Henry C This movie doesn't deserve the hate it gets it is a new idea of a struggling vampire with her deadly instincts this is a good story about a struggling vampire which the actress that played This role didn't want to play a villian because of typecasting which helped the fact that she was struggling being a vampire if you really want bella lugosi reprising his role I recommend abbot and Costello meet frankenstein which is a great watch and the lesbian thing isn't that obvious it is implied keep that in mind when you watch Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/07/24 Full Review Jay W When it comes to classic Universal Monster Movies, there is one franchise that reigns supreme. That franchise is Frankenstein. For just about every other film in this original cinematic universe there was a quick decline in quality, and this one is just one of the first that began the trend. "Dracula's Daughter" is the sequel to "Dracula"(1931). I give them credit that they try something new for their sequel. They are not in a hurry to resurrect Dracula and have him do his usual stuff. This one follows the titular daughter as she desires to no longer have the curse of being a vampire. This movie picks up right where the previous one ended. It goes through all the pointless paperwork that the previous one rightfully skipped. This movie takes a long time to get to the actual story and then by the time they get there it abruptly ends. Character motivations are unclear, and for a lot of the movie they are doing uninteresting things. The movie has some interesting ideas and unique characters. I cut it some slack considering that the movie is as old as it is. The concepts just do not come together in execution. This Dracula film really does drag. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 11/21/24 Full Review Dallas H It's a decent sequel to the original Universal Studios' Dracula movie. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/27/24 Full Review Blu B I appreciate they tried something completely original here. It's hit or miss here honestly. It captures some mood but besides the final 10 minutes or so it really never feels like a horror film. It feels like a moody drama more than anything. Holden as Dracula's Daughter isn't bad but doesn't have the same presnce as Legosi and never feels menacing. More moody than anything but not over the top. Everyone else isn't bad either but no one is as interesting as the Countess. There not wooden but just not that interesting. The biggest problem here is even though it's half decently made all around, it's not scary, creepy, or suspensful in the slightest. We already seen this plot done before in the first one, we already know she's a vampire so watching them investigate it has no suspense because we already know, and it's not shot in a creepy way. Outside the final ten minutes and opening it really doesn't feel like horror at all. Instead of trying to mimic the first plot with his daughter, they should've tried expanding her character and exploring the twisted relationship. As is, there really isn't any reason to watch this unless your a hardcore Universal Classic Horror fan or big fan of any actors in this. Most could skip this and not miss much.

Not some huge budget movie but great atmosphere Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 09/06/24 Full Review Andrew L The role Gloria Holden is most famous for is the role she didn't want and the most forgotten of Universal Studio's Classic Movie Monsters. This film is more famous for it's "lesbian scene" than anything else but there is so much more to this film than just that one part.
