I didn’t know you liked the Dracula (2020) series! Everyone I spoke to about it hated it 🥺, what were your thoughts on it?
yeah !! i coulda SWORE i talked abt it on here (to myself) for like,,,, a week straight after watching it.
dracula (vampirism in general) is a big part of my existence tbh. so i was so excited that this was coming out (i didn’t know it was BBC dracula until after i watched lol) but netflix teased it back in 2019 (?) and i was down cause it’s another dracula adaptation. but i don’t think i watched it until quarantine started cos i was focused on uni
[[ SPOILERS ]]
ANYWAYS,, i enjoyed every single moment of it. i think the casting and the way they wrote the classic characters was very, very well. but i personally think *every* adaptation of dracula is good.
i liked the settings and how they went about telling the initial story that we all know, but also adding its own pieces to the story. the mid(?) “season” shift surprised me soooo much — but it wasn’t horrible, it was very respectable and enjoyable. modernism isn’t something we get with dracula adaptations (it’s only in general vampire shows really) — because of the time shift i can understand why people wouldn’t enjoy it — it’s very much unlike anything we’ve seen from dracula or vamp series in general.
it was very enjoyable to watch and i loved every moment of it. however, the ending kinda upset me because i wanted more out of the series - maybe another season. i do *indeed* like the twist about dracula and how everything he’s come to know about himself is a blatant lie tho. actually, the ending was bittersweet so nah, i’m not disappointed lmaooo
