Apart from that, there's not a lot of similarity to the original book, Bram Stoker's Dracula. In the book Mina never meets Dracula, Harker lives, Dracula is killed back in Transylvania and no one had Syphilis. If you want to watch a film to know the original story - watch the one with Keanu Reeves as Harker - it stays a lot truer! But taking it just as a film - it's quite good.
I prefer Marc Warren in things like Hustle. This is very similar to his recent performance as Teatime in Terry Pratchett's Hogfather, both were a little disappointing. The actress playing Mina was also very weak. The real star of the show is Lucy, although I can't help thinking that they really wanted Kate Winslet.
It feels quite rushed, with an anticlimactic ending, maybe it would have been better as a mini-series. But good filmography, especially the small shots representing Dracula's true nature.
