That's why I have archives, so people can go through them and see what I said about movies they've seen. <br /><br />I've only read the book once, back in 2000 while on a college choir tour. I did not love it. But I don't exactly love any movie versions of it either, though I've only seen 3 or 4.

I can't remember really much of it except for Dracula's cape floating away at the end. <br /><br />As for Dracula in general, I prefer the book to any of the movie versions I've seen.

Actually, I found the book a bit dull, compared to what I was expecting. But it has some really great moral pondering and themes about good versus evil, Hamlette (Rachel)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11961916847426233995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3881774.post-88925418910336975392014-11-18T19:12:46.370-05:002014-11-18T19:12:46.370-05:00Internet friends are most definitely real friends!...Internet friends are most definitely real friends! That's so awesome and nice of Charity to do that for you. I admit that this particular story may be a little too creepy for my tastes, but I'm so glad you finally got the chance to watch it.
