Episodes 1 The Rules of the Beast Air date: Jan 4, 2020 For over 120 years, Bram Stoker's classic novel, Dracula, has inspired generations of filmmakers. Now the creators of Sherlock give the legend fresh blood! It's 1897 and St Mary's Convent in Budapest plays host to a desiccated husk of a human being, Jonathan Harker, an English lawyer with a strange and unsettling story to tell. Listening in is the kind and inquisitive Sister Agatha, a nun with an unusual interest in the creatures of the night. Invited to Transylvania to meet the reclusive Count Dracula, Harker finds himself trapped in an ancient, terrifying castle, a maze of mouldering corridors and vaults: a prison without locks. It soon becomes clear that he and his client are the only things living in the echoing halls of the moulding pile, and that the Count himself isn't living at all. In fact, Dracula is a 400-year-old vampire who has grown weary of his own exhausted country and has set his sights on the new world.

More Critic Reviews for Dracula Season 1 All Critics (45) | Top Critics (14) | Fresh (31) | Rotten (14) Bang deftly sells this intelligent take on the legend. Jan 4, 2020 | Full Review… Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com Top Critic This three-part adaptation of Bram Stoker's classic is a bloody masterpiece from beginning to end. Jan 3, 2020 | Full Review… David Sexton London Evening Standard Top Critic It's a bloodstained love letter to a classic, beautifully and delicately scented with just the faintest hint of ham gothic yarns need; a homage to all the great Counts who have gone before, but still entirely its own thing. Jan 2, 2020 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review… Lucy Mangan Guardian Top Critic The overwhelming sense was that everyone involved - with the exception of poor old Heffernan - was having enormous fun. It might not have been faithful to the original, but it was a scream. Jan 2, 2020 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review… Anita Singh Daily Telegraph (UK) Top Critic The culprit, though, is not the bite of a vampire, but rather showrunners Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss biting off more than they were willing to chew in the first three episodes. Jan 17, 2020 | Full Review… Emily Heller Polygon Dracula is a four and a half-hour long bait and switch, in which we were promised a devilishly seductive unholy creature ... and ended up with a dull, disappointing slog. Jan 16, 2020 | Full Review… Gena Radcliffe The Spool This was a Dracula to delight horror movie fans of all stripes. From the bone-chilling menace of Max Schreck in the silent classic Nosferatu almost 100 years ago, to the sheer camp silliness of Hammer horror's bosomy virgins, it paid homage to them all. Jan 2, 2020 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review… Christopher Stevens Daily Mail (UK) Every other actor in Dracula is performing for a different show entirely, but instead of being amusing, it's exhausting. Jan 14, 2020 | Full Review… Joshua Rivera The Verge This BBC One and Netflix series drips with pure atmosphere. Its look and tone are so rich that the more absurd aspects don't matter much. They actually become absorbed into the experience. Gore and class dance together in a macabre buffet. Jan 14, 2020 | Full Review… Alci Rengifo Entertainment Voice Despite some gorgeous gore for its gothic and modern horror settings, there's little to sustain anyone who dares dig their teeth into this limp and pale take on the character. Jan 25, 2020 | Full Review… Mark McPherson Film Inquiry It's a romp worthy of its true roots - not the florid, Victorian Gothic romance published by Bram Stoker in 1897, but those same, campy Sunday Night Horrors I grew up loving. Jan 21, 2020 | Full Review… Kylie Klein-Nixon Stuff.co.nz A new and fresh perspective of the Dracula's mythology. A necessary point of view of it. A must. [Full review in Spanish] Jan 14, 2020 | Rating: 4.5/5 | Full Review… Guillem Martinez Oya Cinematismo View All Critic Reviews (45) Audience Reviews for Dracula: Season 1 7h ago Totally fun! Love the Van Helsing and Dracula dynamics. Just relax and watch the show. Trish S 8h ago Many scenes are a littlebit easy but the whole picture of the film is very very fun and respect to the old theme and the novel. Wittaya L 14h ago He perdido mi tiempo, menuda mierda. Eva P 21h ago As an avid Dracula fan, the series absolutely delivers. While it's far from a faithful adaptation of the book, it doesn't try to be. It lets itself have fun, and tells a great compelling story in the process. It has some gory imagery, mixed with the delightful humor of Moffat and Gatiss. And the series has some absolutely brilliant references to other Dracula iterations, from the original book, to Christopher Lee, and Bela Lugosi. It's an all-round brilliant series, a great story, and it's one of my favorite versions of Dracula. Lucas d 22h ago The show is thrilling. The acting is brilliant. I really enjoyed all 3 episodes. Would really love to see more. D A 1d ago An Excellent version of DRACULA ! Claes Bang is one of the greatest Draculas ever !! He resembles Christopher Lee, Lon Chaney Jr., Bela Lugosi & Marlon Brando. and has reinvigorated Dracula for the 21st Century Chris A 2d ago It's a 5 star for me! It defeats the purpose just jumping straight into the plot! It builds and it's worth it! That final episode left me feeling like what! Why stop at 3 why couldn't there be more? Lol Amy M 2d ago This reiteration of the tale of Dracula is the best I have seen to date. Intoxicating and horrible at the same time- Claes Bang's performance brings justice to the role of the fictional warlord of Wallachia. jeffery h 3d ago First episode was amazing. A wonderful mix of campy humour, horror gore and British wit. Like Sherlock meets Buffy. Second episode was almost as good but lost the sparkle of the first episode. The third episode was tough to get through. There were so many good elements but brining Drac to modern day was a mistake and the show suffered for it. 9/10, 7.5/10, 5/10. Lindsay A 4d ago First episode great, second one mediocre, last one a turd.
