I haven't seen in other films he collaborated on.If you are channel surfing and see Dracula: Dead and Loving It watch if 1)You really like Brooks parodies 2)You are a Dracula fan and a comedy version of the story is appealing 3)There is nothing better on Otherwise, pass.
